Note that Micajah Cuicero's wife is named Sabre in 1880, and in 1870 it was spelled Sabra. Her grave has only initial S J. Her name has been reported on her Find-a-Grave memorial as Sallie Jane Coggins. Sallie is normally a nickname for Sarah. Perhaps she chose or was given Sallie as a nickname, even though it appears her name was Sabra.
