  [S82] Wikitree, https://www.werelate.org/wiki/Person:William_McClanahan_%2816%29. Some sources have stated that this William McClanahan married Sarah Neely, but others have that William McClahanan as the son of Elijah McClanahan and Ann Ewing. More research may be necessary. Since the William McClanahan that married Sarah Neely named his eldest son Elijah (perhaps following traditional naming patterns after his father), and did NOT have a son named Robert, it seems more likely that he was the son of Elijah McClanahan and not Robert.
