She was born REBECCA TEMPLE, and was a daughter of ROBERT TEMPLE, whose widow, ELIZABETH, had her estate probated in Bedford Co., TN, in the late 1830s. REBECCA first married JOHN CRUDUP in N.C., and they came to Wilson County, arriving on May 12, 1804, according to an entry in the Wilson County Court Minutes, [see Fischer & Burns, TENNESSEE TIDBITS, 1778-1914, Vol, II, p. 3] By CRUDUP, she had four sons: ROBERT, ELISHA BATTLE, BENNETT, and JOHN, JR. Her first husband, JOHN CRUDUP, died in 1810 in Wilson Co. And some time afterwards she married a MR. MARTIN and is said to have then moved to Bedford Co., where she supposedly had one son, QUINCY MARTIN. On May 26, 1842, REBECCA MARTIN made her power of attorney to her son, JOHN CRUDUP, “to receive her share of the estate of ROBERT TEMPLE.” [Wilson Co., Probate of Deeds, 1840-1843, p. 248] ROBERT TEMPL
