1) Thomas's third child = "Mary Isham Randolph" (insert middle name)

2) Mary Isham Randolph married "Rev James Keith of Virginia" (insert title & state)

3) Delete reference to James Keith as descended from the Earls Marischal of Scotland. The younger son of William Keith, 9th Earl Marischal, and brother to George Keith, the 10th (and last) Earl Marischal, was Field Marshal James Edward Francis Keith, not Rev James Keith of Virginia.

Rev James Keith is not infrequently referred to as "first cousin" to the 10th Earl Marischal, but as William Keith was an only son, his son George Keith had neither uncle nor cousin. See Earls Marischal lineage and sourced argument against descent in Fleischaker, Gail Raney, "Correcting and Expanding the Record of the Rev James Keith," Magazine of Virginia Genealogy, Volume 55, No. 4 (2017),pp. 271-272 (https://mediasvc.ancestry.com/v2/stream/namespaces/1093/media/4fd59109-aad2-4831-89c2-7dfbbebb2d31.pdf?client=TreesUI&download=true&filename=Mag%20Va%20Gen_Vol55%20No4_Keith.pdf) HeleneDesRacines (talk) 20:21, 7 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
