    3. My great-great-grandmother gave me fits when I was first trying to find her. I knew her name as Rachel, but I couldn't find a Rachel with parents in 1850. Her son's obit gave her name as Rachel Lee, which didn't help any. Her sister's death certificate gave her parents' names, so I went back to the 1850 census. There was an Elizabeth in the family, but that still didn't fit. When I finally found her tombstone, it tied everything together -- her name was "Rachel E." -- thus explaining the "Rachel Lee" and Elizabeth! Jenny
