Bio
Sarah Jane Wilkerson Hampton Sammons was born 7 April 1865 in Alabama. She was the daughter of Thomas Jefferson Wilkerson and Nancy H. Cline. She married John W Hampton (pictured with her here), in Texas in 1882. They had seven children together, 3 girls and 4 boys. n) William Cornelius called "Neal or Neelee", Wallace Wesley called "Wesley or Wes", Vera Viola, Roy Leonard called "Leonard", Allen Wayman, Matilda Caroline, and Marietta. Her husband John was a preacher and also owned a store for a time in Waco. A few years after he died, she married again to J W Sammons in 1929. He had several children from a previous marriage leaving him a widower like her. She outlived her husbands, parents, several siblings and the worst part - four of her children which had to be very hard. Not to mention the Great-Depression. It all took a toll on her. She must have taken many family stories with her to the grave. They were all good people and very, very tough but life back then was hard. She was a trooper, I'm sure. You can tell from her picture here that she had Grit. - Rest in peace.
