Hi:

Hortons in America and McLaurin's Horton Gen list some kids that
apparently don't belong to this family.

Skipping HIA and jumping to McLaurin:

John Horton b ca 1710 - no evidence he is a son, died before David's
will, widow Abigail likely did NOT marry a man old enough to be her
grandfather, ie Eleazer Luce, as claimed in McLaurin. The children of
John listed there not named in David Horton's 1749 will.

Mary - not in will, no other record found.

Abigail - not in will, Salmon Records death record does not show her
as dau of David.

Phebe - lived to 1789, but not in David's will - she does not belong
here. William-3 (Jonathan-2, Barnabas-1) gives one cow to daughter
Phebe in 1729 will. She is likely that Phebe. The marriage record to
Constant King, dtd 02/13/1734 in Salmon Records likely belongs to her.

Also, McLaurin says David Horton, b ca 1709, md Eliza Swezey, dau of
Richard. Elizabeth Swezey, dau of Richard is listed by several
compiled genealogies as having married Zerubabel Hallock... ???


After all this pruning (taking away four children from McLaurins list,
I have, from David's will or Salmon records of child's deaths, showing
David as father:
