FAMILY
Rachel's father is Gerald Davis. Gerald was in Bay City off and on from 1970 to 1974. He had abandoned Rachel
years before, and this time in her life he would betray her again, accepting a bribe from Steve Frame to
damage Rachel's case during her divorce hearing. Gerald was sent to prison for perjury, and that was the last heard from him.
Children
Rachel has five children.
Jamie Frame. Jamie and Rachel have had their ups and downs, but
were close when Jamie left town in 1993.
Amanda Cory. Amanda is close with
her mother, but every once in a while
they find themselves at odds over an
issue. In 1994 they had a major falling
out. Amanda felt betrayed because her
mother had started a relationship with
Carl Hutchins. Rachel was hurt because
she felt Amanda had betrayed her father's memory by believing the lies about him spread by Ian
Rain.
In 1997, Amanda turned against Rachel's husband, Carl. Resentful
of his presence in her father's house, she lashed out at him at every
opportunity despite Rachel's entreaties for peace and understanding.
Amanda masqueraded as Carl's secret lover, Hadley Prescott, and despite the pain
this caused Rachel, Amanda took a savage glee in her role.
Eventually remorse overcame her and she confessed all to Rachel.
Mother and daughter were on strained terms for the next few months. To make it up to her mother, Amanda investigated Scott Guthrie's role in Carl's death. She almost lost her life in the process, but it healed the rift between her and Rachel.
Matthew Cory. Matt and Rachel
enjoyed a close relationship for many years. Their first serious falling-out occurred in 1988,
when Matthew discovered the circumstances of his birth. Matthew
was very disillusioned with his mother, but eventually came around.
Matthew's hatred for Carl Hutchins, born out of the blue in 1996, took a terrible toll on his relationship with his mother. When she discovered he had been plotting with Carl's enemy Alexander Nikos, their closeness ended and they were estranged for several months. Matt botched his life by impregnating Lila Roberts and making her a fixture in the Cory mansion, but it also made Rachel rally to his side.
Elizabeth and Cory Hutchins. Rachel's twins were born in 1997.
Siblings
Rachel has a half-sister on her mother's side, Nancy McGowan.
Nancy resided in Bay City from 1974 to 1987. She returned twice: in
1989, for Mac Cory's funeral, and in 1993, for their mother Ada's
funeral. Nancy is much younger than Rachel (about 30), but the two
are close. Nancy is usually mentioned around Christmastime.
Other Relatives
Pammy Davis, half-sister. Sam Lucas, uncle.
Susannah Lucas, cousin. Alli Fowler,
granddaughter. Steven Frame, grandson.
