There is some question about the facts concerning this family. If wife Catherine was born 6 July 1778, she could not have had the children indicated on the birth dates. The large gaps in birth dates of children indicates that perhaps Hezekiah was married more than one time. Some of the research was completed by Ge Lee Corley Hendrix, Greenville, SC, about ? 1993.
