    Notes:

    As reported by Norma Dilingham Morgan, of Weaverville, NC, the death record from Buncombe County says that Marvel was the son of William Riddle and Pressil Renfoe. The only William Riddle in Buncombe (Yancey, 1833) County in 1825 was William Riddle, son of John W. Riddle, Sr. Thanks to the efforts of Mary Cathryn Riddle Watts the mystery of the ancestry of Marvel Riddle has been solved. The identity of Marvel's father has eluded many Riddle family researchers for several years.
