I believe Jane W Cathey to be the daughter of Griffith Rutherford Cathey and Susannah Jane Cathey. They were cousins and didn't offficially marry until 1803 in Sumner County, Tennessee. Does anyone have proof of this or proof of her lineage?

Cathey-304 and Cathey-3 appear to represent the same person because: same name and dates, same spouse

I feel certain that Jane's parents were Griffith Rutherford Cathey and Savannah Jane Cathey. These two were first cousins, but their ages and location speaks to me. Does anyone have any proof they are or are not her parents?
