Although Byram's obituary states Betsy's father was "David Lane", David was Betsy's brother and there are no documents establishing her father was ever named nor called, "David", whereas Robert Lain's probated Will (familysearch.org/patron/v2/TH-300-4329/-255-75/dist.pdf) bequeathed, "(Page 521) To Betsy Bybee, late Betsy Lain, her proportion, lot no. 2, containing 29-acres and bounded as follows, to wit:
Beginning on second corner of lot no. 1 at two beeches and sugar tree, thence north 22 west 52 poles to two beeches in the line of said Sarah F. Lain, thence south 60 west 92 poles to a stake in the (Page 522) original line, thence with the same south 22 poles to a stake corner to lot no. 1, thence with the same north 60 east 92 poles to the beginning.
The Will also includes Byrum Bybee purchasing 1 sorrel stud colt @ $70.50, 1 cow & calf @$6.25 and other items from Robert Lain's Estate, very clearly establishing Betsy's father was Robert Lain/Lane/Layne!
