Yes, I combined them because they both were married to Carter Braxton.
Sadly, Judith died shortly after the birth of her second daughter, at 21, the same age as her husband. Both daughters survived to adulthood and married.
Elizabeth married Carter four years later. They had 16 children, some of whom died in infancy or as children.
