Sarah Graddy was Pearce or Pierce's second wife; therefore, some of the children in the list may be her stepchildren by her husband's prior marriage. She was widowed by 1840.[5]
Estate File

Sarah "Sally" (Graddy) Mozingo died about 1841, noting this estate might be thought to be that of the daughter of the same name, but the context of the document seems to clearly indicate that Sally Mozingo was the mother of the children named in the document as heirs. It is noted that Rich Hinson (sp?), Benaph Herring (sp?) and Kinchin Smith (sp?) posted bond as executors and administrators, and that Graddy Mozingo was the purchaser of several liquidated items in the record.

Perhaps most significantly, land was distributed to Winniford Mozingo, Anna (Mozingo) Anderson (wife of John Anderson) and Graddy Mozingo, although the document is difficult to read.

In another plea in the documents, Ally (Mozingo?) Robinson is named as a petitioner, which tends to suggest that daughter Sarah was not the decedent in this estate liquidation, but rather the subject of this profile, Sarah "Sally" (Graddy) Mozingo, mother of the Mozingo children named, was. Note also:

... Sally Mozingo has departed this life intestate leaving your Petitioners together with Pierce Mozingo [apparent son, still alive] and Susan Ward formerly Susan Mozingo wife of Lewis Ward her heirs at law...[3]
