Seeking documentation of maiden name of Rachel, wife of Amon Pyburn.

GENEALOGICAL MATERIAL IN OREGON DONATION LAND CLAIMS VOLUME II, published by the Genealogical Forum of Portland Oregon, 1959. P. 113:
"No 4773 Pyburn (x) Amon, Polk Co; b 1802 Buncomb Co, N.C.; SC [settled claim] 15 Sept 1850; m Rachel 25 Dec 1823, Overton Co, Tenn. She d abt 1859 & he was d by Feb 1876 when Cert. was issued to heirs. Aff. Croghan Rhodes (knew them as h & w since 1842), Alexander Hodges, Robert W. Russel, Henry Helmick."

I obtained copies of this file from the National Archives which confirm the above abstracted details. BUT do not contain the maiden name of Rachel. I would greatly appreciate source of reports that Rachel was a Robbins. Please help.
