10 Alternate dates: Birth: 1755 Death: 15 Aug 1841
1. Mary's Surname may have been something else...
2. Betty Price Kuykendall States that Mary's name was not Hambright. She further states that Frederick Hambright's daughter Mary, married Reece Price and moved to Northeast Alabama. All Hambright children have been accounted for, both in his will and other records.
3. The Hambrick family is often confused with the Hambright family. They are two different families. I have no idea who Mary (James's wife) was, but she was not a Hambright.
1. Janelle Foster reports year of birth for Mary was 1755...another source reports 9 Jan 1762
2. Cathy Gowdy reports that this person was not Mary Hambright because Col. Frederick Hambright's daughter, Mary, married Reece Price and moved to NE Alabama,and gives reference to p.270, German Speaking People West of the Catawba River in North Carolins 1750-1800, by Lorena Schell Eaker,...maybe Hambrick?
1. Mary & Reece Price supposedly moved Westward... to NE Alabama per Cathy Gowdy.
