        Several death certificates of the children of John Horton and Eliza Ann Powell give their mother's name as Martha or Mary. A decendant of William Joshua Horton (born 1844 in Caswell County stated that the story was that Eliza said her name was not Eliza Ann and that she hated to be called Eliza Ann. That would explain the Mary Powell/Martha Powell name discrepancy.
