Note

Also see: Personal records of Linda Whalen Goda Sarah Jane is remembered as petite, beautiful, intimidating and very dignified. She was left a widow at 44, after David's tragic death in 1885. She remarried in 1899 to widower Josiah Rice. Sarah Jane is buried with David Laird Lee in the front row of the church yard at 'Lee Chapel' (Sutton). The remarriage to Josiah Rice in 1899 is not yet entered as a family in this tree.

Note

Research log, 2 Oct 2026: Google search "Sarah Jane" Sargent Lee 1841 1906 "David Laird Lee" Meigs County Ohio "Josiah Rice". Result: one hit, the Genealogy.com page "Descendants of Abraham Dains", which repeats the same family narrative (remarriage to widower Josiah Rice in 1899; buried with David Laird Lee at Lee Chapel, Sutton). It looks like the origin of the note above, not an independent record. Birth and death dates remain uncited; no original record seen.
