Rachel Head was born in what was New Garden Village, which New Garden Monthly Meeting sat in. It no longer exists. She married Dec 1730 in the New Garden Monthly Meeting.
She was the daughter of Thomas Head.
I was sorry to find out that her headstone is now gone. It was there in 1995.
Want to know what happens to some of our oldest cemeterys? I live near an old mining town named Florence, Arizona. The oldest burial that I can figure out was in 1855. This cemetery had a 1st cousin to Harry Truman in it. The cemetery still is owned by a mining company. In 1970 a photo was taken and thre were about 700 headdstones. Today 50 years later, there are a little more than one dozen. If families stop going and looking after the graves, the vandels will. I wonder how many of these stones are the back step of houses in the region. Please, try to remember to go to a cemetery once or twice a year.
So, even though there are hints on Rachel belonging to another man, I have to stick with the evidence that I obtained from the New Hope MM.
