Per Howard Jones fide Don Bradley

William Edmiston, b. 1781. was a son of Col. William Edmiston. His first wife is unknown; his second was Elizabeth Ann Boteler.

Betsy Stuart was the wife of William's brother, General William Campbell Edmiston -- which is his name, not a title.Campbell, as he was called, was born in 1785. Needless to say, there has been much confusion between these two, especially because people did not realize that General was a name, not a title -- he was named after Col. William's commander at King's Mountain.G.W.C. had two other wives, but without issue. Q 07:39, 17 June 2009 (EDT)

1. ↑ DOM of 1761 may be correct, but by this time the family was on Borden's Grant in modern Rockbridge County, so POM would seem to be incorrect
