  Marriage	Bef 1767  [2, 3]
  	[Some sources suggest that Drury Clanton married Sarah Holt, dau of Charles & Elizabeth Seward Holt.This would be impossible, as Charles was the son of Elizabeth Seward Holt & her husband, William. It is possible that Drury married Sarah Holt, dau of Charles & Sarah Judkins Holt....that Sarah would have been approx the right age....at least one Holt genealogy names this Sarah as the wife of John Clanton, Jr, which is incorrect, his having married Sally Meglamre....perhaps, the Holt's got the last name right & the first name wrong....it should be noted that none of Drury & Sarah Clanton's descendants presently in this data base were given the name "Holt"]
