I did a little looking in some of the old Comptonology that I have and found the following.
In will book 8 page 421, Charles Co., Md. list these children of Mathew and Rachel Compton; Zachariah, Mathew, John, Alexander, Edmund, Howard, Margaret, Elizabeth, Susann md. Turner, William, Wilder, and Stephen.
Also in another Vol. it list a Dr. Z. J Compton b. 1801, d1866 as the son of E. Howard Compton and Elizabeth Yates.
Hope this will help.

THis wek I came across a artice on the Middleton Family published in the Pennsylvania Genealogiocal Magazine Volume 19 In it it states that James Middleton and sarah Smith had a daughter Mary who married a ___
Hawkins. The information you sent on the family said Mary Ann married our Ancestor Zachariah Compton. Could this have been a second marriage for Mary? Every thing else fits very nicely so wondered.
MOre later as I keep digging. Is also some good commenst of the Wheeler and Smith Families in the above articel also
