I am not sure how this relates to the large Rhea family, but thought I would
tell you that Robert and Sarah Bingham Rhea had a son Robert. He married in
1787 to Mary Stephens. He had a sister Ann Rhea Turk. Her husband Thomas Turk
Jr. moved to Tennessee and were living in Blount County when he died in 1833.
Their children according to a descendent were James Turk, Robert Turk,
Archibald Rhea Turk, Elizabeth Turk, Margaret Turk, William Turk, Hiram Turk,
Sally Turk, and Thomas Turk. per Robert Perry Rhea, Bath Co. Bicentennial
Book 1990.

Another thing that might be interesting to you is that Ann Rhea, daughter of
Robert and Sarah Bingham Rhea was born in 1759 in Mecklenburg Co. NC and died
in 1836 Blount co. TN.

Here are the names of the Children above and their spouses,
1. Sally Turk
2. James Turk b. abt. 1777 in Augusta Co. Va., d. 1835 Jackson Co. AL. m. abt.
1807 to Mary/ Polly Marcland
3. Robert Turk b. abt. 1782
4. Thomas Turk III b. March 15, 1782 Augusta Co. Va.
m. December 26, 1802 in Wythe Co. Va. spouse Mary Gleaves
5. Margaret Turk b. abt. 1785 m. William E. Robertson March 16, 1808 in
Augusta Co. Va.
6. Elizabeth Turk b. abt. 1792 m. June 20, 1814 in Augusta Co. Va.
to Thomas Harris, Jr.
7. Archibald Rhea Turk b. July 4, 1794 in Augusta co. Va m. Gincy Jane
Maupine, October 14, 1813; in ? d. December 25, 1843 in McMinn Co. Tn.
8. Hiram Kerr Turk b. abt. 1796 in Augusta Co. Va.
9. William R. Turk b. abt. 1800 m. December 14, 1812 in Albermarle Co. Va. to
Sarah H. Harris

Now what I am saying here is perhaps your family you are researching is
related to this family. Unfortunately for you and me, is that I am not
familiar with the above Rhea Family.
