Notes:

The following seems to be the source of the controversy of Saby Wyatt and Sabory McGuire:
Zachariah BUNCH - b. about 1751, prob. Louisa Co., VA; d. Apr.-Aug. 1794, Clark Co., KY. Son of Henry BUNCH and Ann.

Zachariah sold land in Bedford Co., VA by deed dated Sep. 1, 1772, making it likely that his first child was born in that county. He appears on the 1784 tax list of Botetourt Co., VA, and on the 1789 tax list of Mercer Co., KY. His will, dated Apr. 3, 1794, Clark Co., KY, and proved by witnesses John SUMMERS, Sr., and Peter DEWITT, Jr. and Sr. on Aug. 26, 1794, and by Saby BUNCH on Aug. 28, 1794. The will names wife Saby, six children, and grandson James CUBBAGE. Son in law John HOLLOWAY was security for the executrix. An inventory of the BUNCH estate was taken Nov. 24, 1794 and recorded Dec. 23, 1794, clearly indicates Zachariah was a livestock farmer, including seven horses, 24 head of cattle, 14 hogs and 7 sheep. Married about 1771.

Sabory - Wife of Zachariah in 1793, and possibly the mother of his children. The following entry appears in a volume of Mercer Co., KY Court Records: 'Indenture from Zachariah Bunch and Sabory Bunch, his wife, to Lawrence McGuire, was acknowledged and dower relinquished and ordered recorded.' This record provides Saby's full given name, and suggests a lead that may uncover her ancestry. Research continues.

John Bunch III married Rebecca Harrison between 1713 / 1714 in New KentCo., VA. She was born between 1690 - 1694 in Louisa Co., VA and diedMarch 16 1770 in Louisa Co., VA.

He was a property owner and patented 400 acres of land in FredricksvilleParish, Louisa County. They had at least eight children

This family is very well documented. A team of accredited genealogists researched this family when Barack Obama became president. This is Obama's ancestor.
John Bunch III was the son of John Bunch II. He was a mulatto. Y-DNA studies on his male descendants show that he was of African ancestry (Cameroon or Ivory Coast.) DO NOT COMBINE HIM TO THE FAMILY OF JOHN BUNCH AND MARY TEMPERANCE BATES THEY ARE NOT THE SAME! John Bunch III and Sarah Slayden petitioned the courts for permission to marry in 1705 as they were a mixed race couple. John Bunch III later married Rebecca. They were the parents of Nancy, John, Lucretia, William, Henry, David, James, Samuel and Rebecca.

John married Rebecca HARRISON between 1713 and 1714 in New Kent, New Kent County, Virginia. Rebecca (daughter of Anthony HARRISON and Rebecca BERNARD) was born in 1699 in Louisa County, Virginia; died on 16 Mar 1770 in Louisa County, Virginia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

• LifeSketch: ; Joseph Callaway,

Notes:

Joseph Callaway,

Son of Joseph Callaway. Possibly the husband of Anne Browning- The last deed, below, caused some to surmise Joseph was married to the daughter of Francis Browning and that Joseph named his son, Francis, after Anne's father.

Joseph Callaway Sr.'s name appears in Virginia Patent Books. John Medor was granted 640 acres of land in Rappahannock County, south side of Rappahannock River on Beaverdam Swamp for transporting four persons: Jno Chambers, Joseph Callaway, Robert Duell and John Warrener.On April 21, 1690, Joseph Callaway and Robert Duell appear on another importation list where Dugwell Ferson was granted 63 acres in Middlesex County, VA by the west branch of Parretts Creek.The explanations for appearing on two different importation lists include returning to England or some other Colony or possibly some sort of fraud.On April 10, 1700, Joseph Callaway bought 77 acres in Essex County from John McDuffy (Essex Deed Book 10, p30)Joseph appears on the Essex County Quit Rent Rolls of 1704.On July 11/12, 1711, Joseph Callaway of South Farnham Parish bought 100 acres for the sum 2,500 lbs. of tobacco, on the south side of the headwaters of Portabago Swamp in Essex County (Deed Book 13, p 424). This land was purchased from Francis Browning and his wife Rachel; it was part of a patent formerly granted to Enoch Doughty.In April 1712, a deed makes reference to Joseph Callaway's land when William Berry and his wife Margaret of Richmond County sold to Samuel Short of Essex County, 310 acres in Essex, being a part of a patent granted to Enoch Doughty for 4763 acres, and bounded by the land of Joseph Callay and that of Francis Browning, and on a head branch of Matapony (Essex County Wills and Deeds, 1711-1714, p33).On July 10, 1715, Francis Browning of St. Mary's Parish gives "for natural love and affection which I have for my well beloved daughter Anne Browning", 100 acres "where I now live", which land was purchased out of a tract formerly granted to Enoch Doughty, adjoining 100 acres sold to Joseph Callaway and land recently taken up by Jn. Sanders (Essex County Wills and Deeds, 1714-1717, p366).In 1732, Thomas Callaway appears in the Tax records of Caroline County.In 1765, Thomas Callaway and his wife Mary of Halifax County sold to Walter Dunn, a tract of land in Essex County "whereupon Joseph Callaway formerly lived." (Essex County Deed Book 30, p58).
Children: Joseph, John, CAPT.THOMAS,William, Francis, Richard,James, Ann, Elizabeth.---by Allie Nelson

Joseph married Catherine Anne BROWNING in Virginia. Catherine (daughter of Daniel BROWNING and Rachel) was born in 1694 in Lunenburg, Lunenburg, Virginia, British Colonial America; died on 10 Jun 1738 in Essex, Virginia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events:

• Date and Manner of Death: ; My research indicates she died in 1732, six weeks after the death of her husband--and second son, Joseph--also of a fever.
• FamilySearch ID: L8ST-56M
• Name: Anne BROWNING

Notes:

Gave Land
On July 10, 1715, Francis Browning of St. Mary's Parish gives "for natural love and affection which I have for my well beloved daughter Anne Browning", 100 acres "where I now live", which land was purchased out of a tract formerly granted to Enoch Doughty, adjoining 100 acres sold to Joseph Callaway and land recently taken up by Jn. Sanders (Essex County Wills and Deeds, 1714-1717, p366).
