She was my 5th Great Grandmother.

Hi, I just wanted to explain my edit for Rachel's birth year. The International Marriage Record for Evan and Rachel state that both of their birth years were about 1757. Until now, that was the only source that had any mention of her birth year, which I thought was an estimate.
But FINALLY, searching through the U.S., Quaker Meeting Records, 1681-1935 (Pennsylvania), I found a record dated 25 October 1757, stating that Robert Stewart along with his wife and six children, John, Mary, Isaac, Catherine, Rachel, & Gravenor (maybe Grovenor) were to be joined to the the Friends of Cane Creek.
I'd be happy to email a copy of the record or if you're on Ancestry.com, I've added the link at the bottom of this email (it's really long, but you can copy & paste it in your browser).
You need to go back a couple of pages to see the date of the meeting minutes. But it's finally proof that Rachel was born prior to 25 October 1757 (still search for an actual birth record)...
Thanks,
Anita (I guess we're cousins)

Suggested edit: Most likely buried in Old Harris Cemetery, which is located on Cave Road off of Indian Ridge Road in the Indian Ridge Community on former Evan Harris farm currently owned by Harold Finley previously owned by the Jacob Dixon family.
