      1 April 1853 Robert S. Rea and wife Ann Margeret sold to James E. Fegan, a
      tract of 103 acres in Fannet Township that had been conveyed to Eleanor Rea,
      Widow, by John A. Rea and Robert S. Rea, Administrators of the Estate of Robert
      Rea, deceased, by reference of Deed bearing date 7 April 1849. The said Eleanor
      Rea, Widow, is since dead and  in her lifetime made verbl contract with Robert S.
      Rea & Joseph Rea for the sale of said tract of land and said Joseph Rea transferred
      to said Robert S. Rea.
      This deed shows Eleanor was living 1 April 1849. She was presumably deceased by
      1 June 1849 as she was not found in the either the 1850 census nor mortality
      schedule.
