To make things more interesting, according to ref: Alderman, John P. "Burks Fork." In Carroll 1765-1815, the Settlements: A History of the First Fifty Years of Carroll County, Virginia, P. 59-60. Roanoke, Virginia: Central Va. Newspapers, 1985. /ref Zachariah Stanley married John's daughter [[Mendenhall-1138|Susannah]] in 1765. Susannah was born in 1749, obviously to his first wife Elizabeth. (This is corroborated by ref: Anderson, Alvin L., and Ruth Stanley Kuntz. "Thomas Stanley, Generation 3." In Stanley and Allied Families: Descendants of the Quaker Stanley Families of Colonial Virginia, P. 213. Vol. 1. Baltimore, MD: Published for the National Stanley Family Association by Gateway Press, 1996. \ref) Their first child being [[Stanley-4452|Elizabeth]].
Then in [[Mendenhall-109|John's]] profile it lists [[Mendenhall-739|Mordecei]] as a son of John and Mary born in 1762. According to naming patterns that should be [[Mendenhall-277|John's]] firstborn son...?
