There are more than one John Mayfield families with sons names repeated including Isaac and James and Stephen and Elisha and Elijah. This generation (pre-revolution) of Mayfield's is hard to parse out. But I believe this Isaac Ellendar Mayfield was born in 1742. Currently as this profile stands, his birth listed as 1726 is out of sync with his siblings and is the same year as the assumed birthdate of his mother. This gives an error report every month in my list of suggestions. Because I am not a trusted contributor to this profile I am asking the profile managers to review it.
