Hi, there,
I noticed your post because of Appanoose co., which is a rather obscure place where my grandmother's line is from,
(but not Rucker or Boatwright).Anyway, I see this is several years back when you posted this, so I don't know if you have found more info, but I did a look up for you on another website.I found over 28 family trees with your relatives listed.Here is an overview (hope it helps):
1.Nancy Ann Boatwright
Birth 1790
Death 1833 in Springfield, Illinois
(posted by Mark Greer on ancestry website, in the Perkins-Oglesby Public family tree); interestingly, Greer is my maiden name!)
2. O'Donnell Jr Family Tree, same website:
Nancy Ann Boatwright
Birth 5 Apr 1783
Death Apr 1833 in Springfield, Sangamon, Illinois
Marriage #1 to Skip Harris Stegar: 3 Dec 1805, in Cumberland, Cumberland, Virginia
Marriage #2 to Joshua Carter Rucker: 7 Jun 1812 in Cumberland, Cumberland, Virginia, United States
-----------------------------------------
Her father:James Boatright
Birth 1697 in Virginia, United States
Death 10 Jan 1815 in Hanover, Virginia, United States
Marriage #1to Mary Kidd in 1768
Cumberland, Cumberland, Virginia, United States (2 sources cited)
Marriage #2to Elizabeth Kidd in 1768
Cumberland, Virginia, United States (1 source cited)
They had 20 children, including Nancy Ann!
Marriage #3to Mary Kidd in 1778
Cumberland, Cumberland, Virginia, United States
*There are technical date problems with these facts.You should investigate for yourself.His parents are listed as:
1. Dad-John Boatwright, Birth 1710 in New Kent, New Kent, Virginia; Death 1775 in Hanover, Virginia.
2. Mom -Baker, birth 1715 in Virginia; Death 1770 in Hanover, Virginia,
Married in 1733, Virginia.
---------------------------------------------------
Nancy Ann, for some reason, is listed as the only child of Mary Kidd, but then again as a child of Elizabeth Kidd.Could Elizabeth and Mary be the same person or sisters?
Elizabeth Kidd
Birth 01 Sep 1672 in Middlesex, Virginia (source cited as Christ Church Parish, Virginia Births, 1653-1812);
Death 1777 in Charles City, Charles, Virginia.
Her parents:
1. Dad - Thomas Kidd
Birth 8 Jan 1626 in Soham, Cambridgeshire,England
Death 28 May 1680 in Rappannock River, Middlesex, Virginia;
2. Mother - Jane Vizt
Birth 1635 in Middlesex, Virginia
Death 1680 in Middlesex, Virginia
------------------------------------------------------
For other possible mother, Mary Kidd (Birth 1750
Death 1815) , a marriage record is cited from the source and with these facts listed (notice the name is NOT MARY, but ELIZABETH! Plus, the birth year for spouse doesn't match above):
Name: Elizabeth Kidd
Gender: Female
Birth Place: of VA
Spouse Name: James Boatright
Spouse Birth Year: 1745
Marriage
Year: 1768
Also, no parents are listed for Mary.So it appears that Nancy Ann's mother may be Elizabeth Kidd.
--------------------------------------------------------
No children are listed for Nancy Ann Boatwright's first marriage to Stegar, though there may have been.With Joshua Rucker, eight children are listed, along with your James Robert Rucker, including Alexander Higginbotham Rucker,(Birth 20 Feb 1824 in Adair, Kentucky, Death 18 Oct 1905 in Illinois), Elizabeth (born 1818 to ?), Mary Jane(Birth 18 Jun 1828 in Adair, Kentucky, Death 15 Apr 1914 in Christian, Illinois), and Milton.
