| 2. | Albert Newton Saddler was born on 15 Mar 1907 in Lincoln Co, WV (son of James Saddler and Octavia Egnor); died on 07 Dec 1950 in Yawkey, Lincoln Co, WV; was buried on 09 Dec 1950 in Beech Grove Cemetery, Yawkey, Lincoln Co, WV. Notes:
Birth:
Albert's death certificate states his birth date as 15 Mar 1917. Very likely, this is a transcription error. Since this would make his mother 60 or greater at his birth, it is believed this is in error. This is confirmed by the 1910 census (on pg.2 of 2), in which he is given as age 3, placing his birth year at 1907. (Birth also given as March 7, 1906-07.) .png)
Albert married Mary Della Mays. Mary (daughter of David Daniel Mays and Cora Ann Kingery) was born on 8 Dec 1909 in Tango, Lincoln Co, WV; died on 16 Oct 1985 in Yawkey, Lincoln Co, WV; was buried in Beech Grove Cemetery, Yawkey, Lincoln Co, WV. [Group Sheet]

Doug Couch notes May 2009:
From various records found, the apparent order of marriages is 1)Smith, 2)Horton, 3)Plumley, 4)Saddler. Relatives of the time say there was an additional husband, Sutliff...order not known. She is said to be Indian...said to be full-blood Cherokee. For many years we did not know her given or surname. In late 2008, information surfaced showing her as Octavia Egnor, confirmed by several census records, etc.

Birth:
No record has been found for Octavia's birth as an Egnor or death with any last name ascribed to her spouses. Family lore has it that she was an Indian of Cherokee descent, but no further information was given. As she doesn't show in the 1860 census and then shows in the 1870 census as 14 years old, it is possible she was informally adopted into the family. Without U.S., VA/WV or Cherokee records showing this, it is not possible to determine.
If she was Cherokee, none of the ancestors shown here were actually hers...unless some of them were actually Cherokee.
Interestingly, her grandchildren through her daughter, Mary Frances Horton Atkins, never provided either a first or last name or a specific tribe for Octavia when asked, even though decades later it came to light that Mary's oldest daughter at least, did know her name and tribe. This would be congruent with her children instructing her grandchildren throughout their lives to not reveal this information to avoid persecution and possible relocation as an Indian.
Information previously unavailable: A granddaughter of Octavia whose mother grew up away from her siblings after her parents died in 1928 & 1931, said that DNA testing has been done by one of the granddaughter's siblings, and no Native American blood was indicated. Those grandchildren had also been told about being descended from Native Americans (as had the granddaughter's mother's siblings). If more information comes to light and is suitable for showing here, I will add it at that time.
Notes:
4th or 5th Husband to Octavia
