    Notes 
    • Probably Elizabeth and Micajah were married in South Carolina, in the Spartanburg area, as Micajah and some of the McClurkin's had land dealings in the 1790's in that area. However, Rutherford County NC is a possibility, since they had land dealings there, also.

      Jane McClurkin's will in Jeferson Co. AL references her daughter Elizabeth Lindsey, wife of Micajah
