• "The Parish Register of Christ Church, Middlesex County, Va.," page 39 shows Robert Price died 11 Jan 1689 or 1690.

• "The Parish Register of Christ Church, Middlesex County, Va.," page 13 shows children of Robert and Jane. Children born between 1670 and 1684. Robert's wife clearly shown as Jane.

• "The Parish Register of Christ Church, Middlesex County, Va.," page 37 shows Margaret Price widow of Robert Price re-married on 27 Jan 1689. Robert Price would have died previous to that, even though the parish register reports his death as 11 Jan 1689 or 1690. It is thought that Robert's first first, Jane, died and he re-married to the woman named Margaret. Then, after Robert died, Margaret re-married a Mr. Paul Thilman.
