of:.
{442} 30Sep1753 Will of William Moss, Sr., witnessed by Elizabeth Bandy.
{1661} Because of:.
{1106} 10Nov1753 "spinster" Elizabeth Bandy and William Moss, Jr., pledge to
marry one another.
{1661} we think it just as likely that the witness to the will was "spinster"
Elizabeth.
{1139} Witness to will uses half circle as mark, which was what "spinster"
Elizabeth used; not "+" used by Elizabeth, wife of Richard.

{1127} Etta Bandy Jent's handwritten notes list Solomon as a twin to Thomas.
{790} Other family tradition says Richard had a twin, Solomon.
{1552} Is this the Solomon listed as being in Revolutionary Army in Warren
Cty NC.
{398} .
{1552} ? It is interesting that "brother" Thomas was in the Battle of
Guilford Court House (Greensboro, Guilford Cty NC).

{1247} B 1773.
{1248} B 1770.
{1661} These latter two are highly unlikely: 1) He would have been only 9 -
12 years old at birth of first ch, 2) his father conveyed land to him
in 1783 (see chapter on "Which George is Which?").

{229} In his 21Jul1795 will, Richard Bandy leaves to "Henry Bandy son of
Ann
Bandy now wife of James Neighbors.".
{255} /{258 shows Nancy, a dau of Richard marrying James Neighbors on
