Research Notes

This source has a birth in England, but no sources for that location. Parents and siblings born in Virginia, so England is invalid unless it is a different person.[3] Sarah Bryan no sourcing other than possible Pedigree for this person and the Pedigree states he was born in England, so it is an additional discrepancy.
