Kisiah’s last name at birth was also Jolley. She was most likely a cousin of her husband.

It was passed down to my aunt that Kisiah was Catawba. Have no idea if this is true or to which tribe she may have belonged or been intermixed with. There were alot of people movement in those days, obviously.
