Douglass wrote: Dear List, My cousin and I are working on some of our lines. He found below information and it does seem to change what we've had concerning who the parents were for Duannah Shumate who married Moses Johnston. Does anyone know who the parents were of Duannah Shumate who married Moses Johnston. I have both wills for Duannah (Shumate) Johnston wife of Moses Johnson and will of Moses Johnston if anyone would like that information. Thanks, Amanda Moses Johnson m. Duannah (Diannah) Shumate. b. abt. 1749; d. aft. 5/16/1829, dau. of Daniel Shumate & Sarah JAMES. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amanda - I've had Daniel's wife as Sarah Ann James on my tree for years and I've seen dozens of family trees that make the same connection. I thought they were parents of Duanna Shumate who married Moses Johnson and begat Mary Johnson who married Tim Bray. However, according to the following I found, on the Shumate list, Sarah James was 2nd wife and there were no children by her. The poster of this message seems confident this is factual. "He [another Daniel] is the son of Daniel Shumate and Mary "Unknown" - NOT Sarah Ann James. Daniel didn't marry Sarah Ann James until after Mary died - and after all his children were born. Sarah Ann James was previously married to Peter Cornwell. Daniel had NO children with Sarah Ann James Cornwell. Here are the various collected notes on this: Daniel Shumate entered the Fauquier Co., VA militia in August, 1777, as an Ensign, during the American Revolution. On March 24, 1778, he was recommended as a second Lieutenant. He resigned his commission in May, 1781. Historical Register of Virginians in the Revolution, by John H. Gwathmey Molly Shumate writes, "These children that are listed are by Daniel's first wife who is unknown. His second marriage to Sarah Ann Cornwell (widow) did not result in any children."
