Info from Hearne, "History and Genealogy of the Hearne Family", Pages 584,585 --They had 8 sons and 4 daughters.

Sarah married Joshua Bruce 1 son of William Bruce and Annie Ballard on 17 Sep 1801 in , Wythe, Virginia, USA. Joshua was born 2 on 23 Oct 1778 in , Albermarle, Virginia, USA. He died on 23 Aug 1865. The parent relationship has been challenged.

BIRTH: "History of Bland County" pg 90. Consistent with 1850 Wythe Census, pg 677, where he is 71.

MARRIAGE: "History of Bland County" pg 90.

DISCREPANCY: History of Bland / James Taylor Adams say father is George. Paul Bastic says William Bruce is parent. See family record of Paul Bastic.

PARENTS: History of Bland County suggests the father is George, but famil y record of the Joshua Bruce family provided by Paul Bastic (photocopy in my possession) indicate that William Bruce and Annie Ballard were parents. I find this very plausible since Mary named a child after Joshua.

PARENTS: James Taylor Adams says his parents are George and Mary Stubblefield Bruce.

Joshua Bruce was one of the first ministers in the Bland County area. He was lisenced to preach on July 4, 1812. His home on Walkers Creek was used for "Class Meetings" and preaching services. He was Methodist. ("History of Bland County" pg. 283)

Her share is given to Harry Baker & William Baker, infants. Since William is mentioned as an infant here, his birth must be within 10 years.

CHILDREN: There are three lists of children: "Last Will and Testament of
Joshua Bruce", "History of Bland County" and "Brief History of Hearnes".
The will lists children in birth order and last names (spouses) of females.
Bland History comes with dates, History of Hearnes lists spouse.
