(Daughter) Relocation1785When she was about 5 years of age, Rachel moved west with her parents and siblings to Pennsylvania where two of the Heaton brothers, John and Henry, had already settled, establishing their new home in that part of Washington County, Pennsylvania, which would become Greene County in 1796.8 
Religion*She was a member of the Goshen Baptist Church, Whitely Township, Greene County, as was her future husband Thomas Colver.7 
Marriage*She married Thomas Colver, son of Ephraim Colver.2,4,3,9 
Name-SpellingsA variation of the spelling of the COLVER surname found in our research was CULVER.4 
Census 1810*1810Rachel (Heaton) Colver was likely enumerated on the 1810 census in the household of her husband Thomas Colver in Morgan, Greene County, Pennsylvania. Their household consisted of one male ages 26 thru 44, one female ages 26 thru 44, one male under age 10 and one female under age 10.10 
Census 1820*1820Rachel (Heaton) Colver was likely enumerated on the 1820 census in the household of her husband Thomas Colver, their surname transcribed as "Culver", in Morgan, Greene County, Pennsylvania. Their household consisted of one male over the age of 45, one female over the age of 45, one female age 26 thru 44, one male age 16 thru 25, and one female age 10 thru 15.

We have happily included the document's information and are hoping that, during our verification process, we will be able to confirm its validity. The online posting was a copy of a typed (typewriter) document which was not dated and is reported to be page one of a longer document. It appears to this researcher that the main author, J. W. Heaton, who stated he was born on June 19, 1832 in Henry County, Kentucky, one mile east of the village of Franklinton, wrote, possibly by hand, the information he titled "Family Genealogy" and which begins about one-third down from the top of page one -- and that someone else typed or retyped the information at a later date and added two additional paragraphs above the original author's work to include what was believed to be information about the original author's grandfather and great grandfather. We found the document online at https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/58145564/…. Hereinafter cited as Heaton Family Genealogy by J. W. Heaton.
