William H. Wilhite and Sarah Ann “Sallie” Stone Wilhite.

William Wilhite was born in the Cherry Creek Community 28 Feb 1840 and died 4 Nov 1887. He is buried on the Mackie Farm just off Cherry Creek and Plum Creek Rd in Sparta. Sarah Ann Stone or Sallie as she was known was born 10 Feb 1846 in Sparta and lived in Stone Hollow and died 29 Apr 1928. She is buried in Highland Cemetery in Sparta.
William was one of the few soldiers in Tennessee who fought for the Union, Co B, First Tennessee Mounted Infantry.
William and Sarah Ann lived on Cherry Creek Road in Sparta.
I would also be looking for photos of any of their children Sampson, Lula Dee, Stone, Jennette Lucy (who is my G Grandmother), Lucy, Willie Ann, and George.
I have had no luck so far in acquiring these photos. I do have pictures of Sarah Ann’s parents Iredell and Jane “Jennie” Stone.
Any help would be appreciated.
