NOTE

These two families were close Neighbors. Anthony Seale was on a list of accounts owed Mason's father, Hugh French. I stop short of saying Mason's first wife may have been a sister of David's because once speculated it morphs into fact. This happened several years ago when I speculated that one Daniel French may have married a Strother. This has crept into the genealogy in spite of the fact it was only speculation. At this time the first wife of Mason in not known but I have no specifice piece evidence she was a Seale. ^[4]
