Rebecca, who may have been daughter of John Palmiter, was born in 1674 and died in 1756.
Research Notes
It is uncertain whether this Rebecca was daughter of John Palmeter or that she married Jabez Tucker. No record of a Rebecca Palmeter with her birth and death has been found online. The marriage given by Torrey says Jabez married Rebecca Knight.[1]
In addition, the deed of gift dated 26 Dec 1716 from John Palmeter (s/o John Palmiter) to Jabez Tucker did not mention a relationship between them. And if the Find A Grave memorial of Jabez's daughter Elizabeth is correct, the surname of his wife Rebecca was Knight, not Palmeter.[2]
