Individual Details

Many of the Haden family researchers believe this Thomas Poor to be a younger brother of Susannah's mother Elizabeth, thus she married her uncle. I believe that to be a highly improbable scenario, and that Thomas was much more likely the Thomas born to Robert & Judith Walker Poor. In fact I heard from a man whose Y-DNA goes through Thomas to Robert and is a match so that makes this connection secure.

(Thomas would be 48, Susannah 42; Zachariah, John, Thomas, and William all under 10, Jesse would be 18 & Robert 19, but maybe Jesse was already married; Elizabeth would be just 10, Nancy 15, dau Lucy would be 20 if her birth year is correct so she's likely placed in the wrong column.
