John Fannin,Sr. had a Will and names his wife as Keziah with children: John Jr.( 1st wife: Margaret Ferguson 2nd wife: Cynthia Skeen Reynolds), Bryan (wife Mary "Polly" Smith), Isaac (wife Sophia "Sarah" Ross), Stephen (wife Janetta Hartley), Philip (Rebecca Clay), Mary Pitts (wife of Thomas N. Pitts), Amy Stewart(wife of Absalom Stewart) & Sarah Howe (wife of George W.Howe). I do not know where the other children's names came from - just guesses, I suppose, since they lived in close proximity to John & Keziah. I have found no documentation beyond this Will to prove otherwise, but would love to see some evidence that David (wife Julia Jordan), Joseph (wife Elizabeth Kitchen)& Rachael (husband Andrew Jackson Burton) were John & Keziah's children. Most likely they are closely related, but there is no proof they are their children. Good luck in your search. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
