Miss Elizabeth Sarah Faber, c1846. Elizabeth Sarah Faber (1825-1882) was the daughter of Henry F. Faber and Sarah Faber (née Seabrook) of Charleston, South Carolina. Her father was a rice planter who lived near Adams Run. In 1846 the sitter was 21 years old. That year was significant for Elizabeth as she came of age and received the significant sum of $6000 from her grandfather's (Thomas Bannister Seabrook's) will, drawn up in 1827, but which came into effect on his death on 19 April 1839.
