1Kemper, Willis Miller, Fishback family in America, Genealogy of the descendants of John Fishback the emigrant, with historical sketch 1714-1914, New York: Thomas Madison Taylor 1914, pg 33, FHL Book 929.273 F527. "Hager's fourth child, Elizabeth, married either in Germany or in England, it is as yet uncertain which, John Jacob Rector. He was an important man in the colony, and was one of the elders of the congregation while the colony was at Germanna. He went to Germantown, but seems to have died soon after the colony went there, before 1729, for the Germantown land was set off to Elizabeth Rector, illegally of course. She had one son born at Maidstone in England and another born in this country. She seems to have soon married again, a man named Marr. Mrs. Marr made some kind of a compromise with her Rector children, for she transferred one hundred acres of the Germantown tract to her eldest Rector child, to whom it belonged under the law. Apparently Marr died comparatively soon, for the tradition is that in her later years Mrs. Marr married a prominent and wealthy citizen of Culpeper, Col. John Finlason, and that after the first Mrs. John Fishback died, she took her niece Elizabeth Fishback, the a baby (perhaps also the other daughter, Anna Catharine), and raised her. Quite possibly this had something to do with the early marriage of Elizabeth Fishback to John Peter Kemper, for the marriage took place when Elizabeth was 15 years 6 months and 24 days old; and also with the marriage of Anna Catharine Fishback to her cousin Mrs. Marr's son, John Rector." It is the opinion of T.Mason that Willis Kemper has made an error and confused this Elizabeth Haeger with Ann Elizabeth Fishback, the wife of Hans Jacob Rechter who died in 1729.
