Notes: Marriage (Elizabeth Jane Overton):
From birth records, it appears that her children were born out-of-wedlock by a Moses Overton of Floyd Co., Va.; oddly, her father's name is also Moses Overton of Pittsylvania Co., Va. Other records indicate Bill Austin as the probably father of her children, but only speculation at this point. It could also be that her father adopted the children to legalize (or at least informally) their surname of Overton.
