The wife of David Meriwether was named Anne, but her maiden name is unknown except through family history stating it was Holmes or Hoomes. Very little information has come down through the records regarding her. She was supposedly the daughter of George Holmes of Queen & King County, Virginia. There are multiple references to George and his life, but none reference a daughter named Anne or any Meriwether gandchildren.

None of David and Anne's eight children have any of the Holmes names, either "George" or "Holmes" as a middle name, such as will appear in succeeding generations, when the maiden names of wives are carried forward in the children's names.
