Kent (?),
Your grandmother was at least partially right, from what I can prove.
I've gotten some information on the Says from other researchers as well as independent work.The Sarah Say that married David McKissick (I have yet to get definitive proof of this, despite my efforts.They were my 4th great grandparents.) seems to come from the following line:
James Say and Sarah Stockwell (no birth or death dates)
Their child (I assume they had more)
James Say (b. 1742, mifflin, PA)
m. Mary Reed (b. 1748, Mifflin)
Children:
David Say (b. 1771)
Christianna (Christine or Christina) b. 1774
SARAH SAY (b. 1776)
Rosanna Say (b. 1778)
James Say, Jr. (b. 1780)
John Say (b. 1785)
That's what I've gotten from "cousins."What I've found independtly is:
Pennsylvania Census, 1772-1890:
There are 6 James Say's and 1 James Say, Jr. between 1820-1860 living in various counties (Venango, Butler, Clarion,) in PA.
From "The History of Venango County" I have:
"David Say, born in the Kishocoquillas valley, Mifflin PA, was the son of James Say, a native of England and a connection of the family of Lord Say."(This was for Scrubgass Township.)From the same "History Of" but for Richland Township: "The pioneers of the region about Nickleville were James Say....James Say was the son of David Say, who settled in Scrubgrass in 1796."
There's nothing written about a boat sinking but it doesn't mean it isn't true!
