In What Year Did It Happen?

[RJNorton]

You nailed it, Rob.

Sarah became pregnant in 1827. In January, 1828, Sarah experienced severe labor problems. Her husband, Aaron Grigsby, ran to his parents house for help. Eventually Sarah was loaded onto a sled and taken to the Grigsby home. A doctor and several midwives were called, but it was too late. On Sunday, January 20, 1828, Sarah died in childbirth. Her child, a boy, was stillborn. She was only 20 years old.
