Issues of adoption or infidelity:  We have a photo of Andrew Jackson Kirkpatrick b. 1868 and just by the looks of all descendants by this man, there is a resemblance and to me they seem to be legitimate. All of our ancestors were all middle children except for Edmund Singleton Kirkpatrick, he and his twin sister (who died very young) were the only children of John Kirkpatrick and Rebecca Singleton.  I have not found a marriage record for John and Rebecca  and she seems to have died right after twins were born.  However in John's will years later, he mentions Edmund Kirkpatrick and calls him his son.  I feel that perhaps John was not Edmund's father but of course I cannot prove it.
