                            From S.N.
                            Robert Smith Russell married 1st Hannah Johnson in 1841 --( MB413167 marriage
                            record).            
                            She died and then Robert married Sarah Johnson abt 1848 who was probably Hannah's
                            sister but I have not pursued that line. I did not find a marriage record for Robert and Sarah
                            Johnson so I assume she came to Pennsylvania and they were married here. She possibly
                            came to take care of her "sister" before Hannah died.

                            Sarah Johnson was witness to the Robert & Hannah marriage on the 18 May 1841,
                            along with William Richard Maybrook.
