Rebecca Rush [SEP] date of death
Rebecca Rush
Rebecca Rush (January 1, 1779 – 1850) was a writer in the early United States. She published her only known book, "Kelroy", in 1812 at the age of thirty-three. Unfortunately, the book was not much noticed because it appeared on the eve of the War of 1812, which overshadowed its publication.
Very little is known about Rebecca Rush. The "Critical Dictionary of English Literature and British and American Authors" (1897) has the following entry about her:
a horticulturist of Pomona, California and Rebecca Holship née Furguson. Seven years after Caystile's death, she married 2 Sep 1890 Reginaldo Francisco del Valle, a Democratic candidate for lieutenant-governor of California. Their daughter Lucretia Louise del Valle married Henry Francis Grady, Ambassador to Greece, India, and Iran.
