Notes for Albert R. Austin:
Albert died in Hopkinsville, Ky July 2,1932 at Western State Hospital. Copy of Death Certificate 15713 Vol 32 is in my death certificate file.
Oral history about a shooting by Albert that killed two men. My mother said that there was an argument at a church social and that Albert left to avoid trouble. On his way home two men stepped out and grabbed the rains to the horse, when they stopped the horse Albert pulled his pistol and shot them.
Interview with Elsie Clark daughter of Albert Austin, October 28,2000
When ask about the shooting by Albert Elsie gave the following account.
Albert was 23 years old when the incident occurred. Albert had arrived at church when his was told that the Barnard boys were looking for him. Elsie stated that they were a bunch of bullies and they were just out to pick a fight. Albert was offered the loan of a pistol but declined. When the Barnard boys arrived at the church one of them forced Albert with his horse to back up. Albert stated that he would back up a long has he could but when he got his back to the church wall he would stand and fight. The rider of the horse continued to back Albert up by forcing the horse to rear up and strike at Albert. With his back at the wall Albert grabbed a shotgun from someone standing nearby and shot the rider of the horse in the arm. The wound was not serious and the Barnard boy would have lived if the physician had been allowed to amputate his arm. The father of the boy would not allow the physician to amputate the arm stating he would not spend one dime to save the boy, but that he would spend all that he had to put Albert in the penitentiary. Elsie stated that Albert was found not guilty and that he never talked about the incident. There were times that Albert could not sleep and would walk around the yard to try to get some peace of mind. Elsie said her mother and some one who witnessed the incident told her the story of the shooting.
Elsie also told the story of how Albert lifted a barrel of flour and put it on his shoulder and walked all the way home to win the barrel of flour as part of the bet.
Hartford Weekly Herald Wednesday December 12, 1894
A writ was issued last Friday for the arrest of Albert Austin charging him with malicious wounding, and he was brought to town and gave bail in the sum of $200, pending his examining trial, which comes off next Friday. It will be remembered that several weeks ago Albert Austin and A. L. Barnard became involved in a difficulty near Sanderfur's Crossing, which resulted in young Barnard being shot in the shoulder. It was thought at the time that Barnard was getting along all right. but since then he has continued to grow worse and his death is now hourly expected. The late grand jury failed to indict Albert Austin, they seeming to think there was not sufficient evidence. The seriousness of Barnard's wound and his proximity to death caused the arrest of Albert Austin Friday. The trouble at the Crossing was a most deplorable occurrence and has cast a cloud over the neighborhood.
The Hartford Republican Friday December 14, 1894
A writ was issued last Friday for the arrest of Albert Austin, who shot and it is thought fatally wounded Bertie Barnard about October 28. Sheriff Stevens and Mr. L. B. Stevens arrested Austin on last Saturday and brought him before Judge Morton. The examining trail was set for today and having executed bond in the sum of $200 Austin was released.
The Hartford Republican Friday December 21, 1894
The examining trail of Albert Austin for shooting Bertie Barnard was set for Wednesday last, but was continued until Wednesday, January 2 on account of absent witnesses. Barnard continues to grow worse and is not expected to live.
As Charles Barnard, Jr. was returning from Beaver Dam one night last week, where he had been for a physician to visit his brother, Bertie Barnard, recently shot by Albert Austin, his horse fell with him from which the boy received very serious injuries. His left elbow was dislocated and he was otherwise bruised up.
Hartford Weekly Herald Wednesday December 26, 1894
Mr. A. L. Barnard, who was shot and wounded by Albert Austin several weeks ago, an account of which appeared in The Herald, died at his home near Beaver Dam last Monday morning at 1 o'clock. It is one of the most deplorable affairs that has occurred in Ohio County for many years. Both young men have excellent family connections and this tragic ending of what was thought at the time to be rather harmless quarrel, is a sincere regret to the whole community.
Hartford Weekly Herald March 13, 1895
Albert Austin was found guilty of assault and battery and fined $10.00

I am also searching for information on the Nelson and related families. Rev. Joshua Palmer Nelson is my great grandfather. I
have much of the same information you listed in your Ohio Co.query. However I have Joshua Palmer Md 1st a Martina
Bellows, they had 1 son James H.W. Nelson born 1858 that died in 1860 of scarlet fever after he married Sarah Jane Edge.
Would be interested in comparing notes. 1st children of Joshua P. & Sarah J. Nelson were twins,Jane Elizabeth and Delphia
Ann. My Grandparents are J. Elizabeth Nelson (Betty) and Felix Montgomery Evans. Joseph Harrison Nelson (Uncle Joe) you
wrote of, lived in Hartford near the High School with daughter Ada when I was a teenager, I remember them well.

Notes for Lucy (Fellie) Pa
Willis:
I am continuing to research the Nelson Family. Would you have any
information on Lucy Ophelia Patton, wife of Robert Levi Nelson? She was sometime called
Lucy, or Fellie. When Robert Levi died in Evansville, on 28 Oct. 1926 she was
not listed as a survivor. I would like to know her death date, and where she
is buried. Obituary states Robert was brought back to Barnett's Creek Cem in
Ohio Co. However neither Robert Levi or wife Lucy have a marker listed
in the Barnett Creek Cemetery. Maybe they are in unmarked graves. Ideller A. Nelson dau of Robert
and Lucy is buried there. I have Lucy's parents as Thornton & Rebecca Patton
(listed in 1860 Ohio Co. Census.)
Do you have any information on James Arthur Nelson son of Robert & Lucy? He
was living in Evansville, when father, Robert Levi died in 1926.

