Research Note

Susannah Whitehead and Susannah Whitehead appear to be the same person but clearly are not. One person cannot possibly have been married to both Jacob Whitehead, Jr. and to Benjamin Stovall and had this number of children from each marriage. They have been set with an unmerged match and should stay that way until this has been thoroughly sorted. It appears that there are two ladies named Susannah - each one married to one of the husbands and mother of the respective children. Please do not remove the unmerged match until much more research has been done on these families. I will personally work on this issue. Butter-100 22:20, 16 April 2022 (UTC) 22 August 2022 - Benjamin Stovall has been removed as spouse of this Susannah Whitehead. That relationship is impossible because of the reasons stated above in this Research note. The two Susannah's are being set as Rejected Matches. They both need more research and sources added but they cannot be the same person.
