• Notes

  Jemima evidently married George Stacy c.1759 (per a Frederick County Order that names his wife as Jemima) and upon his death (1767), married their close neighbor (per the 1759 tithables list of Fauquier County) Charles Littlejohn. With Littlejohn she removed to Ninety-Six District, South Carolina (1777) and had sons Henry, Ignatius (after her father) and Nancy Littlejohn. Her death was recorded in the parish register of Goucher Baptist Church of Spartanburg Dist., SC on Aug. 7, 1816. Through her son with George Stacy, she is the mother of the Stacy family of Gaffney, South Carolina.
