You may want to add this excerpt from "A Walk in a Country Churchyard - Autumn 1880", by Luke Smith Mote

"Rachel Davis, second wife of Abiather Davis and eldest daughter of David Mote afore named, was buried here about the years 1829 or 30. She had lived apart (voluntarily) from her husband for many years, for which she lost her right in the church. She held the place of an Elder several years previous to the said separation. She died at her son John Jones (on Ludlow Creek) in indigent circumstances."

Note: Though Luke states here she is the eldest daughter, Margaret is actually the eldest.

Hope you find this information helpful.
