I have been looking into John Lane Dabney in South Carolina, and my interst is perked by a will of Cornelius Dabney and wife Mary "Molly" Lane Dabney in Bedford Co. Va, dated 1792. Is John L the son of Cornelius and Mary "Molly" Lane? Also looking at the census closely in 1800, 1810 and 1820. The "S" that have been assigned to John Lane's father by the Texas Dabneys looks more like a "L" to me and was transcribed as such in ancestry.com files. So could John "S" really be and "L" for Lane, his mother maiden name? I think his year of birth is between 1766 and 1774. (leaning more toward the 1766) John Lane Dabney would be my husband's gg grandfather.
