She was born Bullenbroke Hundred, Talbot Co., MD and died ca.1840-1850, (probably by 1843), Oskaloosa Twp., Clay Co., IL.. Mrd, (1784 Washington Co., PA), Daniel Rawlings, (1755/65-abt.1803). They moved to Kentucky, by flatboat, c.1786, with her father and other family members.

Sarah and Daniel lived on the Kentucky River, below the mouth of Mill Creek., in what was Henry, but is now Carroll Co., KY. Daniel Rawlings was a devout Methodist and often held services in his home. It's said their infant children and relatives were buried in his garden. There are reasons to believe this the origin of what became the DeMint Cemetery. It seems certain that Daniel was buried in the same location.

Sarah must be the white female, over 45, in her son Levi's home in Westport, Henry, (now Oldham), Co., KY., in the 1820 census. She moved with Levi, as well as her daughter Elizabeth (Rawlings) Meeks, to Oskaloosa Twp., Clay Co., IL., about 1830. The 1840 census shows a white female, age 70-79, in Levi's household, in Oskaloosa Township, who must be Sarah. Levi Rawlings was in Marion Co., IL by 1850, and married his 3rd wife there May 1843, so a death date between 1840 and 1843, seems most likely.

Sarah and Daniel's known children were:

married his 2nd cousin Mary Rawlings, (1794-1872), and was the father of at least 10 children.

Elizabeth Rawlings, (abt.1790/96 KY - abt.1850 probably Oskaloosa Twp.,
Clay Co., IL), who married John Meeks, (b.abt.1792). She taught in the first
