What is your documentation that Peter Rucker, Immigrant was married to Elizabeth Fielding?  The Rucker Family Society's official position is that Elizabeth's maiden name is not known.  If you are copying her maiden name out of a book, that is insufficient to say for sure that Elizabeth's maiden name is Fielding.  You must have a marriage document or some other document to proove her name was Fielding.  We would all appreciate anyone who could proove a maiden name for Elizabeth.

My name is Erika and I am a decendant of the rucker's you are wondering about. I have found many documents that Elizabeth's last name is Feilding. I have also found her parents and grandparents. My email is available for you Alice to contact me if you would like.
