Monroe County Genealogical Society has indexed the court records and posted at their website. Chancery Index 1852-1859, Section A Box 70 appears to have a record for Rebecca C. Pate and Stephen F. Pate. Immediately after both names is the #26. You might try contacting them for more information.

I cannot locate Stephen in the 1860 census. Rebecca is with her parents as Rebecca Pease.

It appears Rebecca only had one child, Anna Marie Copeland, out of wedlock. I believe she may have fallen in love with a young soldier, who never returned (killed) from the war to marry her.

From Kerry Patrick Jan. 2016):
We exchanged messages several years ago on one of the message boards regarding Ann Copeland, daughter of an unknown Copeland and Rebecca, who had previously married a Pate. Another researcher has contacted me about Copeland in Monroe Co. and I have a lead for you to follow for Ann's father. Ancestry recently added Illinois Wills. If you search for Samuel Copeland in Monroe Co. IL, there is an estate file, and I think the final settlement for Samuel was dated about 1866 or 1868. It is a small file with no real genealogical information, but there is a receipt from the doctor stating something about medical attendance in the final days of his illness ( abt 1862). The dates seem to be what you are looking for?
