  • Notes 
    • Jane Knox Pettus was the daughter of Samuel Knox, who was the brother
      of John Knox (1722 - 1777). John Knox was the grandfather of Samuel B.
      Knox, so Samuel B. and Cynthia Pettus were 2nd cousins. Old John also
      had a son Samuel, brother of James, Samuel B.'s father. Samuel Knox,
      son of John, had a son James B. Knox who married Rebecca Pettus, who
      was the sister of Cynthia. This James would have been a 1st cousin of
      Samuel B., so that James B. also married his 2nd cousin.
