  1. 1.  John Compton was born on 28 Feb 1747 in Trinity Parish, Charles Co, Maryland; died on 10 Jan 1803 in Kentucky, (probably).

    Notes:

    Parish record of Trinity Protestant Episcopal Church in Charles Co, MD: John Compton, son of Matthew Compton and Rachel his wife was born Feby ye 20th, 174-.
    His wife's name was Margaret. Their daughter Mary Ann Compton was born in 1762. She married Notley Maddox in 1790 in Charles Co, Maryland. Notley was born in St. Mary's Co., Maryland and died November 08, 1813 in Rowan Co, North Carolina.

    NOTE: TODO Check dates! Sarah Browder said this John s/o Stephen (s/o Matthew & Rachel) I think she is wrong. if date of Stephen is correct (1735), he would have had to be abt 12 y.o. John is not mentioned in Stephen's will.

    Lived in Charles Co, MD, and is thought he died in Kentucky. She died before he and the Crabb family moved to KY.

    This is the line of Sarah Browder.
