Michel: I have son Nicholas BUNN married Margaret JONES, widow of John YOCUM. But I do not have his children as indicated by his will abstract. He may have married earlier before he married Margaret since there were 7 named in his will. And if he and Margaret married in 1764, she would probably be too old to have children with him - age 40 - esp 7 more!! They are buried next to each other at St Gabriel's Cemetery in Douglasville, but his dates are not legible. They were married at St Gabriel's and the record shows he was from Philadelphia, and she was a widow.
