RICHARDS, SPRINGER

A list of marriages from the "loose papers" of Bedford Co. was postedrecently. One entry on that list was the marriage of Sarah A.Springer toJames F. Richards, 27 Jan 1858. I suspect and hope to confirm thatthisSarah S. Springer was the dau. of Dennis Springer and Sally Copper.Theirdaughter Sarah was born 17 Aug 1836, and so a 1858 marriage datewould work for her. The last record I have found for Sarah was whenher guardian lastreported in 1854. Does anyone know any thing further about Sarah andJamesF. Richards??
