Follow-up to my previous posting, the documents I received from DAR don't seem to be adequate to prove William B. Wallace who married Susannah McBride is the son of William Brown Wallace who died in Kentucky.They cite the will filed in Kentucky, but that only identifies a son of William Brown Wallace as a William B Wallace.I still haven't found any documentation that ties this William B to that one, and there are conflicting reports of a William Brown Wallace who moved to Missouri and then California.If anyone ever figures this out, I would love to know.William B Wallace was born in Kentucky, according to many census records of his children (saying their father was born in Kentucky), but it appears that most of William Brown Wallace's children were born in Virginia, although the border was pretty open then and William Brown Wallace was given land in Kentucky for his service in Revolutionary Army for Virginia.
