Hello:

Would you happento know if there was a Sallie Eans in your family that left Virginia sometime before 1872? I have no information on her Eans Family.

Sallie Eans, my great great grandmother, married Alexander McFerrin in 1872, in Fayette County, Tennessee. She was born in 1852. According to the 1900 census record, they had 12 children together, only 9 of which were living at the time. They had eight sons and one daughter. Their names were Wilbur, my great grandfather, Willie, Eugene, Melvin, Alexander Jr., Iverson, Thom, and James. Their daughter was named Naomi.

Sallie died sometime about 1907. Her daughter, Naomi died shortly after 1900 in her early teens. Alexander and Sallie are the great grandparents of Bobbie McFerrin, the singer of "Don't Worry, Be Happy."
