I will have more to post on this when I dig out all my notes.
Caroline was a midwife.
So was Rachel.
They rode a horse with a pine knott for a light and delivered babies all over the county.
John and Caroline are both buried at Mill Creek Baptist Church Cemetery with many other family members.
Their daughter Nancy Ann and her husband Archibald Gaydon are also buried there.
