Agree with your comments on Rice-2051 (my direct line grandfather). Recommend disconnecting Rice-21046 as spouse of Rebecca Woolum until sources/facts are found to support the connection for the following reasons. Rice-21046 has a 1815 birth date on the grave stone photo on Findagrave and a birth location listed of Claiborne County, Tennessee. Census records indicate Rice-2051 was born in Virginia about 1795-1796. Rebecca Woolum was born in about 1806 making it unlikely she would marry someone born in 1815. In addition, the Stephen born in 1795 and Rebecca born in about 1806 had Nancy Isabelle in about 1823. The Stephen born in 1815 could not have been the father of Nancy Isabelle. In the 1880 census Stephen, 84 years old is living with Rebecky and both were recorded as being born in Virginia. The currently known details of the two men are different with the exception of being attached to the same spouse and the year 1887.
