I don't know if this will help but it's kind of interesting
. After Nathan Brake died Barsheba married James Van Pelt o
n 31 Jan. 1829 in Edgecombe Co. NC. He was a free mulatto
. She was dismissed by the falls of the Tar River Primitiv
e Baptist Church for marring him.
I'm trying to make a connection to the next Brake in my fam
ily line, Nathan and Barsheba could be them.(if they are th
en you helped me)
