bullet General Notes:

We have had quite a journey trying to validate who John's father acturally was. The originial posting of John Jackson Dehart showed that Elijah Dehart (b. 1777 and died 1846 in Patrick County, VA) was his father. We, as others, copied from a family tree that stated this lineage. However, Elijah's will was located https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/2033466:62347?tid=&pid=&queryId=b89da88d91eb9cf4b5bfc93ac2937b54&_phsrc=Zoz18477&_phstart=successSource and he did in fact have a son name John but his middle initial was "S" not "J". It became clear at this point who was not his father.

We are still trying to locate his father and valid information you may have would be appreciated.
