'''Name:''' Joanna Owens. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/70561861; There is no tombstone, her burial location is unknown, no source was given for the information in the memorial, and no corroborating evidence can be found. '''Therefore, we must assume the information is merely hearsay and the informant's degree of authentic knowledge is undetermined.'''

Ancestry.com tells us that this compilation was taken from family trees and family group sheets that had been REJECTED for DNA genealogy research. The quality and reliability of the data is known to be flawed.
Note: Descendants of some of Joanna's siblings retained the original Owen spelling of the surname while others adopted the Owens spelling. Joanna's father used the Owens spelling every time he referred to himself or his children in his will. People of Welsh descent frequently added an 's' to the end of a surname to indicate that it was no longer a patronymic.
'''Parents:''' [[Owen-1906|William Owens]] & [[Lansford-40|Lydia Lunsford]]Statistical analysis of autosomal DNA match results (>14 matches) for Barbara Harrington, Billy Ray Owens, Carol Paladin, Carol Staffieri, Cora May Thomas, Delores Domingo Roberts, Dennis Pierce, Ronald Owens, and Virgil Owens, all proven descendants of William & Lydia Owens. Greater than 89.7% confidence that Joanna is their daughter. Email askVirgil@aol.com for methodology and result details
'''Birth:''' on January 3, 1713 (unproven date) in Henrico County, VirginiaNo original document can be found to confirm Joanna's date of birth and the sources cited above are unreliable--at best--and it appears that one copied from the other (see comments in Sources below). There is some dispute over Joanna's place of birth - some duplicate profiles stated she was born in Pittsylvania, Virginia but Pittsylvania County did not exist when she was born and--in any event-- it was on the opposite side of the James River from where her parents lived in Henrico County. Other unsourced family trees mistakenly claim she was born in Prince George County but there is good documentary evidence that her parents lived in Henrico County and no evidence that they ever lived in Prince George County.
'''Marriage:''' to [[Kerby-43|John Kerby]], 1729 (unproven date) in Goochland County, VA
'''Documented children include''' #Francis Kirby was born about 1738 in Goochland County, Virginia and died after 1798 in Greenville County, South Carolina. #John Kirby, Jr. was born on 18 Apr 1741 in Halifax County, Virginia and died about 1805 in Union County, South Carolina #David Kirby was born on 14 Jul 1738 in Franklin County, Virginia and died on 6 Apr 1811 in Warren County, Kentucky #Henry Kirby was born about 1745 in Halifax County, Virginia and died about 1830 in Tennessee
#Josiah Kirby was born about 1747 in Franklin County, Virginia. #Mary Kirby was born about 1749 in Franklin County, Virginia. Mary married Joseph Hubbard. #Jesse Kirby was born about 1750 in Franklin County, Virginia and died in Aug 1786 about age #Susannah Kirby was born about 1753 in Prince George County, Virginia.

Some sources state that Joanna and John had ten children at least.
