Regarding the family of Francis PEYTON (1764-1836) on page 117 of “PEYTONs Along the Aquia,” 2004, it seems the source that I used (#434-#441, page 216) contained a number of inaccuracies. I will update those that I have found so far. There is a Bible record that documents that on 20 October 1789, Francis PEYTON married Sarah FOUSHEE: “Francis PEYTON and Sarah FOUSHEE were married at Alexandria the 20th October 1789.” Sarah (Foushee) PEYTON left a will in Alexandria County, Virginia dated 12 November 1848 (Will Book 5). Francis PEYTON died at Alexandria County, District of Columbia (now Virginia). I find no documentation that Francis PEYTON married before 1786, to a Sarah WEST (1769-1849), as given by source #435, and I do not know who she is.
The son of Francis PEYTON #207 on page 216, is recorded in the PEYTON bible as “Thomas Jefferson,” with a birth-date of 30 September 1797. I am not certain of the ancestry of Thomas West PEYTON (a1782-1819) who served during the War of 1812, and married Sophia Matilda DUNDAS.
I will make a future posting regarding my findings of a Sarah WEST who did marry into the PEYTON family. This is the Sixth Correction to my Peyton book – “PEYTONs Along the Aquia,” published 2004. Here is a link to a post on GenForum about this Francis PEYTON, which agrees with my own research: Wesley E. Pippenger.

Dan – Thank you for posting the link to the Find-A-Grave photos of the tombstone of Sarah. I have written about them: Sarah – Consort of Colonel Francis PEYTON.
I’m sorry; I didn’t post the link to Colonel Francis Peyton, who is buried next to his wife, Sarah West Peyton.

Also, what do you make of the 1st link I’ve provided?

Thanks for the update. I mentioned my interpretation of page 500 of Reverend Hayden’s genealogy at my new “Peyton Book Blog.” If you are wondering about the children that Reverend Hayden’s lists, I have documented a few of them, but not all. There are wills and DAR records that may document all of these children, besides Hayden. I just have not taken the time and effort to go through all of that.
