This is an old posting, but I am confused about some of the dates posted for the children of Richard Cohea/Cohee and Rodice Rentfrow.

Rhodisa Cohee is shown as born in 1859. Since Rodice Rentfrow was born August 03, 1798 (as per her father's {Hickman Hensley} Bible, this would make her 61 at the time of this birth.

The 1850 Effingham County, Illinois census has her age as 56 at the time of the census,(18 September 1850) so that is fairly consistant with the Bible record. Her obituary listed her as 96 when she died on March 29, 1892. She was too old to have given birth to Rodisa, if the date is correct.

I also question a couple of these other births. Has the parentage of all these children been proven?
