      !"The Hosmer heritage : ancestors and descendants of the emigrant
      Thomas Hosmer (1603-1687), by Ronald Roberts.

      !This source gives Rachel's birthdate as 1670.
      !Gives her husband as Thomas Morgan.

      !Court records dated Jan. 18, 1737/38 indicated that Isaac Goodwin
      [Rachel's son-in-law] and Stephen Hosmer [husband of Rachel's
      grand-daughter, Deliverance Graves] were the administrators of Rachel
      Morgan's estate. This proves that Rachel Morgan died prior to Jan. 18,
      1737/38.
