↑ The parents of Bunyan have not been conclusively identified. A Mose Smith administrated the estate of Jesse Gale, and one may suspect he is a brother of Jesse's wife Mary (Smith) Gale. He also administered the estate of Bunyan, so one would suspect Bunyan might be from the same family. See the discussion on the assumed parent's page about the difficulty identifying them and of determining how many wives Abner had.
