Note that the family moved from Delaware to Boone County Missouri. Son John is not the father as the only son he has whose name starts with W married in 1843 to a Louisa (unless your Susan was a second wife). BTW, this is not my own family, it belongs to my client, Marilyn Roberts who is descended from John and Marium. Note Marium is also a Sapp, possibly the daughter of a Matthew Sapp of whom we know nothing further. If anyone knows about that branch, we would love to know more.
