There is some dispute over the correct parentage of David. He is
not identified in the St. Paul parish precessioning records with
the Robert Anderson family. Edward L. Anderson believed him to
be Robert's son, William Pope Anderson was not sure. If the
reader wishes to be very cautious, you might look closely at the
King William County Anderson family to see if he connects there.
But as the Robert I have as his father married an Overton, and
David's sons was David Overton Anderson, I plan to leave him
here until I find evidence to the contrary."
