Notes:  Elkanah was a "fake" preacher from New York.  Francis Bird, Sr., insisted that Sarah divorce Elkanah and Frank, Sr., paid the $5.00 that it cost.  On 05 Feb 1848 Sarah divorced Elkanah and had her name restored to Bird.  Can you imagine the gossip?  Divorce was rare then and Sarah's father was an ordained minister!
