Up till about two years ago I barely knew Hezekiah's name. I don't have a copy of a will or a family Bible record, but I seriously "doubt" that Francis is the father of Michael. The known facts place Francis and Michael in different places at the same times. Hezekiah is the common connection with Mike by place and date from 1819 until sometime after 1830. Ky and Mike were charged in York in 1819 when Francis was in Pendleton "before" 1800. Why would Francis leave one younger son behind with his younger brother when the other children followed him from York to Pendleton to Habersham? I believe the known facts show that Hezekiah is the father of Michael. I would love to see anything that suggests something else and am willing to share the pros and cons of this theory. I also believe the records (other than census) show that Hezekiah was as close to Mary Dover Hambright and Bersheba Dover Martin as kin can be because the known records show that they "knew" each other by place and date. We can debate on our list too :-)
