It has been reported that he married second to a Ruth and had one child, Elizabeth. [citation needed]
In reviewing Nicholas and Ruth, it appears that this second Nicholas was the son of this Nicholas on this profile:
Elizabeth Haile [10] It appears this son, Nicholas, if he married Ruth (unknown) and had a child in Saint Thomas Parish, there would be a record of his transfer from St Paul Parish. Pews were rented, so there would also be a record of payment stopped in one parish and begun in the other.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Nicholas by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
Year of death is probably wrong in the Vital Data section, but there is evidence (if not proof or primary source) indicating a Nicholas Jr and wife Ann Long were in Virginia in the 1740s.
Since its publication in 1948, perhaps this secondary source material has been effectively disputed or superceded by more recent research.
Roots in Virginia; an account of Captain Thomas Hale, Virginia frontiersman, his descendants and related families. With genealogies and sketches of Hale, Saunders, Lucke, Claiborne, Lacy, Tobin and contributing ancestral lines, by Nathaniel Claiborne Hale, born 1903, published 1948
Also, page 7 of the Edythe Whitley reference under ‘See Also’ in the narrative … under the heading ‘Lunenberg County Virginia Records’. Later in the document, several mentions of Nicholas and wife Ruth in Bedford and Roan/Rowan counties.
Somethiing's wrong with Ann Long. There's no way that she was 17 years older than her husband and having children at age 58...
Also, all of the land references that have been added are for the profile of the son Nicholas, who married Ruth: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Haile-71. Please move them to the proper profile.
Also, to whom do the references for Francis Hale's will in 1775 belong? They aren't for this Nicholas' mother, Frances, who died circa 1730. What significance do they have to this profile?
To 5 profile managers: "921 PPP Without Project Account and without ProjectBox." Please open this profile so it can be edited, per comment 2019 Mar 19. Unable to find anything on the profile which tells of which Project this profile belongs. Please correct that first. Then correct the death date.
