*****
A WILLIAM PEATT and MARY SMITH (d/o Martin Smith) were married 17 Nov 1814 in
Augusta Co VA by William King. The 1820 census for Augusta Co VA, page 14A,
shows William, aged 45+, and female, 16-26, with 2 males 0-10 and 1 female
1-10. Could the age difference between the adults indicate that this was a
second marriage for William?
A speculative list of children born to WILLIAM and MARY SMITH PEATT is:
1. James, b c1816
2. daughter?
3. Elijah H, b 1819/1822
4. Marshall, b 1820
5. daughter?
6. William, b 1827
7. Andrew Jackson, b 1829, Pocahontas Co WV
8. Dianah [sic], b 1832, Nicholas Co WV
9. George, b 1835, Nicholas Co WV
10. Alexander, b 1840, Nicholas Co WV
11. John S, b 16 Jun 1842 [sic], Nicholas Co WV
