Who was Selah's Mom?
I got most of my basic information about my family tree from online sources, especially Ancestry.com. What I'm leading up to is, while it seems that Selah Falconbury's mother had a first name of Charity (unknown last name), it may be different from the Charity usually thought of. Jacob Falconbury's first wife was Charity, born about 1760 in North Carolina (Anson-Richmond County). But there is a gap of at least ten years between his first two children (William & Keziah) and the rest of his kids. Also, the geographical locations are different (NC vs. SC). Since my mtDNA haplotype is involved, I'm more interested in this than might otherwise be called for. It's possible, then, that Jacob had two different wives at two different times, both named Charity. He also had a third wife much later with no offspring. Selah married James Wheeldon in Kentucky later. Has anyone out there given this any thought?
