Alice died after 1783 when Israel's will was probated. It is believed that she moved to Marion County, South Carolina with daughter Keziah and son-in-law Roger Roberts. Other sisters may have moved to the area and integrated into the community. More research is needed. SFG

Delilah is also listed as a child of Philemon's however, her birthdate doesn't fit the timeline. Perhaps she married one of her stepfather's relatives.
