I believe in the book, "The Decendants of Robert and John Poage the assumption that John Poage married Mary Crawford is based upon this record:
Chronicles of the Scottish-Irish Settlement in Virginia 1745 to 1800.
Original Court Records of Augusta County, Virginia.
By: Judge Lyman Chalkley, 1912.
Original Court Records of Augusta County, Virginia.
By: Judge Lyman Chalkley, 1912.
Volume 1Record Book 24Page 439
Volume 1Record Book 24Page 439Certificate of Patrick Crawford that he is willing that John Poage shall get a license to marry his sister, Mary Crawford, 30th May 1751.

You will notice the record says "shall get a license to marry", it does not say "they married".

Also there are 27 DAR records that still claim John Poage married Mary Blair which no one has been able to explain, that were filed by descendents of John Poage and Mary Blair.
