Teri,

"Stuart Quisenberry Kith and Kin" by Martha Stuart Fox, p. 110 shows Thomas
Quisenberry married to Caroline Rawlings in Carolina Co.(this may be an
error, and should be Caroline Co.), VA. No citation given. An LDS
Ancestral File Pedigree Chart I have in contrast shows Thomas Quisenberry
married to Rawlings (AFN: BLVQ-C4), b. 1702, Maryland. It indicates Thomas
Quisenberry died in Caroline (probably Caroline Co.), VA in 1795. The
Caroline reference sits directly above the Rawlings name, though well
spaced, on the LDS pedigree charting and could possibly be misunderstood as
a first name belonging to Rawlings.

"SQK&K" on page 111 shows Aaron Quisenberry marrying Joyce Dudley ca. 1764.
It then chronologically lists eight children. Interestingly no birthdates
are given for these children, but for the 6th child, James Quisenberry, b.
13 June 1759. This birthdate is 5 years before Aaron and Joyce's marriage
date of ca. 1764. Death dates for two of James Quisenberry's brothers
listed previous to him were ca. 1805 and 1807. James Quisenberry died 5
August 1830. This establishes somewhat that James Quisenberry had older
brothers who were born before 1764. Thus, further supporting the contention
that Joyce Dudley was not the mother to at least six of Aaron Quisenberry's
eight children.
