In an e-mail, Gerald Tudor explained that there is no evidence that Elizabeth ever married. Her children, with the exception of Martha, took the last name of their respective father. Martha used the name Searcy when she married John Tudor. Gerald included the following information as additional proof. The Will of Elizabeth Searcy--In the name of God amen. I Elizabeth Searcy of Granville County in the State of North Carolina being sick and weak in body but of sound and disposing mind and memory thanks be given to almighty God for the same do by these presents constitute and appoint this to be my last will and Testament in manner following.

D. 1784. Elizabeth (her mark) Searcy. In the presence of John Tuder and Henry (his mark) Rardon. The research and compilation of Waunita Powell leads to a very logical conclusion to the mystery of Elizabeth's family. Waunita's text is scattered throughout the notes on Elizabeth's children and draws some interesting and reasonable facts. The following is from the research and compilation of Waunita Powell of Paris, Illinois, excerpts of which she has so freely provided are added here and elsewhere in the notes for Elizabeth, daughter of John and Phoebe, and her children. We are not certain of the year that Elizabeth actually died. There is no evidence in the above will that it was proven where written. Additionally, there is a second female in the 1810 census for John Tudor age above 45, which could very well be Elizabeth living with her only daughter, Martha, also age above 45, in Kentucky.

In Reminiscences and Memoirs of North Carolina, Watauga County on page 461 is the following story about the woman that later became the wife of Samuel. "On July 14, 1776, as three young ladies (two of them daughters of Colonel Calloway and one of them a daughter of Colonel Boone) were strolling in the woods, they were captured by the Indians. At the time Boone was off hunting, but when he returned, without any aid or waiting to collect a force, he followed the trail of the indians, and came in sight of them, and by his unerring rifle killed two, recovered the girls and returned to the fort in safety. One of these married Samuel Henderson, the brother of Judge Henderson and Pleasant Henderson.
