Rebecca Tayer

Notes:

Rebecca's maiden name is given several different spellings in the index (Sayer, Tazer); It would be better to view the original at Jamestown. I have roughly estimated her birth year.

I think she may be a descendant of Benjamin Tayer of Newport, particularly since she has a son named Benjamin.

Rebecca married William Battey, III 17 Mar 1778, Jamestown, Newport Co., RI. William (son of William Battey, Jr. and Phebe Remington) was born Abt 1748. [Group Sheet]
