Notes - Richard Walser in his book, "Jeremiah Adderton and Some of His Descendants" tells the story of a teenaged Rebecca Travers who leaves Charles County, Maryland and runs off with Jere Adderton, a widower with 5 children. Jere first married Ann Price (ca 1747) and had the 5 children mentioned above. He decides to move south and Rebecca is determined to leave with him. They traveled down the Potomac River to Virginia and then to Orange County, North Carolina and on to the banks of the Yadkin River in lower Rowan County, North Carolina.
If Rebecca Travers was born in 1758, was she the mother of Jeremiah (b. 1767): John (b. 1770) and William (b. 1772)? Was Ann Price the mother of these sons?
Rebecca remarried in 5 April 1779 to James Daniels (who died 11 Feb 1817, Rowan, NC). They had 9 more children. Children by Daniels are: Travis Daniel, Woodson, Elizabeth, James, Mary Polly, Rebecca, Nancy, Jayhus and Poindexter?
