Research Notes

Note that at least one of the older children remained with the Loyalists and fled to Canada, while some of the younger children married American Revolutionary War veterans.

On Wikitree the profiles for the children are sparse, with no dates. They should be updated based on the list above, per the research of HZ Jones Jr and colleagues.
