      I have absolutely no proof that these are the parents of Laurina/Lorina/Livina, but it would appear that she was from the Rockbridge area and this Rebecca fits as her mother. I just can't find them before 1850, unless Chris died and the girls are listed in the household of someone else.

      I do not believe the family in the following censuses is this one - This Rebecca was in Jackson co in 1850, so there must be two families with spouses with same names. IF this Rebecca truly was the person who married this Christopher.
