Since the children of Lewis and Sterling Cato are known then Frances Emaline Cato (wife of William Mullins MUL(7)1#7 1st) could have been the daughter of James, Henry or William Cato.

Joe Reynolds married Nancy Turnipseed (MUL(7)3#1 1st) but I do not know who her parents were. The problem is that there were two Abraham Turnipseed families who are likely candidates. I have listed them as MUL(8)7A and MUL(8)7B. It may turn out that there was only one Abraham Turnipseed but that he had two wives and many children.
