About Sarah Ledford
Interesting incident occurred while Benjamin M. Ledford was in the service. He was visiting Sarah's father's home in Loudon County Tennessee. While there, Union troops attacked the house. How he had time before the soldiers came into the house trying to kill any of the Confederate soldiers they found, is not exactly known. But the story has been passed down about how he escaped death. He donned the garb of a woman, and with a bonnet on, was at the dough board kneading bread when the invasion occurred. His life was spared, and for good cause. He married Sarah Blair , daughter of his friend in whose houwse he had escaped death.
