*No surviving children

**Annie’s name appears also to have been Nancy (Nannie), as her surviving daughter and the four children of the other daughter all identify her as Nancy (Ross) Nave.

Note: Ruth (Downing) Lynch notes in her Miller Roll application that her mother had a half-sister named Elmira Nave (apparently from a second marriage of William Nave), and she mentions an uncle named Louis (her two sisters spell it Lewis) who died on the road in the move from Georgia (1833/34).
