From Poole researcher: "Mary Poole married Andrew Corsa, a recognized Revolutionary War participant. See notes under Andrew Corsa.

At the time of this writing (June 2005) there is still confusion as to 'which sequence' of wife Mary Poole was to Andrew. She is noted to have 10 issue by Andrew.

Research by William DeCoursey (http://www.angelfire.com/mn/itsabouttime) states his first wife's (Helena Bussing) death was Dec. 27, 1787. and Andrew's marriage to Mary Poole as being Oct. 12, 1792. Their first child being born in 1793 and onward. Other published data also by Mr. DeCoursey states 'Mary Poole' as being Andrew Corsa's first wife. If, in fact, Helena Bussing is proven to have died in 1787, and record of two children for her and Andrew are proven, then Mary Poole would logically be wife number two based on the ages of their children, etc.

Other recognized sources (Westchester Historical Society) have stated Mary was Andrew's first wife and Helena Bussing his second wife. Research underway to try to clear up the discrepencies."
