    Wife died, from "privation", while he was away in the War, he packed up and moved to Texas with his children.
    He married some woman in Texas and when he died, she took everthing and left the two children on their own.

    From Linda (Garland) Hayes: According to the information that I have been able to discover, Samuel Jackson Garland took his family and migrated to Texas sometime after 1877. In this party whould have been at least Jack, Sarah Elizabeth ?Bettie? (2nd wife), Martha E., Nancy F., Jesse J., J. Daniel (3 children from 1st marriage and infant son from 2nd marriage), Mattie Hambrick (sister-in-law), and a second sister-in-law who may have been named Feby Hambrick. We don?t know if she died or married prior to the 1880 census.

    The 1880 Tarrant County, Texas census list all of Jack?s family except Feby Hambrick.

    Notes:

    William Speight was born est 1778, in NC. His first born was Albert, born in Wake County in 1800. William then moved to Dickson County TN where the remaing three of his sons were born. (Jesse, William, Arthur). Two fellow researchers have said his wife's name is Mary Berton (or Benton), or Sally Bish. I have found a William & Sally Bish, but cannot prove them this is the only marriage or relative of mine. I have found little info on Mary Berton (or Benton).

    WILLIAM SPEIGHT settled in Dickson County from Wake County NC around 1800 or a little after. An old biography written by Tom Speight's great uncle said William settled on the "Westside of the Harpeth River around 1800". He had a son, Albert S. born around 1800. His other sons: Jesse M. b. 1805 Dickson, John T. (Alsey) b.abt 1807 Dickson, William D. b. 2-15-1811

    William married Sarah "Sallie" BURT on 16 Sep 1799 in Wake County, North Carolina. Sarah (daughter of John BURT, Jr. and Priscilla SENTER, Hardy) was born in 1778 in Raleigh, Wake, North Carolina; died on 16 May 1846 in Dickson, Dickson, Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  8. 15.  Sarah "Sallie" BURT was born in 1778 in Raleigh, Wake, North Carolina (daughter of John BURT, Jr. and Priscilla SENTER, Hardy); died on 16 May 1846 in Dickson, Dickson, Tennessee.

    Other Events:

    • FamilySearch ID: MY5B-BNF
    • Name: Sallie
    • _UID: A47C4EFA78C84C7EAFDEE072C94DE962B25B

    Notes:

    Named in her father's will as "daughter Sally Hunter" (second husband).

    Surname variation: Bish, Burt, Birt

    I believe that Sarah and her children are living in the household of Washington Hunter in the 1820 census. Washington Hunter was made guardian of her 2 youngest boys.
