  • Notes: 

  • Rachel Stoddard is said to be the daughter of Elijah Stoddard and Abigail Trask. However, her birthdate precedes the marriage of her alleged parents by at least a couple of months and possibly as much as a year. Her birth record does give the names of her parents as Elijah and Abigail Stoddard, but her mother's maiden name is not given. More research is needed to positively identify Rachel's parents.
