Rachel Mask(e) 1777-1850 NC
Rachel Mask(e), presumed daughter of one of the William Maskes, of Montgomery Co., NC, was born ca. 1777.She married ca. 1798-1800 William Allen, who died before 1804, leaving her with two children: John M. and James Allen.In 1804 Rachel, married Henry Marshall, son of James Marshall.From this marriage she had two ones, one who died very young, and the other who died as a young man.
From her first marriage Rachel inherited the "famous" Red House of early Montgomery/Stanly County, and Allenton, fame.Rachel died in 1850 in Montgomery Co., NC.
I have two very old letters that state that she was the daughter of William Maske.BUT WHICH ONE?
I would appreciate any help, including future collaboration, in solving this ancient family riddle.
