Notes for William and Susana: According to the William T. Hearne book James was the son of Purnall who was the son of George and this is all I had been able to find from any source. I didn't agree with this because of dates and the fact that George's will did not include Purnall. William's will submitted 5 Feb 1755 "James and Purnall, children to inherit the Ball", in April court 1755, George Hearn was appointed guardian to Purnall and Ebenezer Hearn was appointed guardian to James, both of whom were under the age of fourteen.
In the will of William's father Thomas " I give and bequeath to James Hearne the son of William Hearne 150 acres of land taken out of a tract of land called Stains"

Notes for James and Elizabeth: I have not found a 1st wife for James and birth dates for all children so I have included them all with Elizabeth. They are in the order that I found them listed on James' will.
