Research Notes

• It turns out that Langley Talbot, son of David Talbot, never had children. It is unclear who the Sarah Blanks referred to in David's will is.... but it is not necessarily a wife of this Langley. The below 3 sentences were in the profile prior to Aug 24, 2021. Weatherall-96 21:02, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
  • "He married Sarah Blanks (said to be born in about 1790). See: Will of David G Talbot

Their children adopted the double T spelling. They were named John, 1823; Marion, 1827; Paulina, 1830; Louisa, 1833; Martha,1835; John Blanks, 1836; and Pamela, 1837."

• Langley Jennings Talbot is frequently conflated with Langley I Talbott from neighboring Pittsville County, who is also married to a Sarah. They are probably related, but the connection had not yet been found. Profiles for Langley I Talbott and Marion Talbot have been created to reduce conflation. (Profile for Langley I Talbot's wife Sarah Talley still should be created.) - Anne Aug20 and Deb Aug22.

• There are two Marion Talbots in Virginia in 1850/1860.
