I had some trouble following the sequence above. In fact, I doubt that it entirely correct.

William Slaughter married Catherine Zimmerman and moved to Jefferson County, Kentucky. [Green's History of Culpeper County is the source for this.] According to the story above, Frances Ellen Slaughter was born in Culpeper County, Virginia, which seems strange since Frances is a granddaughter of William Slaughter and Catherine Zimmerman.

Catherine Zimmerman was the daughter of Christopher Zimmerman and his wife Anne Elizabeth Albrecht. Christopher came in 1717. Catherine was probably the youngest daughter and she perhaps was born in the 1740s. She might very well have a son Gabriel who married in 1797.

An explanation of how Frances Ellen Slaughter came to be born Culpeper County is needed.

I believe Gabriel Slaughter, Thomas, William , John and Smith are brothers.
I have Gabriel b c 1725 in VA. d c 1810
Something is wrong as I have him married to Frances Hord,d of James Hord and Mary Susan Mollie Miller. Their child Frances Ellen Slaughter was born 10 Mar. 1810 in Culpeper. The birth dates and Gabriel Slaughter and Frances Hord as parents are on Frances Ellen Slaughter's death record.
Frances was quite old(34) when she was married. The marriage date of 1797 in Caroline County would make Gabriel way up in years with a c birth 1725.
Any help would be appreciated.
James Hord names Frances in his will. A law suit names Frances and marrying a ? Slaughter. This suit must have happen years after. James must have had some problems with Simon Miller and the suit went on for years.
Frances Ellen Slaughter did receive some money before she was 16 as she married a Claudsley W Smith and was promptly relieved of the sum.
