Notes - !NOTES:Is there any proof at all that Elender is a child of Andrew and thus a sibling to Andrew (Jr), Robert, etc.? I tend to think she isn't Andrew's child, but probably related. I could be wrong;
!NOTES:It is highly likely that Martha and Elener are sisters because they got marriage bonds the same day, and their soon-to-be husbands were bondsman for each other;
!NOTES:The reason I include Elender as a potential sister to Jacob Baker is that she lived next to him in Ashe Co., NC. That could be a coincidence, but they were definitely associated;
!NOTES:I have no primary sources for the full birth and death dates. They came from other researchers, as did the full list of children;
