To them was born one daughter (as far as this scribe can ascertain), Martha, who married Elizah Lake. He was killed in the battle of Crater in the Confederate War. To this union, four children were born, Viz.: Nora, Brumfield, Miles and Robert. Nora Married Mr. Z. Abrams, a veteran of the Confederate War. They lived in Newberry county and left one child, Miles, who married a Mr. Perry. Nothing more is know of the Lake children."[1]
