That is interesting cause I have a lettice Green who married Edward Smith.  
She would have then become Lettice Smith. She was also married to Burr  
Harrison.
 
This of course could be a totally different family, but I don't show any  
Rust in this line.

An  e-mail query several years ago requested info on the NUPHIS Family of 
Essex  Co.  In my research for a book on Northern Neck probate records  
(1800-1825), I have found evidence that I believe shows that "NUPHIS" is a  
spurious surname.  It should be RUST.  It looks like Lettice L.  SMITH, the wife 
of Francis SMITH was the wid. of Capt. Benj. RUST (d. Essex  Co. 1787).  I 
can find no evidence of a NUPHIS Family anywhere in  Virginia.
