Rachel James married Samuel McCallen on 30 May 1799 at Neshaminy Presbyterian Church in Hartsville, Bucks, Pa. per marriage information. In this union were born a son, William, and a daughter, Elizabeth.
Rachel was baptized at age 22 on 15 June 1800 at Neshaminy Presbyterian Church in Hartsville, Bucks, Pa. - Rachel's birthdate was given as 21 Sep 1777 on the baptismal certificate.
Their son, William, was born on 5 September 1799 in Northampton Township, Bucks, Pa. He was baptized on 29 June 1800 at Neshaminy Presbyterian Church of Warminster in Hartsville, Bucks, Pa.

She was buried at the 4th Presbyterian Burial Grounds (now defunct) and all the graves were apparently exhumed and relocated to Mount Moriah cemetery in Philadelphia.
Rachel's husband, Samuel, had become a widower upon her death in 1811 and he moved into the city of Philadelphia about 1826. Samuel had not remarried. His occupation was Stone Mason. Samuel died at age of 78 on 26 July 1838 at his residence. No information regarding his burial but expect that he too was buried at the 4th Presbyterian Burial Grounds.
