John Rutledge and Elizabeth Grimke Rutledge, of Charleston, SC, had ten children.Martha (1764 - 1806)Sarah (1765 - 1770)John (1766 - 1819)Edward (1767 - 1811)Frederick (1768 - 1821)Charles (1773 - 1821)Thomas (1774 - ? died in infancy)William (1775 - 1822)Elizabeth (1776 - 1842)States Whitcomb (1783 - 1829)The genealogical records for some of the children are inconsistent. Date of death for Sarah and dates of birth and death for William are most in doubt; date of death for Thomas is not recorded, indicating he probably did not survive infancy. Martha's date of death is listed as 1816 by some sources; however, this appears to be the result of an error in a single record.
