Notes:

A William Wallace gave a deposition 25 Sep 1802 in Northumberland Co. in the case of Craven Everitt and Thomas Hutchings. I believe this may be the father of this family.

More than likely the family came from Dorchester Co. MD. Wallace is a common name there along with Slacum and Travers, both of whom married into the Slacum family.
