Notes
a. Note:   N52 He built “Clover Fields” in 1760 on part of the 1730 land grant of 17,952 acres patented by his great-grandfather, Nicholas Meriwether II. Descendants of his granddaughter, Margaret Douglas Meriwether, still live at “Clover Fields”. After his death, his children were raised by their grandfather, Parson William Douglas.
b. Note:   N22991 <b>Nicholas Meriwether and Gen. Braddock</b>
 Many Meriwether histories incorrectly state that Nicholas helped the mortally wounded Gen. Braddock off the field and was given a coat by Braddock’s sister. This was his uncle Nicholas Meriwether (1720-1758).
  The following story on the Monticello.org site is incorrect when discussing Nicholas Meriwether's involvement with Gen. Braddock: <a href="http://www.monticello.org/library/exhibits/lucymarks/lucymarks/bios/colnicholasmeriwether.html">Col. Nicholas Meriwether</a>
