I picked this up from one of the previous postings. This Fareby Rhea
would appear to be somehow related to the John Rae/Ray of Warren Co., TN.
I cannot be sure but there is certainly an Ezekiel Hudson listed as a
relative of William Gantt Perkins who married Dicy Ray, dau of Aaron Ray
and granddau of John Rae/Ray.

In an e-mail from (Charla A. Marchione) about Grainger
Co., TN., marriages, I found this: Ezekiel Hudson and Fareby Rhea,
3/3/1801, Moses Rhea, bondsman.

Patta Berry Howell same same grandaughter
Ritter Hudson Ray VA same same niece
Ruth Lockhart same same friend
Nancy Ray Cooper same same niece
Moses Ray same Wm G. Perkins nephew-in-law
Washington Cooper same same nephew in-law
Ezekiel Hudson same same same
Benjamin Lockhart same same same

I have seen some mention a Pheobe Diane Rhea who married Elijah Drake as
a daughter of this John Rae but to date I can find no evidence of this.
Possibly Fareby and Pheobe are the same person but if so then the 1790
birthdate for Pheobe must be wrong.