To: Willis:
I am continuing to research the Nelson Family. Would you have any information
on Lucy Ophelia Patton, wife of Robert Levi Nelson? She was sometime called
Lucy, or Fellie. When Robert Levi died in Evansville, on 28 Oct. 1926, she was
not listed as a survivor. I would like to know her death date, and where she
is buried. Obituary states Robert was brought back to Barnett's Creek Cem in
Ohio Co. However neither Robert Levi or wife Lucy have a marker listed in the
Barnett Creek Cemetery. Maybe they are in unmarked graves. Ideller A. Nelson dau of Robert
and Lucy is buried there. I have Lucy's parents as Thornton & Rebecca
Patton (listed in 1860 Ohio Co. Census.)
Do you have any information on James Arthur Nelson son of Robert &
Lucy? He was living in Evansville, when father, Robert Levi died in 1926.
Hope you can help me to fill in some of the blanks. Thanks so much. Norma Evans Williams

Notes for Henrietta Taylor:
A Sketch of the History of the
TAYLOR FAMILY
written by: H. D. Taylor
and read by:
Dr. Pendleton at the Taylor re-union
at Beaver Dam, Ky., Sept 9, 1875
The object of this meeting may be explained by stating the fact that old Harrison Taylor, with eight
sons and four daughters, with their wives and husbands, emigrated to this country in the latter part of
the last and beginning of the present century; he, with his sons and daughters and their wives and
husbands, have been swept by time to the spirit land; the children of those sons and daughters have
grown to hoary age, mostly ranging from seventy odd to ninety odd years, and another circle of
years will scarce leave one of this third generation. In the meantime the connection by intermarriages
have become so enlarged that they are not half known to each other. It was therefore, thought
proper that they should meet and mingle together in this grant reunion; not for my selfish, clannish, or
political purpose, but to talk over and recount the virtues of their good old sires and grandsires,
who, thought unheralded by fame, filled all the duties of private citizens with more true usefulness,
more virtue and honest integrity than the whole host of political humbugs and office hunters.
The most that is known of old Harrison Taylor is, that though unknown to fame, yet just such a
community of men would render any country famous- honest, industrious benevolent, mild and
reticent; untainted by avarice and ambition, he glided along in the quiet undercurrent of life from
whence the purest virtues flow.
He was born in the central part of Virginia; his parents were of Welsh and English origin, and
derived the name of Harrison from an intermarriage of his ancestors with the Harrison family of
Virginia. His father died without a will, and, under the feudal laws of the age, the oldest son took the
property, which was said to be large, and left Harrison shareless, who, instead of lying round a
lackey and pensioner on his brother, boldly struck out for the frontier, and located at Winchester,
then but a frontier village, where he took up[ the trade of house carpenter. Here it was that he
evinced the only known instance of ill temper and ungovernable rage. A British recruiting officer
located at that place, in the recruiting service, took a fancy to him and tried to induce him to enlist as
a soldier, but in vain. It was this officer's practice to gather a crowd about the tavern of nights and
drink and carouse until some one became so drunk and insensible that he either took the bounty, or
had it slipped into his pocket, and was strictly temperate, he never could be caught in this way; but
one night after a hard day's labor, he had taken his seat in a quiet retired corner and fell asleep. The
officer observing this, slipped the bounty into his pocket and awaited until his supposed victim
awoke, and then blandly addressing him remarked that it was time that they should go home to the
barracks. Taylor looked at him with astonishment, and asked what he meant; the officer, who had
formed an incorrect idea of his man, with a haughty air, informed him that having taken the bounty
he was now a soldier of King George, and the barracks were now his proper home. Taylor denied
ever taking the bounty, when the officer, in like haughty tone, asked him how he could deny it when
he had King George's coin in his pocket. At the end word "pocket" the youth suddenly ran his hand
into his pocket, grasped the coin and threw it with his utmost strength at the head of the officer, and
flew at him with all the venom of an enraged tiger, but was caught and held by his friends whilst the
King's representative beat a hasty retreat and gave his recruit a wide berth afterwards.
It was not long until he married Miss Jane Curlet and settled far back in the woods, where, with a
single horse, he commenced clearing and cultivating the forest. This horse had to be belled and
turned to the range at night and hunted up in the morning. Taylor, like all frontiermen, carried his gun
when he went to the woods, and one morning shot a deer just as he came up with his horse. He had
just commenced reloading as he hears a turkey gobble, and then another and another, until they had
nearly formed a ring around him. He at once comprehended his danger, turned his horse's head
towards home, struck it a blow and then made for home with his utmost speed, and had barely
arrived there when a messenger announced an Indian raid upon an adjoining settlement. The horse,
in passing through the gobbling ring, had been greatly alarmed by the redskins, and made his way
home, where he stood ready to bear the young wife and husband to the nearest fort.
As the country improved he built a mill on a stream in Frederick County, by which the main road
passed leading from the east across the Alleghany Mountains to the then great west, where he
raised a large family; bore the reputation of peaceable quiet citizen, and, what is most remarkable,
had the reputation of an "honest miller", which the following story as related by one of his sons will
show. His son, Harrison, before he had even arrived to full manhood, had "Kentucky on the brain",
and solitary and alone set out for that Eldorado. On the summit of the Alleghany Mountain he
stopped for the night at a wayside inn, crowded with travelers. A youth and a stranger, he sat
almost unobserved in a corner, until the landlord saw him, and book-registers not being in use, this
landlord usually kept his register in his head, and blandly inquired of his young guest his name,
residence and destination, and being told, exclaimed, "What, a son of honset old Taylor that kept
the mail on the road? Why, I was a wagoner for years on that road, and we wagoners would drive
for miles to get feed from him rather than buy elsewhere, for we were always sure of honest
measure and fair prices - in fact, he used to go by the name of "Honest old Taylor at the Mill",
Right-minded persons may well imagine the feelings of the young wayfarer at this encomium on his
meek and modest old sire.
This old sire's wife and partner through life was as unlike him, except in honest integrity and
unbounded benevolence, as it was possible for two minds to be, yet this disimilarity seemed to
strengthen the bonds of mutual affection, and rendered their love and esteem ever-lasting and
sincere. Demonstrative, possessed of powerful will, strong sense, abounding in wit and anecdote,
and almost infallible in memory, she was ever remarkable for her great social quallities. Her mother
had lived to the extraordinary age of ninety odd years, and the tenacious memories of these two
women is a remarkable illustration of how the unwritten history of a nation can be preserved from
generation to geneation, for there are some still living who, in their childhood, used to hear old Mrs.
