Note	"Elizabeth Short, the daughter of William Short and wife Eliazab eth, was borncirca 1767 in North Carolina. She married Eli Mul lins in Pike County,Kentucky on 3 October 1824. Elizabeth was o ver twenty one and did not need parental permission for her marr iage. This rules out the mis information that she was the daugh ter of William's second wife Polly Birchfield. The exact deat hdate of her mother is not known, but it is known that Willia m married a second time between 1805-1810. The age on her marri age record indicated that shewas too old to be a child of the s econd marriage. Hopefully, this put thiscontroversy to rest al so. (One thing for certain, people from West Virginiahave comm on sense and can do simple arithmetic!)
