The eleven children for whom there is evidence are all listed in the 1860 Fauquier Co census for the Telem and Peggy “Pearson” household. Even with the presumably incorrect surname, this record is particularly useful since it is likely that the children are listed in birth order, despite what might be found for their ages in other sources. The birth years for the children are remarkably varied in the various available records, probably because most were illiterate, as were their parents. The children order in the chart below is based on the 1860 census. The names and birth and death dates are compiled from multiple records and are subject to change as new records are found.
