Jonathan Cunningham and his wife were present during the 2nd Kerr's Creek Massacre, and although one report claims that they both were killed, Jonathan's will written in 1769, naming his wife Mary, proves that they both survived the massacre. An article detailing the Kerr's Creek Massacres is located here:
