Sarah Octavia Upchurch married Roy Luther Belt, a descendant from Ophrey Belt who is somehow connected to the Belts of Rock in Cave, Hardin Co., IL. Ophrey (Ofrey, Ophery, Ophly and other various spellings) is found in the 1850 and 1860 Census Records living across the Ohio River in Crittenden Co., KY on the same page as Jonathan and both Arthur H. Belts. In fact, Ophrey (spelled Oprey in 1850) lives between Arthur H. (age 41 born TN and wife, Malinda, age 42) and Arthur H. (age 37 born TN and wife, Margaret, age 38.) Jonathan Belt (age 29 TN) and wife, Mary, are listed just above Arthur and Malinda. Much information can be found on the internet about the infamous Jonathan and his equally (if not more) notorious brother, Logan. I endeavor to find the exact connection.
