| Notes |
- Margaret was a tiny person. Her husband Rees was a powerful man. Many stories have been told about his physical feats. It has been said that she could stand in the palm of his hand and he could pick her up and hold her with his arm extended.
Only two of their children were of age when their father was killed, but their mother raised the orphan children and they continued the tradition of accomplishments of their ancestors. (Draper, King's Mountain and its Heroes; History of the Battle of King's Mountain, p. 406
