Notes:

Information on this page is from the Murrow Genealogy Forum on the internet and isn't confirmed.

My family confirms the names Benjamin F. and Prudence (spelled "e"); Rebecca Wallingford is our ancestor.

Debate centers around the sons Mark and Richard.

Sources list TWO Mark Wallingfords, born 1778. One married Sallie Ann Applegate on 31 March 1817 in Fleming Co., KY; the other married Mary Whaley in 1803, died in 1815, wherupon Mary married his brother Joseph.

Sources list TWO Richard Wallingfords, one born 1774, the other born 1828; at first glance, OUR Richard was born 1774, married Elizabeth McMullen, then married Elizabeth Beckett, with whom he had a son John, born in 1793.

Culpeper or Culpepper? Is Culpeper City NOT in Culpeper Co.?

Was Sallie's husband Jachariah or Zachariah?
