    • [Family tradition says John Quarles married Frances Winters in 1816.]
      In Deposition R, Case of Malinda Butler, No. 3909, dated 30 Jun 1897, Levi Mote states that he knew James Butler from boyhood and that James married a cousin of his, Rhoda Quarles (Levi's mother was Mary Quarles, daughter of Moses Quarles, which offers further evidence that Rhoda is the daughter of John Quarles, who was the son of Moses Quarles).
      "I'm of the opinion that Rhoda was the daughter of John Qualls and Frances Winters. Unfortunately, I have little documentation to that effect. Historical records (newspaper accounts) document that David Butler was a cousin of John Marion Quarles, also a grandson of John Quarles/Frances Winters. This also ties Rhoda Quarles to the John Quarles/Frances Winters family. I believe David Quarles (John Marion's father) and Rhoda were brother & sister."
