Purdum of Ross County Ohio

I am researching a Rebecca Purdom born 24 Aug 1821 in Ohio. She married John T. Selby in Noblesville, Hamilton, IN 13 April 1843. There were two Purdoms in the county in the 1830s, Benj Purdum 2 Oct 1834 and Samuel Purdum 13 April 1835, according to deed records. Benj sold his land 16 Aug 1847. John and Rebecca were in Noblesville 1850-1852, but then moved to Wayne County, Illinois where Rebecca died in 1868. The Benajmin Purdum in Ross County Ohio had a daughter who would fit Rebecca. Do you have any information that might indicate that Benjamin had a daughter Rebecca?
