The even spacing of Rucker's (1938) birthyears suggests they're estimates, and experience has shown that she was guessing wildly at the dates she gives. Therefore, lacking better estimates, I have used the children's marriage year as an estimation of their birthyear (because the average male marries at age 23 and the average female at age 19).

p. 38 5 ELIZABETH HOYL, b. 1737, m. 1759, George Hovis, Sr., pioneer of the Hovis family. Their farm was near the old Peiter Heyl place, and was of considerable extent, reaching a good distance up both river and creek. George Hovis conveyed a part of this large farm to his son, Frederick Hovis, who lived there many years, until he sold it and moved to Lincoln County, Tennessee.
Her children:

Frederick Hovis... 35 ... b 1760.

George Hovis Jr... 36 ... b 1762.

Margaret Hovis.... 37 ... b Aug. 18, 1763.

Susannah Hovis.... 38 ... b 1766.

John Hovis........ 39 ... b 1768.

Andrew Hovis...... 40 ... b 1770.

Peter Hovis....... 41 ... b 1772.

Michael Hovis..... 42 ... b 1774.

Sarah Hovis....... 43 ... b 1776.

As a source, Rucker has been demonstrated over and over that she was guessing wildly at dates.
