NOTE: The above information is all that is in the estate records that
lists the heirs. It is possible more information could be obtained from
Court Records.

There is a minor problem of a nine (9) year difference in the death dates
of Benjamin Sutton which brings up the question of whether the two
Benjamins are the same person. Also the list of children is not
consistent.

I am not certain which Worry Kilpatrick this was, Warre III or the next
generation. Alexander was the son of Warre II and had a brother Warre III.
Warre III md 1st Elizabeth Bond Phillips, who died with issue and I am not
certain if Warre III remarried.
