Biography

Rhoda Abshire was said to have been married to Ezra Israel Justice. [1] In addition to the children listed above, they are listed on Familysearch.com as the parents of Rhoda Justice, who provides a possible lead to follow:

Rhoda Justice was born about 1793, and was living with a Mary Justice (ca. 1790), in Pike, KY in 1860. Living with them were Permilia Justice (KY, ca. 1832), Juda Justice (KY ca. 1842), and Alfred Justice (KY ca. 1853). [2] She married a William Pritchet in Pike County, KY in 1839). [3] If Rhoda and Mary Justice were daughters of Rhoda Abshire and Ezra Israel Justice, then Rhoda Abshire would have been born c. 1770, possibly in VA. On Familysearch.com, Rhoda Justice is listed as their daughter, but this Mary is not.
