Notes for MARY PATSEY OR PANSEY NORRIS (PANSLEY KING):

I have thought that Pansley King was the mother of James Nathaniel and his siblings.  Due to information and census reports I believe they were the same person.  Also I'd like to say it is still possible that there was a Pansley King Cowles but I think it is about a 5% chance of that.  In Warren County Marriage Register Mary Norris is listed as Patsey Norris.  Speculation: Mary Norris full name was Mary Patsey King Norris.  Some people think that Patsey or Pansley whatever you want to call her that she was married to a King before Vincent but I don't believe this happened.  Vincent and Patsey were married according to the Warren Co. Marriage Register.  They were around the age of 21.  Their son my 2nd great grandfather James was born in 1825 they were around the age of 33.  According to a 1850 cenus they were still married being at the age of 58.  Some problems though if I read it correctly Mary P. was born in TN.  I read in a census report that said his (James N.) mother was !born in VA.?????  Maybe Mary's mother was a King or something and they named her that.  The Cowles Families in America might have wrote the wrong name down.  Debbie Gravens grandaughter of William Arthur and Mae Cowles interviewed her grandmother Mae she gave what she had by memory had said that Vincent D.'s wife was Pansley King.  This is a mystery to me.
