Jonita, a bunch of us are working on a John and Febra Rhea in the Hancock
Co. area, and the story goes that Febra was an Indian found in the woods,
the Rheas raised her and John Rhea (a son) married her. WE ARE SO STUCK.
In your email you said:

It has been suggested in the past that perhaps the following people were
also children of this John Rae/Ray, but I now find that doubtful.

Joseph M. Rhea
Robert P. Rhea
Looney Ray
Lewis Ray (I think Lewis is related somehow, don't think he is a son)
Pheobe Diane Rhea, b. 13 Apr 1790 (think she is too young to be a
daughter)

Do you know anything about this Pheobe Diane Rhea b 1790? Febra could be a
nickname for Pheobe altho the dates don't really match, on the other hand,
nothing I have on this family back this far tends to make sense to me.
Thank you so much.
