Sarah Herritage was the second wife of Richard Caswell.
Sources for the location of her final resting place:
Report on the Search to Locate the Grave of Richard Caswell 1729-1789 by Jerry L. Cross, Research Branch, N.C. Office of Archives and History (1999). This Report includes the information that Miss Sue Bond [a descendant of Governor Caswell] made a list of people buried in the Richard Caswell cemetery dated April 3, 1914. The Report states that the list is now in the Richard Caswell Papers at the Southern Historical Collection, Wilson Library, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The Report states that sixteen graves were listed including Richard Caswell and his second wife Sarah Herritage.
Subsequently, ECU graduate student Sheri Balko published a thesis in 2009 regarding renewed excavation in 2008 at the Caswell cemetery site. A grave believed to be Governor Richard Caswell's was excavated and portions of a wooden coffin were found, a piece of yellow pine wood believed to be the bottom of a casket.
