Ancestry Keziah Long

 Facts: 

1. We know that Gabriel Long was Keziah's father based on the land deed that he donated to her in 1846 in Columbus County, N.C.  He claims it was a wedding gift but the birth of the children Caroline (1835) Annie Jane (1837) and John Wilson Jacobs (1839) suggest they were married before 1846. 

2. The documented family history of Dorcas Long, Keziah's sister, tell us that Gabriel was the father of the girls.
