Sarah Campbell was born September 26, 1823, in Springfield Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, the daughter of William and Catharine Kayser Campbell. Circa 1848, she married Joseph Klein Trauger, son of John and Elizabeth Klein Trauger. Joseph and Sarah were the parents of 10 children: William Campbell, John, Malinda, Henry Campbell, Elizabeth, Elias, John, Amanda Campbell, Milton and Sarah Jane Trauger. Sarah was my great-great-great-grandmother.
Death notice for Sarah Campbell Trauger from the Doylestown Democrat of December 21, 1869:
"Trauger---In Nockamixon, on December 2nd, 1869, of consumption, Sarah, wife of Joseph Trauger, aged 46 years, 3 months and 26 days."
Nockamixon Lutheran Church records her age at death also as 46 years, 3 months and 26 days. So, I'm calculating her date of birth by this, as opposed to age on tombstone.
