"Peter Randolph5 Cabaniss (William4, John3, Matthew2, Henri1), born in Nottoway County, Virginia 1798 - 1801, probably ca 1801, the only son of 2251 William and his second or third wife, the widow Sophia (Sherwin) Pincham. He was dead by April 12, 1834, for in the Jackson Mississippian, April 19, 1834 (and continuing through April 12, 1834), appeared a notice of the earlier date by his administrator in Mississippi (David Johnston was administrator in Alabama), Elisha Mayfield, almost certainly his brother-in-law (born South Carolina 1795), concerning "Land (about 500 acres purchased by Peter and Elisha from the public domain, patent dated June 4, 1833), tenements, and hereditaments" owned by Peter R. Cabaniss, deceased, in Holmes County, Mississippi. Both Peter and Elisha are listed among heads of families in Yazoo County (Holmes was divided from Yazoo in 1833) in Irene S. and Norman E. Gillis, Mississippi 1830 Census. Two of Peter's children, the twins Obadiah and Elizabeth (Betsy) Ann, were indeed born in Mississippi."
