    Notes 
    • She and her aunt Mary Doak are frequently confused with each other. Her aunt married John Tate who lived and died in Augusta Co. She's also confused with her cousin, Mary Doak, daughter of Robert Doak. Cousin Mary married Robert Breckenridge. To make matters worse, Mary is confused with Mary Mitchell who married Col. John Tate of Augusta Co. VA who settled in Russell Co. VA. The two Johns are frequently mixed up.

      It's difficult to untangle the Mary Doaks within these two generations along with the John Tates. Between the brothers, sisters, and cousins having the same names it becomes a knotty mess to sort out.

      It's possible she was Abner Weatherly's second wife.
