Charles WALL and Wilmuth DEUBERRY. Sur. WALLace WILSON. Wilmuth signs her own consent.
Note: if the wedding to Wilmuth is correct - he married a month after Braxton was born. Either a date is wrong, or Elizabeth died in childbirth and he needed someone to care for a newborn. Likely a date is wrong.
