Wife of John McCahon

Family history relates that Sarah was so grieved over the death of her son, James, that she kept a lit candle in her window until her own passing. At one time their home caught fire, but I cannot confirm the reason---maybe an unattended candle?

James is recognized on the Pennsylvania Memorial at Gettysburg, PA.
