Notes:

Evidently, two Christian Zettys were born in Pennsylvania in the early 1760s, and both married women named Barbara. Thus, many records and trees conflate the two men. Our Christian was born in 1762, and moved to Rockingham County, Virginia with his parents, and he married Barbara Miller there. I do not know when he moved to Tennessee. The other Christian Zetty remained in Pennsylvania, and is mentioned in many Bucks County records.
