• Notes

  Source is AAF record A-3 in file. Daughter of Jacob and Sarah Ann (Hidy) Yeager. Married 2nd, William Karr or Kerr. Following the death of her husband, John, with three sons, she moved to Washington Court House, Fayette Co., OH, where some of the Hidy families had gone Information from family records of Dolores J. Tacy Russell of Lebabon, PA, 3 Feb. 1993 in file. Ref: Jim and Rita Wooddell records, January 1994, indicate that a deed in 1872 shows that Margaret, Joel, and Brazilla Adolphus were living in Kansas. A reprint (Pocahontas Times in 1932) of a letter from Margaret was in the scrapbook of WBH's Aunt Eliza. Dated 22 August 1864, it was written in Jeffersonville, OH and was very concerned with war news from home. Margaret described Ohio in glowing terms and said that the boys liked it there. She said that they would probably stay there until the war was over and then go further west.