Taylor relate incidents of English history, as far back as the days of Cromwell, which were
afterwardds corroborated in reading the writeen hsitory of that country, Yet that was all traditional
lore. But her kind-hearted benevolence was the leading feature of her character; and that it was not
always bestowed in vain, the following story will illustrate:
At their mill daily assembled men and boys from far and near, awaiting their turns. It was her sustom
to daily march down the hill to the mill, with loaf and knife in hand and cut and distribute bread to
each of the hungry urchins, Among these was a poor, ragged orphan boy, who never escaped her
eye, and was frequently taken to the house and fed to his heart's content, and many a garment
beloning to her boys went to clothe his almost naked body. Stackhouse was his name, but the
community would not allow him the whole of the thing inherited from his parents, and called him
"Stack" for short. He grew up under a sense of oppression and wrong, and it was antural that he
should wish to retaliate his wrongs upon society. Shrewd, daring and active, he was soon sleected
by old hardened villains, and became an expert accomplice in horse stealing, and from his
knowledge of the country, could skulk and hide in the spurs of North Indian Mountain and steal any
horse he wished, and transfer him to a regular band of thieves that was supposed to extend to the
South Carolina and Georgia. The people of Frederick and Governor ordered military atuhorities to
call out a sufficient force to scour the country and take Stack and his accomplices, dead or alive.
Richard and Thomas Taylor were among those detailed for that purpose. They took their range for
exploration, and seperated to meet at a designated point. Thomas had not gone far before he
discovered smoke, and approaching it cautiously saw Stack busily engaged drying or jerking the
choice parts of a mutton he had stolen the night before. At this critical moment Thomas tread upon a
stick, which broke and gave the alarm; a race ensued in which little was lost or gained. It was rather
a far fire with certain aim, and to fire without effect was placing himself at the mercy of his
adversary, for guns in those days would not fire a second time without reloading. Stack, however
was approaching a precipitous hill-side, which, if once gained, would hide him from sight, Thomas
raised his gun while running, determined to fire at the first open range, but was again so unfortunate
as to get get his foot entangled in a vine so as to stumble and fall. On raising up his intended victim
had entirely disappeared, and notwithstanding the most diligent search, no traces of him could be
found. He was banished for a time from his old haunts, but would frequently return, until finally
caught tried and convicted. While in prison Thomas visited him, and on alluding their race, inquired
how he had made his escape. "I was," said he, "in a few feet of the entrance of my den when you
fell, and immediately dodged into it. Its entrance was so concealed that no mortal, perhaps, but
myself has ever discovered it. Several times when you were hunting round you were in range of my
rifle. It was once aimed at you and my fnger on the trigger, but I thought of your mother and
dropped it from my grasp. Ah, had I been raised by such a mother I would never have been the
wretched outcast that I am." And tears treacled down the bronze cheeks of the poor, degraded
outcast.
Old Mrs. Taylor, believing in that text which says that "Man shall not live by bread alone," did not
confine her benevolence to the hungry mill boys, but was ever ready to relieve sick and suffering, no
matter what their condition in life. Poor, dying mother would often bequeath their children to her
care, and in this way her house became almost an orphan asylum during the ravages of the
revolutionary war. It is said that at times she would have as high as thrity odd children dependednt
on her for food and raiment. She, too, was the principal surgeon and physician of the then
backwoods settlement. With her lancet ready in her pocket she was always ready to replace
dislocated limbs, set broken bones, lance or bleed as required, with the steady never of a hospital
surgeon, although the wail of a feeble infant, or any tale of suffering or sorrow would at all times
bring tears to her eyes.
By the most untiring care and industry these old people acquired property and raised a family of
eight sons and four daughters. Several of these sons had visited Kentucky, and from their
representations of the country the old folks were induced to seel out and remove to Ohio County,
where all of the old folks bought the farm now occupied by Mr. Hamilton Barnes, where they
resided until too old and feeble to keep house, after which they removed to their son Thomas's
where they lived the remainder of thier days, and were both burried side by side in the family
graveyard.
He was born on the 11th of August, 1735, and died 22nd November, 1811, in the 77th year of his
age. She on the 5th of September, 1742, and died the 5th of August, 1812, in the 70th year of her
age.
In selling his mill and farm the old man took a bountiful supply of such sotre goods as he thought
would be useful in the new settled country. These goods excited almost as great a curiosity as the
glass lockets worn by the two girls at the party, on the Pigeon Roose Fork of Muddy Creek, as
described in Ralph Ringwood's stories. The following story illustrates how they were appreciated by
the young hunters and belles of the day: At a social party at the house of the old folks one night a
pert, flippant young gentleman was seated nearest the candle by which a pair of bright polished
snuffers lay. On being requested to snuff the candle he picked it up, licked his thumb and finger
ready to pinch it off when he was told to use the snuffers there. Upon this he set down the candle,
picked up the snuffers, opened them, licked his finger and thumb again, pinched off the sjuff and
placed it in the snuffers, closed them and laid them on the table with the remark, "Ain't they nice and
handy?"
As long as health and strength permitted their house was the resort of the sick and afflicted who
needed aid, of the gay and witty who wished to measure lances with the unpolished, backwoods,
off-hand wit, humor and sarcasm of the old lady, even the most sober and sage-like were fond of
her society. The late eccentric James Axley, who preached her funeral, delighted in her company,
and was heard to say that she had more native good sense and natural eloquence than any woman
he ever knew.
