  • Notes: 

  • It's possible that Rachel Wedge is the daughter of Asel Wedge and Hannah White who was born 22 FEB 1778 in Kent, Connecticut. However DAR records state she was born 26 FEB 1778 in Warren, New York. More evidence is needed to determine if the DAR records are correct, or if Rachel Wedge is the daughter of Asel.
