Sarah Vail, b 1744, was a Quaker, daughter of Stephen and Esther Smith Vail; she married Richard Hankerson (Hankinson) in 1769.They left shortly
after by ship from NY for Charleston.The Vail family never heard from them again. Richard was not a Quaker and I am wondering if there was a family rift because of that. He also became a prominent man in Barnwell,SC. Sarah was not found in the 1800 census with him and I
assume she had died by then. Richard married again to Ann Smith but he
died before 1810.
