    • Notes 
      • See Mammy Kate's Registry Form. By legend, word of mouth, and a letter of 1820, and newspaper articles Daddy Jack was the husband of Mammy Kate who rescued Capt. Stephen Heard from being hung by the Tories/British.

        By supposition, world of mouth and legend, Daddy Jack supported Mamma Kate - She and Stephen Heard rode the horses - Silver Heels and Lighffoot back to Stephen Heard's home. Both Daddy Jack and Mammy Kate are buried side by side in the Stephen Heard Cemetery near the gravesite of Gov. Stephen Heard. (See military service of Stephen Heard)
