In following research on John Beasley, I discovered the Alpheus Harlan book referenced below. Rebecca is named in the will as one of four minor children. However, in the list of issue, she is the youngest No. 713 with the following: "Rebecca Harlan b. 8, 3, 1801; d. Laurens District, S.C.; m. John Beasley. No further record."[1]
Turning to the entry for her brother Isaiah (pp 231-2) there is no entry for 713.
