Rebecca Puttee (About 1705 - After 1750)

Rebecca Puttee had to have been born before 1711, or so, because she was a mother by 1725. At least one researcher estimates her birth date as 1705.
She may have been the daughter of Peter Puttee and Rebecca Unknown. Peter's father was Francis Puttee who died in 1689 in Baltimore County, MD. Peter died in 1734 near N. Gunpowder R. in Baltimore County, MD. Peter's wife, Rebecca, died in 1743 in Baltimore County, MD.

The last birth date known for any of her children is 1750 so she must have died some time after that. At least one researcher puts her death date as 1785.

At some point she married Thomas Foy. This probably took place before 1725 in Baltimore, MD.

Children of Thomas Foy and Rebecca Puttee include:

1. John Foy, born Jan 18, 1725/26 in St. John's Parish, Baltimore, MD; died Abt. 1791 in Craven Co., NC.

(According to Julia Pollock Hariett, History and Genealogy of Jones County, NC, New Bern, NC, 1987 John died about 1781)
2. Thomas Foy, born Abt. 1729 in Baltimore Co., MD; died 1789 in Jones Co., NC.
3. James Foy, born Bet. 1732 & 37 in Baltimore Co, MD; died Nov 11, 1822 in Onslow Co., NC; married Elizabeth Ward 1771.
4. Jacob Foy, born Abt. 1733 in Baltimore Co., MD; died Feb 1786 in Jones Co., NC; married Elizabeth Simmons Abt. 1766 in Jones Co., NC.
