No. There are sources with the fact he had two wives and the name of the mother of the last three is given. Someone is looking for a source for Sarah Jamison Sexton as the grandmother of granddaughter who married Nathainel Hart. The maiden name of this Sarah was Whitman who married 1. Edward Brush. Have sources on her profile. Have requested the PM of this profile change LNAB so can have clean merge. Sharon
