BROYLES FAMILY TYPESCRIPT by Dr. Arthur Leslie Keith
w/ additions by John Kenneth Broyles, Sr.
"Susanna Yeager (daughter of Solomon Yeager and wife Elizabeth Broyles) was
born about 1785, died in about 1888, at the age of 102.
She was born in Washington Co., Tn. and died in Laclede Co., Mo. The writer
has a copy of her letter, dated June 29, 1884 from Delta, Laclede Co., Mo. to
her son Richard Broyles, in which she states that she is in her ninety-ninth
year.
If she died at age 102 or 103, as others state, then she died in 1887-1888
