Notes
Betty Dotson Renick info states they died in Wirt Co, but obviously this means in the part of the county that later became Wirt.
Hardesty's History of Wirt Co WV 1882
The first settlers
Then came Benjamin Roberts, Thomas Prebble and Jonathan Shepherd from the south branch of the Potomac, the latter bringing with him his three sons, William, Samuel and Henry.
sketch about Rebecca's son David:
His mother, whose maiden name was Rebecca Sheppard, was born in 1798 and is living with Brooks Somerville. She is the only surviving child of Jonathan Sheppard, who was the first settler in Reedy District.
