I have Sarah's birthdate as 01 Feb 1820 but it may be wrong if your's comes from the gravestone. Nancy is the only child I have listed for her although I have not been able to find much on John and Sarah Pogue. I have no dates for Nancy and the only date I have for John Pogue is b. Nov 1818.

Robert Sweet married Delilah Bookout ca. 1861 and they had daughters: Tennessee and Melvina. They had sons: John, James Marion, and William. Robert was married previously to Phoebe Edith Gillmore and they had 8 children. Two of their daughters married Bookouts. Margaret Polina Sweet married William Elvis Bookout (illegitimate son of Susannah Bookout born several years before her marriage to Jesse Cornelison) and Nancy Emeline Sweet married William Emerson Bookout (son of James Oliver Bookout and Della Elizabeth Wood). Their sister Elizabeth F. Sweet had two illegitimate children, one Berry Bookout by sister Margaret Polina's husband William Elvis Bookout, and one Edith Caroline Sweet who married Albert William Brisbin, by her sister Nancy Emeline's husband William Emerson Bookout. Robert and Phoebe also had two daughters that married Swearengins, Mary Angeline who married James Ellison "Curly Jim" Swearengin and Sarah Jane who married Jordan Jackson Swearengin. Robert and Phoebe also had sons: George Washington Sweet, Robert M. Sweet, and Samuel C. Sweet. I do not know who Robert Sweet's parents were.

I have more detailed info on many of these people.
