Malcolm's known siblings: William, John, Sarah, Alexander, Hugh, Rachel and Mary.
This is 8 of 13 children as stated in Malcolm's obit.

Malcolm, William and Rachel stated on censuses that they were born in North Carolina.
Have other info that they were in Bedford County, Virginia around the Rev War.
 Moved to Kentucky (Mercer, and Christian Counties).

Daniel’s wife was written as Indian Maid in my Grandmother’s Bible (ggranddaughter).
Her name was Agnes ? (many researcher and some documents); Mary Skiles (no proof).
Has been reported by old relative that Daniel had three wives and one was named Agnes.

 We are trying to find descendants of all these people.
