Hi List,
I have never been able to find my ancestor and have not sent to this list
for a long time. I will try one more time, maybe someone new on the list.

My Rhea ancestor

ELIZABETH RHEA
She was born in Va. ca.1800
On 27 Nov,1817 Besty Rhea married Jeptha Windsor in Logan Co. KY.
land transactions in Madison Co. IL.[Edwardsville IL.] from 1821 to 1827
Betsey divorce from Jepha Windsor granted 1835.

Elizabeth's [ Betsey] children by Jeptha Windsor
1. Jesse Alexander born ca. 1819, died 21 June 1891 Morgan Co. IL
2. Matilda Ann born 7 June 1820 Madison Co. IL., died 6 Oct. 1893
Jackson Co. Mo.
Married Jacob Cameron 14 April 1836 Madison Co. IL.
3.James born ca. 1825, died 4 Jan. 1900 Lewis Co. Mo.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------
Elizabeth Windsor marries Benjamin G. Riney 1836 in Adams Co. IL.
They make their home in Knox Co. Mo.
1. Joseph L. Riney, born May 1836 Mo.

Have not been able to find death date for Elizabeth, she is still living
in 1886.
A small group of us have been working on trying to find our Rhea
connection
for a very long time,we have a lot of documentation on Elizabeth [
Betsey] and
her children. I hope someone will see something in the name's that
Elizabeth gave her children. Also, please keep in mind that Logan Co. Ky.
is
right on the Tennessee line,as well as others. A lot of people went to
another
state to get married.

Thank you for any help you can give us.

Sondra
