Sarah was the second wife of George Washington Poisel. Sarah's first husband was Cyrus Mitchell (1826-1855). They were married on 4-5-1849 in Champaign Co., OH. Sarah & Cyrus had two daughters: Rebecca J (born 1850) and Sarah E (born 1853). Cyrus died in Jasper Co., IN. Around 1856 in Jasper Co., IN, Sarah married George Poisel. Sarah & George had 6 children: Charles A., William Perry, Anna, Olive W. "Ollie", Martha J., and Alvina "Allie". John W. Poisal, Gerald Poisel, and Zera Howe have all listed that there was a William Poisel. There is a small possibility that this William was stillborn or died in infancy. However, after researching this for over 30 years, I believe that the William that was listed by these 3 genealogists was actually William Arthur Poisel. William A. (Arthur) Poisel was a son of George and his third wife, Alvina "Allie" Poisel.
