Not aware of any record indicating except 3 children for Meshack's first
wife. (ukn) Children were born 1751, 1752, 1754, all in Halifax County,
Royal Colony, Virginia. Certainly there is sufficent time frame for
Priscilla as daughter of Meshack, inasmuch as he did not marry Rebekah
Robertson until 6 Feb 1760 in Halifax County, Royal Colony, Virginia.

However, Elizabeth b. abt 1754, married Elisha Pruitt bef 1794.
Elisha b. 1754, Royal Colony, Virginia... Your thoughts as to Priscilla
as grand daughter, rather than daughter???

Rachel "Rebecca" Turner married Bird Pruitt on 10 Jul 1805
............ Would this be your "Bird Pruitt"???

Do not have record of "Turner Pruitt"
............. could you extend this information???

Mine indicate Meshack died 28 Jan 1794
........ Do I have an error here???

Have 2nd wife as "Rebekah Robertson", married 6 Feb 1760 vs your
"Rebecca Robinson", married 1766....... Do I have a typo???

Appreciate any clarification you could offer for above.
