Rebecca Hoggatt, parents unknown, was born in approximately 1832 in Indiana, probably in Dubois County. She married Thomas Caves Jr. on 22 Feb 1849 in Dubois Co., Indiana, USA. She and Thomas immediately started their family, and she gave birth to two daughters: Julia Ann Caves, born in March 1850, and Rosanah Caves, born in 1851.
Sadly, in 1851, her husband, Thomas Caves Jr., died at approximately the same time as his father, Thomas Caves Sr.. It appears that the young widow abandoned her children with their grandmother, Frances (Fanny) Davis Caves, where they remained on the family homestead until 1858 upon Fanny's death.
It also appears that Rebecca Cave remarried to Thomas Jefferson Waggoner on 18 May 1853 in Dubois County, Indiana. Jeff Waggoner already had been married and had lost his first wife. Rebecca appears to have died sometime between 1853 when they were married, and Waggoner's third marriage to Elizabeth Nance on 25 Apr 1858 in Martin County, IN.
Her gravesite is unknown, but is suspected to be in Martin County, IN.
