Mary Elizabeth Anderson^{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}

Facts and Notes

• Name:³
• Anecdote: John Morton; Note that the order of children stated in Legrand's affidavit differs from the order listed in Henry Morton Woodson's "Historical Genealogy of the Woodsons and Their Connections." Although I believe Legrand might have more credibility because he was allegedly providing first-hand knowledge, Henry Woodson's dates have more specificity. As a result, I decided to use Henry Woodson's dates when they were available and "shoehorned" the remaining children as much as possible between those dates based on the birth order stated by Legrand.⁹
• Birth: 9 November 1736; Farmville, Prince Edward County, Virginia, USABGO^1,4,5
• Birth: 19 November 1736; Prince Edward County, Virginia, USABGO; She was the daughter of an English merchant at Farmville in Prince Edward county.^2,7,3
• Marriage: 15 September 1750; John Morton; Farmville, Prince Edward County, Virginia, USABGO; Mary Elizabeth Anderson was 14 years old when she married^10,1,2,7
• Death: 1796; Prince Edward County, Virginia, USABGO; Age: 60⁷
• Residence: 1810; Prince Edward County, Virginia, USABGO⁶
