David Potts was twice married. He first married Elizabeth Lane, probably in Pennsylvania. She was, evidently, a daughter of Edward Lane, of Perkioman. (NOTE: The Lane Family. Edward Lane, son of William Lane of Bristol, England, was a landholder and resident of Perkiomen, (Now in Montgomery County). He married Ann Richardson, and died in 1710, leaving a widow, and the following children, 1. James, 2. William, 3. Samuel, 4. Elizabeth, 5. Christian, (or Christiana), 6. Ellinor, 7. Ann. Perkiomen was in the neighborhood of Gilberts Manor, and the Lanes and Jonas Potts family did not live far apart. There was no other Lane family in the neighborhood.
