James Justice and Sarah Keeter

James Justice was born between 1780 and 1790.  He married Rachel Geer.  After Rachel's death, he married Sarah Keeter.

Children of James Justice and Rachel Geer are:
1.  Elizabeth Justice (married Keeter)
2.  Susannah Justice (married Keeter)

Children of James Justice and Sarah Keeter
3.  John A. Justice (married Sarah Wallace)

Possible parents:
1.  Amos Justice and Mary McBrayer have an unknown son who would have been born around 1787.  They lived for a time in Buncombe County, North Carolina.  Though this possibility is probably not correct as this oldest son is still living within Amos's household in 1810.
2.  Thomas Justice and Mary Dyer have 2 sons who may be old enough to be his father:  Ezra and John.  I have no information for either of these men or their descendants.
3.  Jared/Jarrett Justice has a son in 1790 listed as under sixteen.  I do not know his identity.  Perhaps he is James?  Jared is the only Justice left in Rutherford Co. NC with James in 1810.  The William listed 2 doors from him in 1830 could possibly be Jared's son.
4.  I cannot see any other Justice men who were descendants of John and Mary Moore Justice who could be his father. (The only men in Rutherford Co. NC in 1790 were Amos, Jared, Thomas Sr., and Thomas Jr.)  If these men are not his father, then he must be a descendant of the Charles City, Virginia Justices, who I have not researched.

If anyone has a record to show James's parents or can provide other possibilities of men I may have overlooked, please let me know!
