- From FindaGrave:
Born Rebecca Young, she first married Dr Joseph Strong in 1796 and then married Peter Gardiner after her first husband died in 1812.
Rebecca died in Piqua in 1862 but appears to be buried in Chillicothe according to a 1972 publication of Tombstone Inscriptions that lists a Mrs Gardiner buried, without a stone, in the lot of her son in law, John Wood.
Information taken from "American Ancestors and Cousins of the Princess of Wales" by Gary Boyd Roberts and William Addams Reitwiesner, 1984.
Rebecca's children by her first marriage were Lucy, Joseph, Peter, Eleanor, William, Rebecca and Lavinia. By her second marriage she had at least one son, Richard J Gardiner.
Rebecca's daughter Eleanor married John Wood. Eleanor outlived both her husband John and her mother Rebecca. Eleanor Wood died in New York in 1863 and is most likely buried there.
