I have found a Sarah Oliver 1720-1770 daughter of John Bacon Oliver and her mother Sarah "Sallie" Crutchly/Critchly. This person is listed as marrying William Broad Hurst in Nov 1768 or in 1762.  Which would match with the children's births if William's first wife, Christine/Chritiana McKennie died in 1758 or 1761 instead 1785.

Christiana McKinnie 1714-1785, L6HC-2MY

If Christiana did not die until 1785 the children would all be hers.

Marriage to William Broad Hurst Sr 1736, I need to know for sure what Her date of death was; 1761 on FAG.

=============================================

Sarah Oliver and William had a Marriage Bond dated 22 Nov 1768, citation:

"North Carolina Marriages, 1759-1979", database, FamilySearch  (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:Q29D-1QSM : 14 February 2020), Sarah Oliver in entry for William Hurst, 1768

so the marriage should have been after that, but I also have that Sarah moved in with William in 1762 but they probably did not marry then as some have said.

Unless someone has a clear understanding and proof as to death dates and marriages it's still unclear who's children are whos. But he did have the two wives.
