  Notes	He may or may not have been a military colonel - some sources indicate the title may have been something of a 'courtesy title' for an under-sheriff Imprisoned for debt in Augusta Co & property there signed over to the Sheriff and put up for sale in 1829, upon which the 'Colonel' promptly moved (with the former Miss Noel) to Missouri (Ralph Doak - http://cwcfamily.org/idl/robtdoak.htm)
