    Notes 
    • There may be another identifiable child of this family, Nancy Pitcher, who married William Vaughn in August of 1838 in Madison County, Kentucky. The marriage bond was dated 8 August 1838 and the father of Nancy Pitcher was specifically named as Joshua Pitcher. This Joshua Pitcher also served as the bondsman along with William Vaughn. This is still speculation; I have found no other corroborating evidence. (DJS).
