William McKinney, 84, M [b. 1766] VA
Sally McKinney, 50, F NC

from McKinneygenweb.com
William is son of Daniel McInnish and Sarah Weathers -- I'd like to see some proof.

Per the book "The McKinney Family" by Mildred McKinney Kee
Mary "Polly" McKinney (b.4/2/1788) was a daughter of William McKinney (05/06/1766 -10/31/1857) and his wife Amy Willis McKinney (06/21/1764 - before 1850). Polly married Robert Jones (b.02/25/1790) in 1807 in Rutherford Co, NC.
Ms. Kee also tells us William McKinney was a son Daniel McKinney (AKA Donald McInnish, Jr) b.09/15/1742 and died c 1835, and his wife Sarah Weathers McKinney. She indicates William was born in Sussex Co, VA, and Amy was born in Franklin Co, NC. Although she gives no location for William & Amy's 08/17/1783 marriage, she lists the first three of their eight children as having been born in Franklin Co, NC. She only lists two siblings for William, Seth & Rebecca. Seth (b.1780) married Jane  Merchant & died in 1865 in Grainger, TN. Rebecca (no birthdate given) married George Julian in Mecklenburg Co, NC, 04/09/1791. As these three children were born so far apart, there are probably other siblings.

Found on the web - conflicting info...

William MCKINNEY b. 6 MAY 1766 Sussex Co., VA d. 31 OCT 1857 Lattimore, Cleveland Co., NC, Buried Willis McKinney Cemetery. Cleveland, N.C. Served as a Pvt. from Rutherford Co., NC in the Revolutionary War as a substitute for his father He went to Warrington, Hillsboro, Salisbury and on to Charleston. William states that he returned home to Franklin Co in 1783, thus indicating his parents were still there and soon after married Amy Duggard. [It appears that this person had seen his pension application - does anyone have a copy?] There was a marriage bond for Betsy Dugger and William McKinney in 1817, but this was William H, McKinney, son of this William.
