On page 372 of the book it says that John Huffman was the 5th son of Tillman Huffman and that John Huffman married Elizabeth Huffman who was the daughter of his Uncle John.? Then it says that John's children were mentioned in his will and they were 1 Edmund 2 Thornton 3 Alfred 4 Burrell 5 Uriah 6 Felix 7 Alexander and 8 Jefferson.?? "The will of John Huffman leaves his property to his wife Elizabeth and his sons, Felix, Edmund, Thornton, and Alfred; mentions "all my children," and appoints the son Felix, executor.? Of the children mentioned in the will, Alfred N Huffman m. Jane F Stringfellow No. 18, 1845 in Fulpeper Co. and Felix Huffman m. Juliet Ann Green Jan 31, 1838." I thought that Alfred Huffman of the Little Fork group was the one who married Jane Stringfellow.
