According to my research, John James Dunn's parents could have been Thomas Dunn and Elizabeth Gray. https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/G8KK-168/thomas-dunn-1700-1772
Currently https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LRSB-X4J shows that according to https://dunnfamilyofvirginia.blogspot.com/2023/03/john-ross-dunn-es..., the John Dunn who was the son of Thomas & Elizabeth Gray was John Ross Dunn Esq. (1697-1783). Isn't that what Geni should be showing?
According to DAR records, John Dunn, of Albemarle County was born in Northumberland County. He does not seem to be part of the Essex County families?
At this point, I'm detaching him from parents.
Anyone who has sources, please advise.
