Family:Hezekiah Magee and Dicey Magee (1)

Since Leon V. Bankston was a grandson of Hezekiah and Dicey Magee, it is worth presenting the list of their children as presented in the booklet edited by him (Leon), "A Short History of William Magee I and His Wife Mary James" (1954): 1. Pleasant Magee married Harriet Bickham 2. Nehemiah Magee married Celia Roberts 3. Margany Magee married George R. Bickham 4. David Magee married Elizabeth Ann Peake 5. Bethany Magee married George Dyson 6. Elbert Magee married Louisa Burkhalter 7. Louisa Magee married Young Peter Bankston 8. Hezekiah Magee II married [no wife given] 9. Jefferson Magee died young 10. Tabitha Magee married Lalie [Leslie] Bankston 11. Thomas M. Magee married Martha Prichard 12. Warren Magee unmarried 13. Sarah Frances Magee married Jesse Waller [It is worth pointing out, however, that "Harriet Bickham," above, was the wife of Hezekiah Magee, not Pleasant]

   The Nehemiah Magee Bible (Nehemiah, son of Hezekiah) gives a nearly identical list of the children of Hezekiah Magee in the Hezekiah Magee Bible. However, the Nehemiah Magee Bible adds Bethany Magee as a daughter of Hezekiah. Also, several of the exact dates of birth diverge.
