That pretty much matches everything I have on those two Humphreys. There is a third Humprey born 17 Mar 1782 died 22 Sep 1832 married Mary Campbell born 11 Feb 1795 died 17 Jul 1832. They married 23 Mar 1809 and had seven children. His parents are not known, but with that name I figure he enters into this mess somewhere.

Thanks for the reply Cy. There seems to be a discrepancy on the deposition made in 1735. I believe whoever sent it to me must have transcribed the dates in error.
