This is the tombstone of Sarah Amanda Waterman Engle. She is my 2nd great grand-aunt. Yes, you are reading those dates correctly! 1836-1939…This remarkable lady lived to be 103 years old!
Sarah was born on March 15, 1836 in Coolville, Athens, Ohio and passed away on December 5, 1939 in South Pasadena, Los Angeles, California. She is buried at Mountain View Cemetery in Altadena, Los Angeles, California. Sarah parents’ are Asher Waterman and Bathsheba Paulk.
I will definitely be writing a follow-up post (or two) about Sarah.
Sarah Amanda (Waterman) Engle |
