    This site, owned by Greg Young, is a compilation of family trees from various sources, but sources are not cited. It gives Rachel's birth year as 1772 in Lee, Virginia.

    This tree gives Rachel's birth year as about 1780 in Virginia.

  4. It is unlikely that Rachel's birth year can be determined accurately from online sources.
  5. The death place is an assumption based on an article posted in Find A Grave (her father-in-law's memorial #25107385), that indicates that Rachel's husband came to "this section of the country" - assumed to mean Wayne, West Virginia - in 1803.
