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.

The twelve hundred and eighty-seventh note in a series on the Germanna Colonies
The eldest son of Christopher Zimmerman, the immigrant, was John who was born in 1711. In Virginia he married Ursula Blankenbaker, the sister of Zacharias Blankenbaker who was also born in Germany. Both John and Zacharias lived until Madison County was formed so they lived in Germany, Essex County, Spotsylvania County, Orange County, Culpeper County, and Madison County yet they moved only twice (John may have moved three times).
John died in 1796, the father of seven children. In giving the children here, I am following Margaret James Squires who was a reputable researcher and who spent some time on this family. The eldest child of John was John, Jr. who was born about 1737. The second child was Dorothy, b. ca 1742, who married Jacob Tanner. The third child, Elizabeth, has a similar estimate for her birth year and she married Joseph Holtzclaw after his first wife, a Thomas, died. About 1746, Christopher was born and he married Mary Tanner. The next child was Mary, born ca 1752 and she never married. Another girl, Margaret, has an uncertain marriage. She was born about 1755. Rosanna, born ca 1757, married Moses Samuel.
Dorothy Zimmerman had a hard life in that she lost her husband, Jacob, when she was about forty years old with six youngsters in the home. I believe she was also physically handicapped. Jacob had been drafted in 1781 and died while he was in the army, just after the victory at Yorktown. In 1794, Dorothy filed a petition with the House of Delegates of Virginia asking for a pension which was granted.
Two of the Zimmerman children, a brother and a sister, married two Tanner children, a sister and a brother, respectively. The Tanner and the Zimmerman families lived not far from each other, a couple of miles north of the German Lutheran Church.
Perhaps John Zimmerman outlived Ursula, his wife, by about ten years for the last year she appears at the church is 1787.
Rosina (Zimmerman) Samuel appears at church with the Samuel surname name starting in 1789 and extending through 1796. She appeared as Rosina Zimmerman in 1775. A Rosina Zimmerman appeared as late as 1787 which is probably her. In the civil records, women who had the name Rosina at church usually were called Rosanna.
