Looking in the publication, Miami Valley Quakers, I did not find John or Annie, However, I found children with birth dates that correspond as follows: Rebecca who married Moses Embree 17 Jul 1821 (no children listed). Sarah (Sally) who married John Eller 14 Feb 1811 Children: 1. Joseph b. 1812 m. Sarah Friend 2, Willam m 1843 Elizabeth Friend. Susan (b. 1802) who married Daniel Hoover in 1822 (no children) Byrkett/Burkett, Hoover, Friend and Embree are all Quaker families who migrated to Miami Co from North & South Carolina and Georgia in their rejection of slavery.
