| Notes |
- Richard Singleton and his wife, Martha James Singleton, moved from Sumter, South Carolina to Clarendon County, Mississippi the Old Spanish Mississippi Territory. Their son, Dr. (as in Methodist Minister, ordained) Joseph James Singleton moved from Mississippi back into Georgia as an adult, marrying a Miss Mary Ann Terrell on Jan. 24, 1825 in Greene County, Georgia. They later moved to Dahlgreen.

***
Richard Singleton and his second wife (?) are in Wilkinson County, Mississippi, along with William Bracey and (Sarah?) Singleton.
Someone, I know not who, recently (I think) posted a will for Richard Singleton who died in 1811 in Mississippi. I have a copy, printed out, somewhere. That Will lists his surviving wife as Martha James. "From memory" this will, which I posted a copy of to the Singleton web page, noted that Richard Singleton's will due to his very small estate value was probated in the old Juvenile Court system of the Spanish Mississippi Territory, and gave various details. I put "my money" on fact of that long lost will of Richard Singleton that Martha James Singleton was Richard Singleton's wife at his death, ie, his 2nd, not 1st, wife.
