Sarah Wacoser 1 2 3
It may be possible that the "Sarah Wacoser" who was married to George Washington Pendleton in 1887 was the same Sarah C. Chapman who was married to George Washington Wacaster who died in 1886. The approximate birth dates match as does the location of Catawba County. In addition, it was her sister, Francis Chapman who was originally married to George Washington Pendleton and when Francis died in 1885 it was very convenient for the widowed sister, Sarah Wacaster, to remarry to Pendleton. Otherwise, there are no census records for the widow Sarah Wacaster after her husband died in 1886. If she did indeed remarry, then her census records continue under the name of Pendleton. The only unknown part is what would have happened to her children after she was remarried to George Washing Pendleton. She had 6 children under 16 years of age at the time of the possible remarriage to Pendleton in 1887. None of the children are mentioned in any census records for Pendleton in 1900 or 1910. There were multiple Wacaster siblings living in the same area so perhaps one of the Wacaster siblings took custody of the children.
