Family Patience Franklin, b. 1793/1794, Surry Co, NC d. 1860/1870, Wilkes Co, NC (Age 76 years) Marriage 1810/1816 Surry Co, NC Notes - !MARRIAGE:
Due to the 9 year gap in children between Richard (c1818) and Deborah (c1827) it is suspected that perhaps there was a wife prior to Patience Franklin. However, that may not be the case. Perhaps no children were born in that period, or some were but died young;

!NOTES:Special thanks to Jim Cockerham (deceased), Bob Corbett, Bobbie Pierce, Eloise Wall and others for data shared on this family.
!NOTES:Daniel S. Wright isn't a proven child of Aaron and Mary, but he was a neighbor and was associated, so seems very likely to be their child. Named his oldest son "Richard Murphy Wright" after Mary's father Richard Murphy, so that more or less proves Daniel is Aaron and Mary's son;
