Thank you for posting the comprehensive three generations of descendants of Revel Colburn. Do you have confirmed sources on the second marriage of Revel to Margaret Current? My sources show that Revel's first wife Margaret Polk(1768-1837) was still alive and living with him in 1827. "Genealogy of the Current and Hobson Families" (1906) contains a passage by Eliza J. Current(1822-1903/Granddaughter of Revel and Margaret)in which she recalls her grandparents coming to live with them in Henry Co., IN. on her 5th birthday.

This book contains no reference to a Margaret Current being married to Revel.
This information would also affect the parentage of Margaret Elizabeth Colburn(1916-1958).
