Rachel Atwood

Rachel Bachelor was born say 1633, daughter of WILLIAM BACHELOR and Rachel Bates. She married Philip Atwood as his 1st wife by 1653.

They had six children: Rachel, Mary, Philip, Abigail Mitchell, Elizabeth Covell, & Oliver.

She died at Malden on 7 Nov 1674.

(Two death dates for Rachel, wife of Philip Atwood, were sent in by the town of Malden for recording by Middlesex County, 5 Feb 1673[/4] & 7 Nov 1674. Philip's wife Rachel was clearly alive on 24 Oct 1674, when she acknowledged her joint deed with her husband of 1 Ocdt 1674, so only the latter of these latter of these two dates can be correct. The earlied daath date may pertain to their daughter Rachel.)

From Geni member J Sherman Jan 2016:

Hopefully this is helpful. The mother of Rachel Atwood, is actually Rachel Bates, not the alleged Jane Cowper (Cooper) etc.

The recent (2005) research showed that William Batchelor married Rachel Bates on Sept 19, 1625 in Biddenden (which is roughly 20 miles from her parents home area of Lydd. (TAG 80 (2005) 23).

The Jane who is married to a William Batchelor is most likely a different William. Batchelor was a common name.
