Rachel Johnson was born in 1741/42, in Virginia. Rachel married Daniel Ramey, born circa 1740, in Frederick county, Virginia. At the time of the American Revolutionary War, Daniel and Rachel were residing in Washington county, Virginia, established October 7, 1776. Daniel participated in the Battle of King's Mountain on October 7, 1780, south of the present-day town of Kings Mountain, North Carolina. Daniel is honored by the Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution for his military service and for his Civil Service, having been appointed as a Juror, and as Overseer of Roads. DAR records indicate that Daniel died before March 24, 1806, in Clark county, Kentucky, and that his wife's name was Rachel. Applications for membership in the Society of the DAR have been made by the descendants of their sons, John Ramey, who married Priscilla (?nee); James Ramey, who married Elizabeth Kindred; and Drusilla Ramey, who married John Kindred.

Daniel died in 1806, and Rachel Ramey is found on the United States Census of 1810, living in Clark county, Kentucky. [2]
