- 2774. JEDEDIAH ("JEDDIAH") SAYRE was born 10 August 1828 on his father's farm on Pleasant Creek, Barbour, West Virginia. He was the son of Solomon and Mary Ann (Ball) Sayre. Jeddiah grew up on the family farm, part of which is now the headwaters of Tygart Lake. Jeddiah was a stonemason, a woodsman and a farmer.
Jedediah Sayre married 1st, on Pleasant Creek 1 January 1851 ARAH JANE PROUDFOOT, who was born 26 September 1828 to James and Elizabeth (Read) Proudfoot.

They attempted to settle in New Virginia, Iowa.

This account was given in 1971 by a descendant, Clarence Sayre (Will's son) - then age 90.
