      Sharon Holland provided to me some interesting information recently re: the children of Jacob and Priscillia Strickland originally of Guilford County, NC:

She then married James Allen and moved to Habersham County Georgia where she died leaving 5 Gilbert children named: Bill, Jim, Betsy, John, and Nancy, and three Allen children namely Thomps, Bob, and Henry."

      Online trees also show Mary and James as the mother of David, Thomps, John and Harriet, without citing sources.
