Consent Forms for Jean Collyer
After the death of his second wife, Mary Sanders, in 1826, Teague age 56 married for a third time. Jean Collyer was about 22 years old and there were consent papers drawn up and signed by Teague, Jean and her father, Richard Collyer. Teague was about 35 years older than Jean.
The proof was found by Jenny Kidd as she pounded the pavement, went to the courthouse and found the documents below.

Teague Quillin V Marries His 3rd Wife Jane Collyer
I found a website that stirred my interest because it had a third wife for Teague. I began to research and I believe it is true. Many family trees have his last two children as Mary Sanders' children, but I found a distant cousin, Jenny Kidd, who is a descendant through his 3rd wife. Jenny has actually gone to the area and the courthouse and documented this marriage.
I would like to thank the Potter Family for their diligent research, as I would never have known this. At the bottom of the second screenshot, a name was cut off. in the 1850 Scott Co VA Census there was a James Palmore age 14 listed with John and Rebecca Quillen.
