    Notes 
    • Query whether the marriage date usually shown of 1753 is accurate. Most believe that John Graves moved to the area that was to become Caswell County in 1754. Accordingly, the marriage date of 1753 may be a year too early. Note also that many believe that Isabella Lea was not the first wife of John Graves. Note also, that some researchers claim that John Graves and Isabella Lea were already married when they relocated from Virginia. Researchers are advised to proceed with caution in this area.

      The birth year of 1761 comes from Ancestry.com One World Tree, which also claimed that she was born in Spotsylvania County, Virginia, which is incorrect. Her parents had moved to Caswell County by the mid-1750's. Thus, this birth year is suspect.
