Daughter of Abner and Rhoda BEDELL; named in Abner's will (1814 in Jones County, Georgia) as Nancy BEDELL. After Abner's death, Rhoda married 1816 in Jones County to William C. OSBORN. Rhoda's maiden name is reported to be Rhoda Clark SMITH. Abner also named a daughter Bessie SMITH in his LWT, who was to receive anything Abner had acquired from Mr. Charles SMITH. So either Charles was Rhoda's kinsman (father, brother) and daughter Bessie had married a SMITH (also presumably a relative), or Rhoda had a first marriage to Charles SMITH and Bessie was their daughter (so Abner's step-daughter).

Burial record in sexton's ledger book shows: Mrs. A. M. ALLEN died of old age (age and place of birth not reported) and was buried 29 NOV 1879 in Section 2, Lot 560, as a non-resident of Columbus, Georgia. The sexton was Abraham ODOM.
