Father George Wren, b. Abt 1760, Virginia, United States d. 14 Oct 1832–12 Mar 1835, Waxhaw, Lancaster, South Carolina, United States (Age ~ 75 years) Mother Alletha Dossey, b. Maryland, United States d. Bef 1810, Waxhaw, Lancaster, South Carolina, United States Marriage Abt 1788 Lancaster, South Carolina, United States [2, 3] - The international marriage index lists this as 1798. Clearly, it has to be by 3 Mar 1798 when the oldest child is born. But since there are 2 women listed in the 1790 census, I feel like this is mostly likely just before that census. Probably around 1788.

Notes - Some family stories tell that he settled near Stockton, California but that must be someone else. However, if his wife remarried, then he presumably died rather than went west.
