Family Information on Edward McMullin

The names of his children by both marriages were taken from a copy of his will which was probated in June of 1788 In Botetourt County, Virginia. Neither their birthdates nor their birth order in the family have been established but Sarah was his second wife. The name of Catherine Morelock as his first wife was recieved from several other compilers, none of whom were able to offer substantiating evidence.

From "History of Wabasha County" (1884), says James McMillin's father was Edward who's father was Samuel McMillin. Samuel was the son of a Virginian Scotsman and served as a soldier in the continenal army. From this, it could be that this Edward McMullin, could really be Samuel McMillin.