We have given some of the details of the life of "honest old Taylor at the mill" and his good wife, and
none should wish to trace their origin to a higher soource, for an "honest man is the noblest work of
God", and we will try and give a brief sketch of thier sons and daughters. Their oldest daughter,
Elizabeth, was married and afterward died in Virginia. Little is known of her children; one, Peggy
Pue, accompanied her grandparents to Kentucky and was married to a Mr. Keel and died without
children. Richard, the oldest son, was twice married. By his first wife he had Harrison, thomas, and,
as well as I now recollect, five daughters. Peggy married the Rev. John James. Sally married Phillip
Fulkerson, and the other two, whose names are not recollect married the one a Leach and the other
a Tarleton. By his second wife he had Richard, John, Blackstone and Mason, and Susan who
married Richard Stevens; Henrietta, who married Daniel Stevens, and Clarissa, who married
Ignatius Barrett. Richard Taylor lived to his 84th year, and through life was celebrated for his
industry, honest integrity and hospitality.
Thomas Taylor, the second son, united himself to the Methodist Church at the early age of twelve
years, and became a local preacher while quite young, , and remained one until the day of his death.
And although through life a large contributor in aid of the church, never asked or received a cent for
his own services. While in the vigor of manhood it was his constant practice to labor hard through
the week and ride miles away to preach in some place where there was no regular meeting. A file of
old almanacs, still in the family, in which he used to not his appointments, will show that he
frequently went to Hopkins, Muhlenberg, Grayson, Breckinridge, and even Hardin counties to
preach. Yet, to do this, he seldom left home until Saturday and returned during Monday, and then
by almost superhuman exertion made up the lost time through the week. If it were possible for
anyone to have too much physical, moral and intellectual industry, he was the man. His life was a
continued effort to improve soil, the morals and intelligence of the country. Of him it may be truly
said his heart was always right - his failings were but his virtues in excess. He had five sons ---
Nicholas, Wesley, Harrison D., Milton and Thomas, and a daughter, Frances, all of whom are dead
save Harrison and Milton.
Harrison, the thrid son, was said to have been a man born without fear, and I may add, died without
reproach. While quite a youth he visited Kentucky and was intrusted with the location of the lands in
this part of the country. He made several trips through the widerness alone, and was known to
remain at the surveyor's camps when older and more experinced men would fly to the settlements.
He was a plain, simple-hearted, honest man. His house for two years was the headquarters of land
claimants, who came to the country to look after their lands, and his thorough knowledge of the
country rendered his services highly important; and in this way he often spent days and weeks, not
only in entertaining them, but in showing them their lands, for which his old Virginia ideas of
hospitality would not allow him to charge a cent. There was one extraordinary trait in his character.
Although remarkable from childhood for his fearless courage, yet although he served as Justice of
the Peace and Sheriff in the then chaotic state of society, he was an extensive trader and served
wagon-master to the army in Hopkins' campaign, yet he was never known to have a fight, a
recontre of personal difficulty with known to have a fight, a rencontre or personal difficulty with
anyone. He left four sons and four daughters. John A., Thomas Alfred, Harrison, Washington, Jane,
Cynthia, Ann and Rachael.
William Taylor, the fourth son, was a man of powerful frame, will and energy all combined;
distinguished as one of the best farmers, and for building the first brick dwelling house in the county
and the first to thoroughly utilize our swamp lands for meadows. He had four sone, Septimus,
Richard, William, Harrison and an only daughter, Christina.
John taylor, the fifth son, died about middle age, yet lived long enough to establish a character of
unbounded liberality; was his own worst enemy, believed everybody and could be cheated by
everybody who tired, which qualities he imparted to most of his chidlren. It is though, however, that
Coffee John has drunk enough coffee to brace his nerves so that he holds his own with the world
pretty well. The names of his children were Ignatius, Benjamin, Lorenzo, Stephen, Fleming, (Coffee)
John, Hannah, Margaret, Sally and Elizabeth.
Septimus Taylor, the sixth son, also died early in life, leaving a reputation, however, of untiring
industry, and the following named children: Richard M., William S., Septimus, Levi, harvy, Jane,
and another daughter, Margera, who married years ago and moved to Indiana. All these are good
livers and have inflicted no disgrace on their ancestors.
Suffice it to say that Simon and Joseph, the two younger sons, like most pets, were a little spoiled in
the raising, bad managers, and thought Kentucky soil too poor and removed West, but at last
accounts had failed, either from not being rich enough by themselves, or from not finding lands rich
enough to buy farms, and were still renters. Little or nothing is known of their families.
Of the daughters, Hannah married Samuel Brown, both of whom lived and died in this county.
Margaret married James Harsha, who moved to Illinois. Jane married Levi Pigman, who moved to
the State of Ohio. All of these daughters raised numerous children.
We have now sketched a brief notice of the second generation of the Taylkor family, all of whom
have gone to their long homes and a large portion of the thrid generation have followed them, and
we who are left are in the sere and yellow leaf; the blandishments of life are gone, and our only care
should be to guard well the family escutcheon and maintain the reputation of "honest old Taylor at
the mill". We have none of us been wise as Solomon, brave as Ceasar, or renowned as Clay and
Webster. We have had our foibles and follies, but thus far none of us have been stained with crime
and dishonor. We will soon transmit the care of our family name and record to the fourth, fifth and
sixth generations. If there be any here today who have blotted that record, who have sullied that
name, let them this day resolve to spend the balance of their lives in wiping pout that stain. Let them
one and all, like their ancestors, regardless of the allurements of wealth and fame, resolve to live
industrious, honest lives, adding daily and yearly to their faith, virtue, knowledge and charity;
discharging all the duties of social and civil life, and whether they die with wealth and distinction, or
sink to rest in the humble log cabin, a good conscience will whiper peace to the departing spirit, and
their virtues will be cherished and remembered by those who come after them.
To the young men and boys just verging into life, let one whose sands of life have nearly run give a
word of advice. In our physical formation the spine and backbone is the grand support of our
bodies; weaken or destroy that and the whole body is paralyzed. It is just as necessary to have a
moral or intellectual backbone, a will, a firmness and fixed determination to carry out and finish
anything we undertake, or to refrain from doing what we think is wrong. The boy who can be
influenced to anything which he knows is wrong, or has not the energy to carry out and do what he
knows is right, will never make a man worth raising; he will always be a poor drone or ninny among
men.
