John also noted Abraham Stacy, husband of John's daughter Elizabeth (Royal) Stacy. There was a William Royal that was witness to John Royal's will,POSSIBLY the 1814 William.Jesse 1812 and William 1814 could also POSSIBLY have been nephews to John Royal 1760.In 1820 Jackson Co TN census, 3 Royal households,John sr, John jr, William.
