According to bio of Henry Holcombe in "Georgia Baptists: Historical and Biographical" 
on ancestry, "he baptized, among twenty-six professed believers, his wife, her only 
brother, and their mother." The following August [1786?] he baptized his father, who 
was then 61 (b 1725). The "only brother" would be Robert Tanner Jr. who went to La. 
The names of the children of Robert Tanner Jr (sister of Frances) may be a clue: 
Anne, Frances, Anne Grimball, Robert Lynn, Sarah Adeline, Peter, Esther Elvira, Jane 
Sophronia, Providence Tuzette, Henry, Martha Providence, Paul Jabez, Peter, 
Rosaline Harley, Mary Matilda. Robert Jr's wife was Providence Robert, dtr of Peter 
Robert and Anne Grimball. So from Robert's ancestry comes Jane, Harley??
findagrave says she was born in Beaufort, SC
