    Notes:

    !Marshall 0001 - The date of his death is listed as 1833. The family records
    say that he was 55 at his death. That can't be correct because then he would
    Have been born the same year as his brother, Ruben. According to Creasy's
    Manuscript (page 2), John (4) is buried in "Taylor Grave Yard" just outside of Mount Airy, North Carolina. However, I have a letter from Gil Robertson, who lived in Mount Airy, that states he was buried with his wife in Salem Methodist Church Cemetery in Mt Airy. Friedburg, where he was born, is near Winston Salem, North Carolina.

    Notes:

    !Marshall 0001 - She is buried in the church yard at Salem Methodist Church. I have her birth date recorded as 1799 in one place and 1791 in another.
    Obviously one of them is wrong. I need to verify that.
