  • Notes 
    • The Paynes of Virginia (citation details below) calls her "Rebecca (Bowen?)", but also notes that "1761 Susannah Bowen died, leaving everything to Peter and Rebecca Jett", which certainly suggests that this Rebecca was a daughter of Stephen Bowen and his wife Susannah Richardson.

      William L. Deyo, writing many years later, confirms this, based on the subsequent discovery of a will book previously considered lost.
