>My information is that John Bushrod married first Jane Lane Corbin. His children, according to his will, were Hannah (married John Augustine Washington) and Elizabeth (married Philip Smith). He married secondly Mildred Washington. Mildred had been married once before, and some sources site her married name as Seaton. There is a source that lists Catherine Bushrod, who married William Taylor, as a child of this John Bushrod. This source does not mention Elizabeth Bushrod Smith.

During the research I've done along with my cousin Richard Bushrod, we've come across quite a few discrepencies. One of those was in regards to Catherine Bushrod. A few source list her as the daughter of John Bushrod. However, in his will he never once mentioned a Catherine as a daughter. He only mentions his current wife Mildred and Hannah and Elizabeth. Also, in Mildred's will nothing is mentioned of a Catherine (neither Hannah nor Elizabeth). I have not continue to list Catherine as a daughter of John, for my belief is that if she was, he would've mentioned her in his will somewhere.
