    [Note: Anna is not recorded in the family registered Vol. 2, p. 197, though a daughter "Eliabeth Ann Rich" is named in his probate {Franklin probate 3905], the widow charging for 86 weeks until she was 2, which given the death of her husband 16 Dec 1811 would places the daughter's 2nd birth in early Aug 1813, within a week or two of the calculated date. It is curious that Allred has a death date but mentions no marriage.]

Nothing shown in picture nor in marriage record connects this person to the daughter of Charles and Anna Rich except the unsourced assertions of the poster.]
