Can someone tell me if the John Greenwell who married Catherine Wimsatt who
was previously married to Bernard Drury, as to when he was born and who he
belongs to.


Here is what I have:


2 Catherine Wimsatt b: 1775 in St. Marys Co., Md.
d: May 22, 1838 in Washington County,
............ +Bernard Drury m: November 07, 1796 b: Bef.
June 16, 1771 in St. Marys Co., Md. d: July 26, 1819 in Washington County,
Kentucky
........ *2nd Husband of Catherine Wimsatt:
............ +John Greenwell m: September 05, 1823 b:
October 02, 1760 in St. Andrews d: Aft. 1834 in Rolls Co. Mo.

Register Of St. Andrew's (Anglican) Church Of St. Mary's County

John, son of Charles Greenwell and Eleanor his wife, born 2 October 1760.
Jane, daughter of Charles Greenwell and Eleanor his wife, born 20 March
1763.
Richard, son of Charles Greenwell and Eleanor his wife, born 7 October 1765.
Edward, son of Charles Greenwell and Eleanor his wife, born 30 January 1768.



Here is the problem, Some have Arnold John Greenwell as born 2 October 1760
who married Mary Thompson others have the John Greenwell who married
Catherine Wimsatt as born 2 October 1760.

I have Catherine Wimsatt as Dying on 22 May 1838 Washington County, KY.


Which is most correct? Do we even know parents of Arnold John Greenwell? I
currently have his birth date as 6 May 1749 St. Mary's, St. Mary's,
Maryland. But I'm not sure I have correct information.


Also can someone tell me when Arnold John Greenwell who married Mary
Thompson was born.


Some discussion recently on which of these belongs under Charles Greenwell
and Eleanor Abell.