Without wishing to be at all egotistical, I will tell how this backbone of principle was serviceable to
me at one period of my life, and in all probability saved me from ruin: When nearly of age I resolved
on studying a profession. My father contracted with the landlord of our principal tavern for my
board, etc. Well, I packed up and went to town, as green as a cucumber in the usages of town life;
dressed from head to foot in homespun, home-made clothing, as unlike town folks as a gosling to a
peacock, and the landlord assigned me a little eight by ten room immediately over the bar-room,
and I was to cut my own wood and make my own fires. From old decks of cards lying around I
began to suspicion that this was a resort for gamblers, and it was intended that I should be the
firemen for their benefit. Well, sure enough, on the next morning three gentlemen ( I knew them by
their voices, they were the leading doctor, lawyer and the most accomplished gentleman of leisure
and fortune in the community,) came into the bar-room below and requested to have a room to take
a game. "Oh, yes," said boniface, "walk up those stairs, you will find a good fire; a young Mr.
Taylor is up there, but he will have no objection." All this was loud enough for me to hear distinctly.
Heavens, what a fix, what a current of thought rushed through my mind, and before they had
ascended the stairs I had argued the questions pro and con: "I am here a lone boy, noticed by no
one, how pleasant it will be to accommodate and become intimate with such distinguished
gentlemen; how will it look for such an uncouth chap as I (casting a glance at my homespun,) to
refuse them so small a favor?" This was the argument pro, but by the time they had entered the
room and politely asked leave to play, I had made up and delivered the following opinion con:
"Gentlemen, I am here for the purpose to study and learn, and although I would be glad to
accommodate, yet if I were to do so others would expect the same privilege, so I think it best to
allow of no gaming at all." The old doctor, who was slightly cornered, wheeled around, audible
muttering curses as he retired, but the other two politely bowed themselves out, and, to my surprise,
I heard the young man defending me downstairs. And here let me remark, that this young man,
distinguished alike for his wealth, family connections and metal endowments, was ever after my
warm friend. Ah! How it grieved me to see him gradually sinking into an inebriate's grave. But to my
story. After the excitement abated, for I stammered with bashfulness as I spoke, I began to think
every person has a backbone to their principles if they would use it, but what have I don? My
landlord will be mad; these gentlemen may persecute me and the loafers and gamblers laugh me to
scorn, But I know I did right, and like Davey Crocket, I'll go ahead, and I commenced my reading
in good earnest. After awhile a young man, a boarder, came in and congratulated me for breaking
up the gambler's den, and when I went downstairs the landlord treated me with usual respect, the
landlady was delighted with my pluck, and I soon became a favorite among the ladies. In fact, the
affair, small as it was, soon became noised over town and instead of being passed without notice, or
a snarl of contempt, I was generally met with a friendly greeting; and believe I was the only country
lad that ever came to town whom the boys never tried to run the green off of. People will admire
pluck and backbone even in a puppy.
Now let us look at the other side of the picture. Suppose I had let these gentlemen play, I might
have been fascinate with their wit, perhaps wisdom; I might have taken a hand just to make up a
game; I might have tested their liquor just to be social, I might have become their boon companion,
and I might --- nay, I would certainly have become a drunkard. All three of these men met their
fate. I have never seen it fail.
Boys, one more remark and I am done. Stick to your fathers' farms and shops. Learn to earn your
bread by the sweat of your face, it is the surest way of living a respectable, honorable, honest life.
Do not be led astray by the fascinations of town and city life. I would not give one sober, honest
boy, with face bronzed by the sun and hands hardened by the undustrious toil, for a whole team of
city fops, with patches of down on their lips, a cigar half-way down their throats and dainty kid
gloves and boots that make poodle dogs bark at themselves. Such youths are taking tickets in life's
lottery it is true, but most of their prizes will be disappointed hopes, a loafer's calling, a blackleg's
hardened life of fraud and crime, a felon's cell or a drunkard's grave.
The above was snail mailed to me by Melba G. Fowler Riedel. She came across this information
while searching her Taylor line.

Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 3rd edition.,
1886. Allen County.
JOHN L. WILLIAMS was born in Allen County, Ky., on the 22d of July,
1856. He is a farmer and the son of a farmer. His father, James
Franklin Williams, who is also a native Kentuckian, was born in 1824,
and has been thrice married; his first wife was Jane Black, of Allen
County, Ky.; to this marriage were born four children: Robert B.,
Lucinda G. Dinwoody, Mary J. (deceased), and Sarah E. (deceased). His
second marriage took place with Martha E., daughter of John Briley, of
Allen County. To this marriage were born four children: John L.,
Amanda A. (Patton), Margaret J. (Gardner) and William B. N. His third
wife (Mary D. Patton) is yet living, aged about sixty years. James F.
Williams has been engaged in agricultural pursuits, in which he has been
very successful; his farm is one of the best in his section. He is now
sixty-one years of age. John L. Williams in early life attended such
schools as were afforded in his home district, where he laid the
foundation for a fair English education, and his contact with the
affairs of life has made him conversant with the literature of the day,
and disciplined him in business. At the age of twenty-four he married
Luella Duncan, daughter of Sanford and Kittie A. Duncan, of Allen
County; she was born April 19, 1860, and their marriage took place in
1880. She departed this life April 16, 1882; her only son, Robert B.,
died February 11, 1882, in infancy. After his marriage Mr. Williams and
his brother, William B. N., took charge of their father's farm, which
they have operated successfully since. The farm contains 200 acres; 125
acres are in cultivation and well improved with fences, buildings and
orchards. The water privileges are very good and the land is admirably
adapted to grass, and supports some of the best stock in the county.
