Notes for JOHN J. SMALL:
LDS IGI Birth and Marriage Index, VA p. 29,400
Two birthdates are listed for John, the first lists his birth as 1835 in Accomack Co and spouse as Mrs Susan Small.
No parents are listed with this birth record, and the record is altered from source.
The second record lists his name and John J, born 1839 in Accomack and parents are listed as Solomon J. and Sally
Byrd, this source is not altered.
An additional marriage record lists Mrs. Susan Small as spouse with an approximate marriage date of 1859, a record
altered from source, and these records would indicate a single marriage for John J., not two. However, since both
records exist, one valid LDS and the other altered by family? they are recorded here.

Endnotes
There is no record of James and Nancy Boston in LDS Maryland records. There is however, a record of Solomon
J who married Sally Byrd in Worcester on 24 Dec 1827.
Virginia LDS records record the births of Solomon J and Sally Byrd children as:
Elizabeth P. 29,399
Marcellus page 29,400
Matilda on page 29,401
Sebastian on page 29,402
John J. on page 29,400
LDS VA records also record the birth of Solomon J. as 1802 in Accomack Co. VA. Solomon does not appear in VA marriage
records. He apparently met and married Sally in Maryland, therefore, no indication is given that the Small family
came from there. It does indicate though, that Solomon spent time in Maryland, married in Maryland, but raised
his children near his own family in Accomack Co., VA.
