SARAH ELIZABETH ODOM of DOOLY CO., GEORGIA




I went through my photographs and found the picture of John and Sarah Law Odom's daughter Sarah Elizabeth Odom born Nov 26, 1853 in Dooly Co., Georgia. She died Nov 21, 1943 in Crisp Co., Georgia four months after I was born. She married John Henry Shrouder on Jan 1, 1874 in Georgia. He was born Nov 28, 1851 and died July 17, 1905. They had six daughters including my great grandmother Sarah (Sallie) Barbara Shrouder who my mother (Sallie) and myself (Barbara) were named after. That is my grandmother in the background. This picture was taken about 1910 when my grandmother was 14.
She had 58 grandchildren, thirty-three great grandchildren and five great great grandchildren at her death.
