Notes: Minnie Kendall Lowther in History of Ritchie County has sister Orpha married to a Hill of Cla y Co., Rhoda to a Board of Roane Co. , Susan to a Jacob Smith of Roane Co., and Zilpah to Jam es Riddle of Gilmer Co. She does not list Agnes. It appears that she was incorrect, and th e marriages probably look like this:
MKL Probable
Rebecca Mrs. Cornelius Cain
Sarah =Jacob C. Smith
Jacob C. and Sarah were near neighbors of Hannah Drake Hill and her second husband John Riddl e, Jacob B. Smith, probably son of Jacob C., was administrator in 1858 of John Clinton Ridd le, and Orpha Smith was a witness. Minnie Kendall Lowther does not list a Sarah.
Rhoda Board =Mrs. John Boothe Lowe, Mrs. Reuben Wilson
Zilpah (Mrs. James Riddle of Gilmer Co.) =Mrs. William Keyser Board (lived Jackson/Wi rt/Roane Co. in what is now Reedy District, near John and Hannah Drake Riddle)
Agnes =Mrs. James Riddle
Orpha (Mrs. Hill) =
Susan (Mrs. Jacob Smith of Roane Co.) =Mrs. Henry Hill
In 1860, Martha Camp, daughter of George Henry Camp was living with Henry and Susan Hill. Ge orge's mother was Rachel Drake, daughter of Rev. John Drake. Rev. Drake was the brother of H annah Drake Smith. So if Susan is the daughter of Arraon and Hannah Drake Smith, she and Geo rge Camp were first cousins.
