Into the Life
Sarah Carpenter was born around 1946 to Williamson Ludwell Carpenter and Sarah "Sallie" McIntyre in Stanly County, North Carolina. There are some records that show Sarah's name as "Hortense", such as the death certificates of her children; however, it is possible this was just her middle name. On July 16th, 1976, she married Andrew Jackson Hill in Stanly County. She was 29 years old at the time and her husband was 21 years old. They had 3 children together: William Allen Hill (born 1877), James Henry Hill (born 1879), Rosa Agnes Hill (born 1884). Sarah Carpenter is believed to have died some time around 1890; however, there are a lack of records (Death certificates weren't required by North Carolina until 1913). Her marriage certificate with Andrew Jackson Hill is attached below.
