52 Ancestors - Week 22: #29, Sarah (Knapp) Auble (1818-after 1900)

Amy Johnson Crow suggested a weekly blog theme of "52 Ancestors" in her blog post Challenge:  52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks on the No Story Too Small blog.  Here is my ancestor biography for week #22:

Sarah (Knapp) Auble (1818-after 1900) is #29 on my Ahnentafel List, and is my 2nd great-grandmother. She married #28 David Auble (1817-1894) in 1844.

I am descended through:

*  their son, #14, Charles Auble (1849-1916), who married  #15 Georgianna Kemp (1868-1952) in 1898.
*  their daughter, #7 Emily Kemp Auble (1899-1977), who married #6 Lyle Lawrence Carringer (1891-1976) in 1918.

* their daughter, #3 Betty Virginia Carringer (1919-2002), who married #2 Frederick Walton Seaver (1911-1983) in 1942.
*  their son, #1 Randall J. Seaver (1943-....)


To create this post, I made an Individual Summary report in RootsMagic 6, then saved it into an RTF file.  I then copied and pasted the Person, the Individual Fact List, the Marriages/Children, the General Notes, and the Source Citations into this blog post.  Unfortunately, the source citations superscripts did not survive this process as superscripts, so I put them in brackets in the lists and notes below, and without brackets in the Source Citation list.  I have images of many of these records, but have not included them in this blog post due to the length of the post.  Many of them have been transcribed or shown in Amanuensis Monday and Treasure Chest Thursday posts.

4)  NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):

Sarah Knapp was born in January 1818, probably in Woodbridge, Middlesex County, New Jersey, daughter of William and Sarah (Cutter) Knapp.[1-2]  Sarah Knapp was age 30 in the 1850 U.S. census, age 39 in the 1860 U.S. census records, age 50 in the 1870 U.S. census, age 62 in the 1880 U.S. census, and age 82 in the 1900 U.S. census, which also said she was born in January 1818.  All records indicate that she was born in New Jersey. 

Sarah G. Knapp married David Auble in 1844, son of John and Ann (Row) Auble, in Newton, New Jersey.[1-2]

David Auble's 1894 obituary[2] states that:

"He was married in 1844 to Miss Sarah Knapp, of Newton N.J., who is a sister of C.C. Knapp of this city and also a sister of Judge Manning M. Knapp, at one time an eminent jurist of New Jersey, who held the Supreme Court bench of that state for seventeen years and died suddenly in the courtroom two years ago."

There is no marriage record available, but their first child was born in about 1845, so 1844 is approximately correct.

In the 1850 United States census, the David Auble family resided in the West Ward of Newark, Union County, New Jersey.[4]  The household included:

*  David Auble -- age 32, male, a boot and shoe man, born in NJ

*  Sarah Auble -- age 39, female, born NJ
*  Wm A. Auble -- age 15, male, born NJ, attended school
*  Mary F. Auble -- age 13, female, born NJ, attended school

*  Anna Auble -- age 1, female, born NJ

In the 1870 United States census, the Daniel Auble family resided in Terre Haute city, Vigo County, Indiana.[6] The household included:

*  Daniel Auble (perhaps this is a census taker's error for David, it is obviously the David Auble family) -- age 53, male, a boot and shoemaker, with $2,500 in real estate and $200 in personal property, born NJ
*  Sarah Auble -- age 50, female, keeping house, born NJ
*  Mary Auble -- age 23, female, a teacher, born NJ

*  Anna Auble -- age 10, female, at home, born NJ, attended school
*  Cora Auble -- age 8, female, at home, born NJ, attended school

In the 1880 US census, the David Auble family resided at 40 Chestnut Street in Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana.[7] The household included:

*   David Auble -- white, male, age 63, married, shoemaker, born NJ, father and mother born NJ

In the 1900 US Census, the remnant of the David Auble family resided at 411 Chestnut Street in Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana.[3]  The household included:

*  Frances M. Auble - head of household, female, white, born Oct 1846, age 53, single, born NJ, parents born NJ, a teacher, works in a school, owns home free of mortgage
*  Sarah G. Auble - mother, white, female, born Jan 1818, age 82, widow, 6 children born, 5 living, born NJ, parents born NJ
*  Catherine Auble - sister, white, female, born Oct 1851, age 48, single, born NJ, parents born NJ 

In the 1910 US Census, Frances and Catherine Auble resided with their sister, Anna Buntin, in Bushnell, McDonough County, Illinois.

Sarah (Knapp) Auble's death date and place are not known, but she probably died between 1900 and 1910 in or near Bushnell, McDonough County, Illinois or Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana.
