This is what I know & found out Sarah Bokavar was born in Jamestown VA around 1706 & died 1763 she married Israel Friend born in 1690 making him 16 years difference could even be 20 yrs difference. first child born Jonas Friend 1730 Sarah was 24 (seems old for first child) in those days her last child on record was mary born in 1737 her 31 Life span was maybe 40. I do believe dates are wrong. Israel was a good friend with Shawnees well documented he could of was given Sarah as a gift (Native Wife) changed her name to Sarah to seem more white. I think the law stated after colonization Indians weren’t looked upon as equal. My line goes Sarah son Jacob had a daughter Anna friend who married Valentine Sevier who ggggrandson was James Sevier who was my Grandfather, My mother always said she was Indian born in Missouri family moved to Nebraska. Also Lula Kidd was Indian bloodline also
