Nothing about the traditional claim [that Thomas Huckaby married Charles Nuckoll's daughter] ever seemed to quite fit including the projected birth date for Charles Nuckolls' daughter Keziah [1761] which was a little too late to for her to be Thomas Huckaby 's wife and the mother of his first child [in 1773-1774] . However, the proof that Charles Nuckoll's daughter, Keziah, was not Thomas Huckaby's wife is on Dennis Yancey's site for Richard Yancey probate records which clearly lists the heirs of Charles and Keziah (Yancey) Nuckolls and shows that their daughter, Keziah, was a spinster and still unmarried in 1810 when a major suit involving the estate took place.

I think it very likely that Thomas Huckaby married Kezekiah/Keziah Self [b.c.1749], daughter of William Self of Cumberland Co., Va. Thomas Huckaby was living there about the time of the marriage, Kezekiah/Keziah Self was the correct age, and William Self's will proved in 1791 shows that his daughter was married to a Huckaby. I know of no other Huckaby in Cumberland County at the correct time to marry William Self's daughter, nor do I know of any other Huckaby of that general era with a wife named Keziah/Kezeiah. William Self had ties to both Cumberland and Bedford counties, both associated with the Huckabys. Also, William Self sold his Campbell Co land (formerly in Bedford) to Joseph Chaffin, a near kinsman of Thomas Huckabys.

COURT RECORDS OF 1810 IN MECKLENBURG CO., VA INDICATE THAT KEZIAH WAS APPARENTLY SINGLE & STILL USING THE NUCKOLLS NAME. WHETHER SHE EVER MARRIED IS UNCERTAIN. MISC REC: 1810 - MECKLENBURG CO., VA - Estate Settlement of Richard Nuckolls
