Notes for THOMAS CASH: It is felt that Thomas Cash was married once to a person named Jemima, but the only record found of her is when Tabitha married, she was listed as her mother. There is no record I know of which links Thomas with Jemima. but Don L, Cash of San Diego said there was a family record and he researched the family for 40 years or so. He told me in 1984 that there was a family record of them together. However, due to his ill health at the time, I could not press him about it. He listed Tabitha as a daughter of Jemima and Thomas on family sheets he sent me. We know that Thomas Cash definitely married Jane Camron, daughter of Duncan Cameron, of Amherst. Co. Va., prior to 15 Sept. 1806, in Amherst Co. See Deed Bk K:468, and he had some children with her. However, we don't have definite birthdates for many of his children, so this family needs much more research. Don Cash mentioned that there was a divorce between Thomas and Jemima? Has anyone found this? Proven Children of Thomas Cash: Mary (Polly) Cash m. Moses Wright, Jr., son of Elizabeth Whitehead and Moses Wright, on 20 January 1807, Amherst Co. VA. Mary was the daughter of Thomas Cash as given on the marriage record. James Cash m Seley Campbell, daughter of Edward Campbell, on 17 February 1811, Rockbridge Co. Va. Marriage record gives her father's name and James' father as Thomas Cash. Nancy Cash m. Morris Wright, son of Elizabeth Whitehead and Moses Wright. In 1850 Rockbridge Co. census Thomas Cash was living with them. She was age 55, Morris was 63, Thomas was 86, and the son of Morris and Nancy, George W. Wright, was age 33. William Cash m Jenny Hite, daughter of Samuel, on 10 February 1818, Rockbridge Co. Va. William was given as the son of Thomas Cash on marriage record. John Cash m Sarah Fauber on 15 March 1824, Augusta Co. Va. John was given as the son of Thomas Cash on the marriage record. Ready Cash m Mary Hartigan, daughter of Timothy, on 27 August 1823, Augusta Co. Va. Ready was given as the son of Thomas Cash on the marriage record.

The other children given on this family group sheet are not proven children of Thomas Cash and are given only for research purposes. Nor is the name of the mother of these children definitely known, except for Reuben Cash who was the son of Jemima Cash, her identity remains in question. She was Reuben's guardian along with William and James Cash when Reuben married Bethena Wright in 1816 in Amherst Co. Va. On the marriage bond secured by his mother, Jemima Cash, and by William Cash and James Cash, sons of Stephen Cash (d. 1799), Reuben was said to have no legitimate father, so the only thing we know for sure is that Jemima Cash on that record was his mother. Nothing has been found yet to link Thomas Cash to this Jemima Cash. Who was she? The only reason I am listing Reuben in the Thomas Cash family is because most descendants seem to believe he was son of Thomas, but we don't have a record to prove that. When Tabitha Cash married Lewis Martin, her mother, Jemima Cash signed marriage record; no father was mentioned. Leroy P. Cash, born about 1808, appears on 1850 Rockbridge Co. Va. census as age 42. He was a witness to the marriage of Ellis Wright to Jane Cash, daughter of Seley and James Cash, on 19 December 1836, Rockbridge Co. Va.. Jesse Cash was listed as the son of Jemima in the 1830 Amherst Co. Va. census, but I am not sure which Jesse that was. A Jesse Cash died in Amherst Co. in 1857, age 81, from the death certificate. An estate of Jesse Cash was administered by Cary J. Cash (son of Bethena and Reuben) about 15 September 1856, Amherst Co. Va.
