Notes for SALLY FAUBION:
Record pages, from Bible of John and Leah (McKay) Faubion, on file in Stokel Memorial Library, Newport, Tennessee.
Virginia Marriage Record book !, page 246 ( Fauquier County, Virginia). Original in Virginia State Library, Richmond, Virginia 23219.
William Armstrong Crozier, Early Virginia Marriages, page 22, shows them married on October 7, 1788. This may have been a mistake in reading or typing or it may have been the actual date of marriage, the Bond being secured on an earlier date - October 1, 1788. The Virginia State Library does not find record of such a date in their Archives.
J. Estelle Stewart King, Abstracts of Wills, Administrations, and Marriages of Fauquier County, Virginia, 1759 - 1800 (1939), page 81, shows William Broadhurst and Franky Harrill married on August 14, 1787. William was probably a brother of Joseph, but the children we have listed are believed to have belonged to Joseph and Sally.

Additional Biographical Information
SALLY [2] FAUBION, or SARAH, as she is called by descendants of her brother Moses, is believed to have been born in Fauquier County, Virginia around 1770-1772; died in East Tennessee (probably Cocke County) on 14 March 1808.
a: She married in Fauquier County, Virginia, JOSEPH BROADHURST, Marriage Bond dated 1 October 1788.
b: We do not know the names of Joseph's parents, and the dates and places of his birth and death are unknown.[16]
Little else can be proved about this family except that Sally died on 14 March 1808. Based on ages and apparent relationships, a list of children has been compiled the list may or may not be complete. What happened to Joseph (the husband and father) is unknown; but it is interesting to note that the two oldest boys believed to be their sons (John and Joseph) did not name any of their children after him, while both of them named their first girl Sarah and Sally.[17]
