Sarah B. Dibrell married **John Wilkiins Whitfield 27 Apr 1853 in Davidson, Tennessee.

In the 1860 Census Sarah and John W. Whitfield (registrar land office) lived in Kickapoo, Leavenworth, Kansas Territory along with John T. Whitfield and J.A. (John A). Census shows that everyone in this household was born in TN.

In the 1870 census Sarah lived in Lavaca County with John W. and their son John A. Whitfield. Another Whitfield family was their neighbor. This family included: Mary D (head of house) and children Charles Tivadar, Cliff, John S, Victor, Laberta, Henry and Sarah S.

The 1880 Census list Sarah as a widow. She still lives in Lavaca County. John A and his wife Lena are included in the household as well as Sadie (2 yrs) and John W. (7 mos.)

I did not see a census for them in 1890. The next census shows that Sarah along with her son, John A and his family moved to Devine. John W (1880 Census) is no longer listed. John A and Lena have the children Sadie, Mamie, George, Ruth and John E. In addition, Sarah's sister lives with them and her name is Lucinda Herd (age 75).
