      !There is little information on Rebecca, but she is reported to be a
      full-blooded Cherokee. This has not been verified.

      !In 1835, while traveling to Niles, Berrien Co., Michigan, Rebecca died of
      cholera in Indianapolis, IN. She was traveling with the families of her
      daughters Phoebe, wife of Wesley Pinnell, and Elizabeth, wife of Francis
      Pinnell and their children. Five members of the family died including Rebecca,
      three Pinnell children and Wesley Pinnell, husband of Phoebe.

      In a conversation with Bill Settle Reese on 1/7/95, he informed me that his
      grandmother told him back in the 1930's that the maiden name of Rebecca was
      Runnells. In researching information on Faquier Co. where Isaac Linegar lived
      I did find a Runnells family.

      1790 Virginia census reveals a John and James Runnells as heads of households.

      This surname may also have been spelled as "Runols" as Nancy Ann Linegar Bays
      named her first son "Isaac Runols". Another variation is "Runolds".
