About Sarah Jane Fender

Sarah lost her birthright as a Quaker and was disowned for marrying contrary to her religion, as Nimrod was not a Quaker. She must have left the Quaker religion as she is known to have been a member of the Flat Rock Primitive Baptist Church. (ref) Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy, Vol I, NC: "1785, 11, 26. Sarah dis."
