Notes
General:
Sarah was born January 18, 1852 to Franklin Corbett and Winnie Stuart in Georgia.

The 1860 Census for Echols Co., GA, list Sarah E. eldest child of Francis and Winnie as 8 years old, female, b. GA.

In 1861 Minutes from Antioch Church mention Sarah Corbett with a date of May 1861. No other details given.

1877. There is a mention of "Sisters Sallie Corbet, Kizzie Outlaw, and Mary Jones made acknowledgments of dancing and _____." Would have been 27 and she lived in the general area. She probably married a few months later to Allen and in Jan of 1878 she had their first child. Maybe she was dancing with husband to be Allen.

During the August 1877 minutes there was a mention that Sister Sallie Carter came under the watchcare of the church.

In January of 1879 Sally Carter was excommunicated from the church.

She passed away March 12, 1929. Sara is buried head to head with her husband Allen W. Carter in Carter Family Cemetary, next to Sardis Church, in eastern Echols county (Wrights Chapel section) District 1211 near Lake Park GA.

Sarah's headstone states the date of death as 1/18/1909 but since there is a record of her in the "List of Widows of Ex-Confederate Soldiers Living in this, Echols County, January 1, 1918" I must assume the death was really as 3/12/1929 as stated in the Chinkypin Vol. 3 #3.
