Notes

"At a Court held for Madison County the 22nd day of September, 1836, the last will and testament fo Angus Rucker was produced into Court and proved by the oaths of John Harrison, Jr. and Linn Banks, witnesses thereto and ordered to be recorded." p. 277.

"Sadie Rucker Woods book on the "Rucker Genealogy" page 297 under the section on Ann Rucker daugh. of Peter she states : Angus Rucker, marr. Mary Susanna Graves (d/o Thomas Graves and wife Sarah Delaney, daughter of John Delaney and wife Frances Stanton) on Aug. 24, 1806, Madison Co., Va. (Thomas Graves was son of John Graves and wife Susanna)

There is another Angus in the book married to a Jane but he is son of Ephraim Rucker and this is NOT this one. She is stating that those names on marriage bonds have NOT been located in this work (or her book) she is saying she hasn't identified the ANGUS m. to Graves."

Total attending including supporters were 24 people.

Several participated in the ceremony by presenting their research about Captain Rucker. The SAR grave marker and an SAR Chapter wreath were unveiled. A 13 Star American flag was presented by SAR Chapter President Mike Lyman to Charlotte Beaulieu, a direct descendant of Captain Angus Rucker.
