I'll just add a little to what Edna says. This has been a tough family to figure out. I suspect Rachel's husband may have been a Richard Kirkley, but have no reliable proof. The census records seem to suggest this, but a lack of solid record evidence frustrates this idea. Rachel stated she was born in Virginia in one of the census records, either 1850 or 1860, I forget which. I'm not sure about her husband's place of birth. There is not one clue about Rachel's maiden name that I am aware of. There was a Sarah Kirkley listed in the 1850 census, also born in Virginia, that I believe was the widow of a Thomas Kirkley. Were these two women sisters? I don't know, but have considered it a possibility.
