To my knowledge there is no evidence at all that links Rachel Elswick, whose maiden name is unknown, to John Francis Gower and Anna Hobbs Gower as parents. See the letter from the Rev Albert Elswick quoted in the sources in her husband John Elswick’s bio about John Elswick and wife Rachel: “They appear out of nowhere, receiving a 180 acre land grant near Sharpsburg, MD. in 1742.”

At the moment John Elswick and Rachel appear to be a brick wall.
