The 3 generations of John Key need lots of work. Birth years are c1696, 1715, 1731. Highly unlikely! Wives of generations 2 & 3 are confused in the biographies. Also, middle names before the Rev. War were reserved for royalty. My source shows John Key (c1731-1789; son of John Key and Martha Tandy) was the spouse of Agnes Witt (pg. 9 of Witt, Robert W. 2006. Descendants of John Witt the Virginia immigrant. Bowie, MD: Heritage Books.) Hope others can help get these profiles improved.
