Colleen, I think that what Laura is sending us are from the LDS
microfish. I looked that the copy I made from those microfish many years
ago and it does show Polly born in 1808 in Weakley County, Tn. Again
these records came from the Nash papers and we know they are inaccurate.
We know because of census, marriage dates and Polly's pension request
that she was born in VA/NC circa 1794.
For instance they have David marrying Martha Mann in 1781 in Iredell
County, NC they had to have married much eariler because they are in Va
census and signing deeds in the 1780 by 1785 with 6 in their household-
they have him marrying Mrs. Mary Gracey Cashin in 1792 Iredell, NC. The
actual date of the marriage was January 9, 1800 in Iredell - for Sarah
Harvell and David they have the right date, June 6, 1813 in Iredell.
They have Mary Ann d/o of David and mary Gracey born in 1794, Iredell
(David wasn't there yet) and Polly - David Cashin and no mother born in
1808. That is what makes it so confusing. In fact looking in here - and
I had fogotten this they don't have any of David's children born in VA -
Iredell is the first place they picked him up.
Gee, I hadn't looked at those in a long time.
