In Dick's chart it says Nancy Winn Bullock was married to Thomas Rhea, son of
William Rhea Jr. and Elizabeth Brownlee.

In my records it says Mary Winn Bullock. Doesn anybody have evidence that
would point either way.

I do have a book titled A Historical Trip Through Barren County, Ky. by CC
Simmons

page 151 second paragraph listing the children born to Edward and Hannah
(Clark) Bullock: Fanny Paulina, who married Thomas Hargrove, September 28th,
1815; Hannah Rebecca, who married Joseph A. Moss, 1835; Catherine R., was
married to John W. Bell, 1832; John Waller, who married Minerva Glover, 1833;
Edward Isaac, who married Maria Emerson; David, who married a widow (name
unknown); Robert, never married; Louisa, who married a Mr. Crockett, a
relative of David Crockett; Harriett married a Biggers; Judith married Thomas
