Notes for: Sarah Spence Mott
As stated in her marriage bond of Sep 14 1807, Sarah Spence Mott was the ward of James Fleming. Confusingly, in her marriage record three days later, she was identified as Hannah Spence Mott. No other reference to her as Hannah has been found. She is sometimes incorrectly identified by researchers as Sarah Fleming.