Socially Mr. Williams commands the respect and esteem of all who know
him; he is a member of the Baptist Church. He is a Democrat, but not a
political aspirant, and lends a willing hand to the assistance of his
friends and the improvement of the community. Robert B. Williams, the
eldest son of James Franklin Williams, was a graduate of the Louisville
Medical College, and died in Memphis, Tenn., to which place he had gone
to treat cases of yellow fever.

Donald - Did you get my email last night -about Sam Claypoole and the
book
he is publishing about the Claypooles???
Jody was a teenager still in high school when I 1st corresponded with
him.
He is from a sister of Wm James Chapman - Sarah who m Lawson Lynch -
I had
not heard from him for several years - now I am getting info from him
occasionally. He had sent me this info in May just as my computer
failed
and I lost it. Finally got him to find it again and send it to me.
He is
a lawyer and works for the Gov of KY. This is some of what he sent.
It
corresponds with what you sent me on the Schroaders. I think the
Frederick
in what you sent and this info is the same one and is brother to our
JOHN
G. Jr.
from Jody:
Last year, I noticed that in the Warren Co., KY Census for 1810, a "Jon
G.
Schroder" is
listed on pg. 4: 01201-00001. He is over 45 (born before 1765), as is
his
wife (the eldest female). Also listed on pg. 4 (and in all of Warren
Co.)
are Jon N. Schroder
(10100-10100) and Emanuel F. Schroder (10100-00100), both of which
could be
the Jon G.'s sons. Also, our John G. could easily be the 1 male in the
10-16
age range listed under "Jon G.", as his birth date is attributed to be
1794.
Building on this information, the 1820 Census appears thus:
Mary "Schrader" on p. 19 seems to be the widow of Jon G. of the 1810
Census
(000100-00001), as she is the only female of age (still over 45) to fit
the
bill. Also listed
on p. 19 is John Schrader (our John), who as a younger son would be the
likely one to
remain close to his mother, as was the custom in those days
(000010-20100).
On pg. 21, we find Frederick Shroader (310010-00010), William Shroader
(100010-00100), and Nicholas Shroader (no listing). Given the age
ranges, I
propose that Frederick is Emanuel F(rederick) and Nicholas is John
N(icholas) of the 1810 Census--as I have learned that Germans often
utilized
these first names as common Christian names, but seemed to refer to the
second (or middle) name.
Therefore, I propose that John G. and Mary are the parents of Emanuel
Frederick, John
Nicholas, William, our John G.(Jr.), and Henry Schroader. Mary
apparently
died between the 1820 and 1830 Censuses. Henry first appears in the
Warren
Co. Census in 1830, and appears to be the youngest son of John G. (Sr.)
and
Mary--p. 51
(000010000000-200010000000).
With census info and other Warren Co. vital records, here's what we can
piece together:
1. John Nicholas b. 1784-94 marr. Rebecca Smith 1-27-1806 Warren Co. KY
2. Emanuel Frederick b. 1784-94
3. John G. (Jr.) b. 1790-4 (we know the rest)
4. William b. ca. 1794 marr. Nancy Lykins 2-16-1819 Warren Co., KY
5. Henry b. ca. 1795 marr. Elizabeth Spinks 10-20-1825 Warren Co., KY
Going backward from Warren Co., I found this reference in Warren Co.,
KY
Families, p.
131:
"A large migration of families from southwestern Virginia (Montgomery,
Wythe, and
Botetourt Counties) came to the northern part of Warren County, KY,
from
1809-1811
into the Richardsville and Anna communities of that county, including
the
Schroader
family (emphasis mine)."
Well, how surprised was I to find the following after a survey of
records
for these VA
counties:
"Reverend Jno. George Shroeder" was appointed to solemnize the rites of
matrimony in Montgomery Co., VA, by the County Court at its 6-5-1782
session. (Annals of Southwest VA 1769-1800, Vol. 1, p. 776) A John and
Henry
(a brother?) "Shreder" paid taxes for 1788 in Montgomery Co. on
1-19-1789
(Mont. Co. VA Tax Lists, 1788 List B, p. 10) and for 1789 on 3-31-1790
(Mont. Co. VA, ca. 1790, Personal Property Tax List B, p. 26).
The 1789 tax list locates John and Henry's residences, which were one
household apart, on both sides of Reed Creek near Cedar Run (id., p.
92).
While records do not indicate when John G. (Sr.?) emigrated to
Montgomery
Co., a Henry "Shrider" (the same as the one noted above?) purchased 3
lots
in the town of Fincastle in Botetourt Co., VA, on 8-12-1778 (Bote. Co.
Deeds, Annals of Southwest VA 1769-1800, Vol. 1, p. 559; Bote. Co. VA
Early
Settlers, Deed Book 2, p. 355). This Henry "Shrider" paid taxes in
Botetourt
Co. from 1780-1785 (exc. 1783?) as a part of the 40th Co. of VA Militia
and
specifically paid taxes on the Fincastle lots in 1782 and 1785 (Bote.
Co. VA
and its Men 1780-6).
Now, the tradition is that our John G. was born in Maryland, as the bio
of
his son John R. Schroader later states, but I have learned these bios
often
have historical errors in them, as this bio was written in the late
1800's
when John R. was a successful attorney in Murray. It appears from the
research above that our John G., along with his brothers,
were born in Montgomery Co., VA, or its vicinity!
Taking this one step further, I was curious if I could locate any John
G.
Schroaders in the LDS IGI information now located on the web. John G.
Schroader, Sr., was born prior to 1765 according to census record. I
found
the following:
Johann Georg Shroder, christened 12-25-156, Macungie (?) Township,
Lehigh
Co., PA
Father: Georg Schroder Mother: Elizabeth Egner IGI Batch #8014903 Sheet
98
This was all I could find, but since many Germans emigrated south from
PA
into the
mountain regions of western VA and NC in the 1770's and 1780's, I
thought
this was a
likely possibility. Who knows, John G. (Sr.) might have settled in
Maryland
(between PA
and VA), as he migrated south--particularly if he was a minister of the
Reformed Church
(the prominent denomination among the "Pennsylvania Dutch", I have some
Peelers from the same area who went to NC ca. 1765). I have noted in
other
research that ministers moved around quite a bit.
