• Stokes County Court 30 March 1792: whereas John Deatherage is charged by Rachel Mabe a single woman that he had carnal knowledge of her body and that she, the said Rachel Mabe is now with child by him the said John Deatherage, which child when born will be a bastard. Then in March 1806 an appearance was issued for Rachel Deatherage to produce in Stokes County Court Nancy and David Deatherage "orphans of John Deatherage, Dec." and Molly and William Deatherage "Bastards of said Rachel Deatherage" and to answer the charge of improper care. Also, Stokes County in 1806 Lee and Nancy Mayob (Mabe) orphans in suffering condition born of the body of Rachel Deatherage were given to Edwin Hustman as they had not received proper guidance and instructions. In an 1809 Stokes County deed, heirs of John Mabe sold land to Philip Mabe. Rachel who married a Mr. Deatherage was an heir of John Mabe in that deed. Sources
