Hi everyone, I have info I am willing to share on these families; not so much [but looking for] info on ROBERTSON and RAKESTRAW. Elizabeth RAKESTRAW (1820-1899) married John "Jack" SMITH (son of Drury and Eleanor "Nellie" [GROGAN] SMITH), 1842, lived her whole life in Rockingham County. I have never been able to place her among the Rockingham RAKESTRAW families. Elizabeth (Betsy) ROBERTSON (1737-bef 1822) married Robert MEANS [son of William and Elizabeth [???] MEANS], ca 1755, Bucks Co., PA. They came to Rockingham County about 1779. Thanks and have a great day! Debi Elliott
