To me this is a fascinating document. There is a lot of information here for various families: Benton, Leach, Bryant, Gentry, Miller, Rogers, Smith, Brown, Fraught, and Taylor.
One note is that Rebecca Leach is noted as the daughter of Jonathan & Nancy Rogers. All Leach researchers show Rebecca's surname as Raley and that Rebecca Raley married James S. Leach when she was 20 years old (1823). I suppose she could have previously been married to a Rogers but when I look at the Jonathan Rogers Findagrave index there is no indication he had a daughter named Rebecca (other children are named). So that is a bit of a mystery. Could easily be an error by the newspaper.
