bullet  Notes:

Rachel is widow of Francis Langkake. Francis Langkake's will was written on Mar 2 1754 and it was probated in Somerset County on Jan 23 1759. Rachel Hitch, alias Lank, was Administratrix (SoW-30:637). By the time the Account was completed of Mr. Langkake's estate on Aug 25 1761, wife Rachel had remarried as she as referred to as Rachel Hitch "alias Lank". Son/grandson Francis Langkake was the other administrator (SoAA-47:142). By eliminating all other Hitches who may have been candidates to marry with Rachel Langkake/Lank, we arrive at Elgate as the best possibility. Elgate mentions his wife Rachel in his will of 1772/1773. Therefore, it is believed that Elgate Hitch married the widow of Francis Langkake sometime between Jan 1759 and Aug 1761.
