I am having difficulty with the parents of Martha Claiborne of Bristol Parish Virginia. She married a Cary James and they later moved to Rutherford County, Tennessee. Many have her father as Burnell Claiborne but I have found evidence that his daughter Martha married a Mr. Jarrett. I believe my Martha Claiborne is of the William Claiborne line but can't put it all together. Her daughter is cited in an old Virginia Historical Society document giving family history on the William Claiborne line but no mention of her own line from Martha. Additionally, Cary James and Thomas Claiborne engaged in a land exchange in Rutherford County, Tennessee. Any help would be most appreciated.