Well, that is quite a bit of information, but it is all that I sent you
earlier. I'll let you digest
it and comment on the connections. I think it is a good start, with
logical
relationships.
Of course, it bears a lot of work still!
1. I propose that Jon N. of the 1810 Census is the Nicholas of
subsequent
censuses--I
don't know what became of him or his wife.
2. I think the Johann Georg Schroder of PA (b. 1756--you're right!!),
is the
one and the
same as our John G., Sr., who according to census was born before 1765.
This
would be the father of our John G., Jr., as well as Emanuel Frederick,
John
Nicholas, William, and Henry, plus the unnamed daughters.
3. Georg Schroder and Elizabeth Egner are parents of the Johann Georg
noted
above
(which is our John G., Sr.)--in other words, they would be the
grandparents
of John G.
Schroader, Jr., and great-grandparents of our Dicey (Schroader) Chapman
and
her
brother, my Obediah Amos Schroader--remember, I am descended two ways
from
John G., Jr., and Spicey Amos!!
4. Yes, I definitely think that these Schroaders would be Germans that
migrated to
America before the Revolution. However, I am not sure whether they were
Palatines--most of which came over in the 1720's through the
1740's--like
some other
ancestors of mine. I'll check for a Georg Schroder to see if he was an
immigrant on the
Palatine web page!
Any other thoughts on the Schroader info that I sent to you? There is
really
nothing more
I can find on the net, but I have found some interesting records for
the
Lower Macungie
Church in Lehigh CO., PA, on the PA Archives page on USGenWeb--the
births of
many
of the George (Georg) Schroder and Elizabeth (Elizabetha) Egner
children are
noted in
the church records for the late 1700's. I also found a George Shroder
in
Rockbridge Co., VA in 1790 which is just up the Shenandoah Valley from
Botetourt and Montgomery Cos., where I found the records for Rev. John
George Schro(a)der, Sr. This census record can be found on the
Rockbridge
Co., VA archives online at USGenWeb. I looked over maps of the area
between
Lehigh Co., PA (just northeast of Philadelphia) and Montgomery Co., VA,
with
Rockbridge Co. between. They all lay in a southwesterly line. If the
connections all work out through additional documentation and research,
I
propose that this earliest possible ancestor, George Schro(a)der, left
Lehigh Co., PA, to migrate south (like many other "PA Dutch" or
Palatines
did) before 1790; traversed Maryland (possibly settling for a brief
time
which accounts for the bio of John R. Schroader stating that his father
John
G., Jr. was born in Maryland); settled first in Rockbridge Co., VA,
where
George remained through the time of the 1790 Census; and his son John
George
Schro(a)der, Sr., moved on from there into the more frontier regions of
Botetourt and Montgomery Cos., VA (where John G., Jr., was born in 1794
instead of Maryland); and then moved on into Kentucky before 1810. But
this
is all supposition based on trying to connect the records thus far.

BIRTH-PARENTS-SIBLINGS-MARRIAGE-SPOUSE-CHILDREN-DEATH: records. of Linda J. West
CA 1995. Marriage Record cannot be found for John Austin and Charity Kendrick.
Charity Kendrick is the widow of John's brother Thomas who died 1761. He wrote
his will in Montgomery Co., MD in 1818, which was probated Nov. 12, 1823.
"John married about 1761/62, apparently in Frederick Co., MD, as his first
child was born there in 1763. His wife Charity, born about 1732 by the 1776
census. The record of his marriage cannot be found, however all evidence
points to the fact that she was Charity Kendrick. It is also believed that
Charity was first married to John's brother, Thomas Austin. a birth is
recorded in Prince George's Parish, Frederick Co., MD, a son Thomas born to
Thomas and Charity Austin 1760. this son Thomas is found living with John &
Charity on the 1776 census, along with Alexander and Kesiah, believed to be
children of Thomas & Charity. In the same census, a Mary Austin age 80, is
also found in John's household, and no doubt is the mother of our John Austin.
They are shown living in the Lower Potomack Hundred, land which was taken from
Frederick Co. in 1776 and made into Montgomery Co., MD.
John and Charity were members of Prince George's Parish (Protestant
Episcopal Church), then Frederick Co., now Montgomery Co. this parish covered
a very large area, all records being kept in the same book. today our Austin
records are found recorded at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Washington, DC and
at Christ Church, Rockville, MD. We cannot know with any certainty just which
of these two churches John & Charity belonged to. altho the listing of graves
in Montgomery Co.,MD is fairly complete, the burial place of our John & Charity
has not been located. Neither can the grave be found for John's mother, Mary
Austin. However, time and the farmers plow have destroyed many of these old
sand stones.
In 1778 John Auston took the
Oath of fidelity and Support" during the Revolution before the Worship full
Samuel W. Magruder. No other records can be found of John's contribution to
the Rebellion.
John's plantation, as was called in those days, consisted of 246 acres
which was named "Conclusion". We have been unable to pinpoint this land
exactly, but it appears it was in the area of present day Bethesda, MD."

tobacco and cask, delivered to the water front as rent or share cropper. There
is NO PROOF AS YET, that this John was the husband of our Mary, but if indeed

Notes for Thomas Tinsley:
There is no proof that this is the father of our Thomas Tinsley, but I thought I would include it until it could I could find data to prove he was the father of our Thomas Tinsley.
Thomas Tinsley, emigrant and primogenitor of the Tinsley family in America,
was born circa 1618, in Yorkshire, England. Early research indicates that
he married Elizabeth Randolph.
