Note that William is about 25 years older that Martha. There is confusion on the husbands of Martha Buttall, and overlapping dates in the various sources, indicating that two or more individuals are confused in the reports. One fact supporting this is that Thomas Wynne, rep[roted to have married Martha Buttall, immigrated to Philadelphia form Wales, and Philadelphia is reported as the place of death of Martha Buttall who married William Thompson. But William Thompson and his wife Martha are associated with Virginia, not Philadelphia. There may have been two women of the same name, one in Virginia and the other in Philadelphia, or the maiden name has been imposed. some sources for William Thompson's wife have only her first name of Martha.
