F, b. before 1738

Rebecca (?) was born before 1738. She married John English before 1754. Rebecca (?) married John Patterson Jr, son of John Patterson and Mary (?), on 7 December 1758 at Barre, Worcester Co, Massachusetts.1
While the marriage intention of Rebecca English to John Patterson states she was of Greenwich in Worcester County, MA, (the name was written Inglish) there is little information on what her maiden name was.2 Rebecca (?) had filed their marriage intention on 22 October 1757 at Greenwich, Worcester Co, Massachusetts; John Patterson was of Rutland District, and Rebeckah Inglish was of Greenwich; published 7 Nov 1757, by Nathan Frisk, Town Clerk.3 All that is known at this time (December 1992) is an estate record for John English in 1754 named the administrator as Rebeckah English. A later record dated 3 May 1765 [Book 6, pp 769-770] reads "John Patterson, Gentleman and Rebeckah Patterson his wife both of Rutland District in the County of Worcester and John Rau [of Granville] are administrators on the estate of her late husband John English late of Palmer".
Hopefully, future research into the English family will reveal Rebecca's family name. Since she was of Greenwich before her remarriage to John Patterson, that may be a indication her family lived there in 1757 when the intention was filed.2
