↑ Source:Pope, Charles Henry. Merriam Genealogy in England and America, p. 169, only indicates one son George, but gives a birth date of 8 May 1836. No such birth record found, and if there was a son born on this date, it must have died soon (no death found), since a birth that is found is 1838 with the same name, and the age at death agrees with the 1838 birth.
