Marriage records have been found for John, William, and Rosetta. All confirm that their mother was Sarah Rutledge, though one, John's, names her as Eliza. Thomas himself states that he was born in Beverly Township on his marriage registration to Jane Marie. John Watson says on his marriage registration that he was born in Waterloo Township.

Elizabeth 'Watson' will actually be Hugh McKenzie's child. Smith Watson is probably Jane's by Thomas Watson, though a confirming record has yet to be found.
