In 1889, Sally married George Franklin Hill. The couple was noted with their infant daughter in Sulphur Township, Grant Co., AR in the 1900 census records. However, based on the birth location of the next child, the family moved to Hopkins Co., TX by 1902 and this is where they settled down to raise their family. According to Mrs. D. W.

Nannie Bradford was an even tempered woman. She married James (Jim) Bradford. Jim Bradford was one of the best farmers in the county. His first seven children were girls and each could plow with mules as well as any boy. The Bradford home was a gathering center. There were always birthday dinners, Easter egg hunts, watermellon cuttings and Jim was always 'it' in the first game of blindman's buff. All preachers and peddlers were welcome to spend the night at the Bradford house.

Nannie died in 1932 at the age of 58.
