James Bland and Idia Dawson's 31 July 1813 marriage license/certificate has Abraham Peters cosigning with James. Has anyone researched Abraham? I'd be interested in what you've learned. I noticed that there is a puzzling family tree on Ancestry.com that lists an Abraham Peters (b. 1752 Augusta/Rockingham Co. VA; d. abt. 1814 Washington Co. VA) who married wife 2 Elizabeth Waide on 25 Oct. 1813 in Monroe Co. VA. However, if this particular Abraham Peters died about 1814, he could not be the father of the child listed for him - Catherine Peters - as she was b. in 1820 in Monroe Co. VA. So I have to ask, was this a younger Abraham Peters who married Catherine Peters? I am interested in learning more about the Abraham Peters that cosigned with James Bland on James' marriage license and if the Abraham Peters who married Elizabeth Waide is a different one, about him. I have Ancestry.com, so I am in the process of looking for source records and family tree information about him there, but as you can see some of the trees contain contradictory information.