Thomas Tinsley arrived in Jamestown, Virginia Colony, in 1638, his
transportation furnished by John Robins of James City County.(1) In early
land documents his name is spelled variously by scribes and copyists as
Thomas Tinsley (1638), Thomas Tinsley (1650), and Thomas Tinsley (1655).(2)
Before he owned any land, Thomas Tinsley lived on a creek that was then
known as Moses Run. On February 7,1650 Philip Charles was granted 450
acres on the west side of the Chickahominy River upon Moses Run and
described as next above Thomas Tinsley.(3)
The first patent of land to Thomas Tinsley was issued December 13, 1650,
by Sir William Berkeley, colonial governor, for 300 acres upon Moses Run,
on the west side of Chickahominy River in James City County, Virginia. The
grant was described as bounded west by north upon the Run; south by west
upon the land of Mr. Theodore Moses; east by north upon Mr. Foyes land;
and north by west upon the woods. The said land was granted unto Thomas
Tinsley for paying the price of passage from England to the colony for
emigrants Robert Arwin, Milliscent Thompson, Walter Villecott, Abraham
Watson, Thomas Sawyer, and Elin. Faning.(4)
By 1662 Thomas Tinsley had bought 300 more acres of land from Martin Baker,
on the south side of the York River in New Kent County.(5) A patent was
issued to John Bowman on May 15, 1672, for 108 acres "on the North side of
James River on the west side of Chickahominy river adjoining to Thomas
Tinsley."(6)
On February 28, 1689, Thomas Tinsley was involved in the remarking of his
land in St. Peter's Parish, and during the year helped "Cleere the Roades
in his precinct...up the north Side of Totopotomoys Creek."(7)
Thomas Tinsley built his home on Totopotomoy Creek, formerly known as
Moses Run, twelve miles north of the present site of Richmond. This creek,
enclosing a peninsula in the present Hanover County, was named for
Totopotomoy (d.1656), chief of the Pamunkey Indians and a successor to
Powhatan. The ancestral place of the Tinsley family, called "Totomoi,"
still remains in the possession of descendants.(8)
The first westward expedition in 1669 of John Lederer, the German traveler
and explorer, to find a passage through the Blue Ridge and Appalachian
mountains, passed through the immediate vicinity where Thomas Tinsley
lived. The narrative of the journey mentions Totopotomoy, who had been
killed some thirteen years previously, and also describes the killing
nearby of a wildcat:
"The next day falling into Marsh grounds between Pemaeoncock [York
River] and the head of the River Matapeneugh, the Heaviness of the way
obliged me to cross Pemaeoncoek, where its North and South-branch (called
Ackmick) join in one. In the Peninsula made by these two branches, a great
Indian King called Tottopottoma was heretofore slain in Battel, fighting
for the Christians against the Mahocks and Nahyssans, from whence it
retains his name to this day. Travelling through the Woods, a Doe seized
by a wild Cat crossed our way; the miserable creature being even spent and
breathless with the burden and cruelty of her rider, who having fasted on
her shoulder, left not sucking out her blood until she sunk under him;
which one of the Indians perceiving, let fly a Luckie Arrow, which
piercing him through the belly, made him quit his prey already slain,
and turn with a terrible grimas at us; but his strength and spirits
falling him, we escaped his revenge, which had certainly ensued, were
not his wound mortal. This creature is something bigger than our English
fox, of a reddish grey color, and in figure every way agreeing with an
ordinary Cat; fierce, ravenous and cunning."(9)
Thomas Tinsley was an extensive planter. He shipped tobacco to England and
imported domestic luxuries and clothing.(10) Virginia history states that
he was a man of high esteem, great influence, and courage.(11)
Thomas Tinsley took part in Bacon's Rebellion in 1676, the opening gun of
the long struggle for American independence. One seat of discontent
proceeding the rebellion was Blisland Parish, mother parish of St. Peter's
in James City and New Kent counties. Tinsley signed the Blisland Parish
Grievances, dated April 2, 1677, a document listing a number of oppressions
of the British government under Sir William Berkeley that led to the
rebellion. The paper was presented to three royal commissioners sent from
England to the colony to investigate the armed revolt. Included in the
complaints were high taxes, Indian murders and depredations, exactions of
sheriffs, selling of strong drink during court days, and duties levied on
ships. Signers of the grievances, distraught over having to obtain arms
by any means, also made a plea for an arms magazine.(12)
An attachment of 900 pounds. of tobacco was granted against the estate of
Thomas Tinsley in Essex County, June 21, 1699, for his failure to appear
in defense of a court suit initiated by Robert Payne.(13)
In his will, Thomas Tinsley left his eldest son Thomas Tinsley "one young
Gray Stoned Colt branded TT."(14) This brand, used by him in seventeenth-
century Virginia, was one of the first in what is now the United States.
His use of this ownership mark was 100 years before burned brands supposedly
came into limited use in Virginia. One researcher on seventeenth-century
cattle in Virginia has made this statement: "Burned brands had come into
limited use by the end of the eighteenth century. George Washington
burned "G.W." on his cattle, the position on the animal indicating the
plantation where they were pastured.(15)
Thomas Tinsley followed the English custom of naming the first born son
after the father, with this son inheriting the bulk of the estate.
His will is dated October 9, 1700, New Kent County, Virginia. Witnesses
were Richard Meriwether, Jeremah Poupe, and John Oakes. It was recorded
in 1702, in New Kent County, upon the corporal oaths of Nicholas
Meriwether and John Oakes.(18)

Notes for Thomas Tinsley:
I have information for your first Tinsley, Thomas. His father was
Thomas also, married to Elizabeth Randolph. He came from Yorkshire
England in 1638 to Jamestown. I am his 7th great grandson.
I have been to the Tinsley home in Hanover Couty Va (Totomoi). It is
still occupied by a Tinsley decendent. This was deded by Sir William
Berkley in 1650. The present structure was built in 1795, following a
devasting fire that destroyed all but the twin chimneys of the original
home.
There is a family book written by Jim Bob Tinsley that includes the
early Tinsley info before branching off to cover his line. It is From
Totopotomoy to Transylvania. Not sure how to get copies, as i got this
from a cousin.
