Research Notes

• Susanna (Fleming) Bates Woodson is named in her daughter's marriage record - Hannah Bates married Robert Easly 23 Dec 1745 in Goochland, Virginia^[6]

Research Notes

• Her birthdate was adjusted to 1693 instead of 1690 because less than eight months had passed between the 1690 date and a sibling's birthdate. Both profiles should be checked further (Quaker dates may apply, as well): the narrative which cites a source for her birthdate says 1693.
