Description: You are showing the wife of Dennis Trammell (b. ca. 1759) as "Elizabeth Brassfield," but records indicate she was Elizabeth (maiden name unknown) Brassfield. At the time she married Dennis she was known as "the widow Brassfield." She had been married to a man named Brassfield, had at least two children by him (Milly & Tom), then he passed away, and then she married Dennis Trammell and had four more children (James, Nancy, Peter & David). The act of calling her simply "Elizabeth Brassfield" has been perpetuated all over the internet and has created a multitude of incorrect listings. If you have any documentation showing otherwise, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you. Thanks very much. Sincerely, John
