Did Nehemiah Posey have two wives? The second is seen as Anna Trauntham, married 1767 in Chatham County NC, died after 1820.

From https://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/posey/2914/

We believe that the only sons of Nehemiah Posey born of Anna were Humphrey, Benjamin and John.Other possible sons of Nehemiah were Andrew, William, Dennis, Lain (or Belaine), Francis, Nathaniel (or Nathan), and Nehemiah, Jr.Before 1820, all of them left the area except John, who stayed in Telfair County.Humphrey and Benjamin stayed in Pulaski County.We have been unable to identify the mother of the other children of Nehemiah.
