Does anyone have a James Rodgers born about 1770 or so, who had a wife named Rachel? He was the son of John Rodgers. John Rodgers died in 1798 Greenbrier Co., WV. Not the John who was married to Ann McSwain. Janet

Janet; I have a James Simpson RODGERS who was born abt. 1779 somewhere in North Carolina. I do not know what his wife's name was, however . . . on some scrap of paper somewhere, I have the name of Mary. Rachel is not a name within the childrens' names, but then again, neither is Mary. There were 8 children in this family of James and ?? The children's step-mother was Elizabeth J. and she was rumored to be Chickasaw or of Shawnee descent. She was born abt 1781 in North Carolina as well. I do not believe her to be the mother of these children because Census records show the children as being white and not mulatto. James died in Marshall county Mississippi and is buried in Bethlehem Cemetery, Fayette county, Tennessee.
