    Notes:

    !She was scalped by Indians,as told by Nannie Jackson.After much research and
    figuring all possibilities,for the following reasons I believe she is the
    daughter of Isaac Eoff and Margaret Knox.#1-Her son Married a Carolyn Knox who
    is a cousin of Cynthia,according to Nanny Jackson.Cynthia's mother would have
    to be a Knox for this to happen.#2-Isaac is buried in Coffee co.TN,which
    borders Rutherford co.on the southeast.#3-Isaac was married in 1783,Cynthia was
    born 1783.#4-Isaac lived in KY before He lived in TN.TN was KY before it split
    off.Phillip Prater married Cynthia in Puluski,TN.#5-These families were the
    very first settlers in this part of TN,The odd's are they are family.

    Cynthia Eoff was thought to be the daughter of Isaac Eoff and sister to
    John Eoff who married Elizabeth Prather (1850 census Div. #2, Pulaski Co.,Ky.
    son William Eoff born 1826 in Pulaski Co., Ky. Ref.File #436)
