Individual Details
(1821 - Abt 1847)
Rebeckah was a minor child when her father wrote his will, 1834 - the wording of the will would seem to indicate she was the youngest. However, his estate papers reveal that she was instead the eldest daughter. She married Charles F. Rough prior to the Fall Term of court in 1841 and they petitioned for a sale of her father's lands - two tracts, one of 108 acres, the other 186 acres. The lands were falling into decay. Rebecca was about 20 years old and they stated that another twelve months wait would only cause further injury to all concerned. That it would be in the interest of all the heirs to sell the plantation. James was the only one still a minor - Meshack Pinkston his guardian.
