Our family is descended from the marriage of John SARGENT and Mary "Polly" LAMB
on 22 November 1796 in Maysville, Mason Co., Kentucky. The marriage was witnessed by
Mary's brother-in-law, Abraham NORRIS. Abraham had married Mary's sister, Ellen Anna LAMB,
in 1796 in Mason County, Kentucky [Abraham and Ellen NORRIS may have lived briefly in
Washington County, Kentucky]. Mary and Ellen's father was believed to be William LAMB
married to a Sarah, probably Sarah WOODS. Younger children of William's family were born
in Kentucky. The SARGENT, LAMB, and NORRIS families all have deep roots in Maryland. In
Mason County and later in Brown County, Ohio these families intermarried fairly
frequently. We have speculated that these families all emigrated from Maryland at the same
time, coming to Mason County. Does anyone know anything about these families in
particular? Or anything in general about what would bring a contingent of people from
Maryland to Mason County, Kentucky in the 1790s? Any help you can provide will be greatly
appreciated. Or if you know anyone who has any information about these families, please
let us know. Thank you. Sincerely,

JAMES MOLLIHORN brought his family to Kentucky with the Maryland Catholics on the frontier

are listed in Washington Co. census for 1800. James was married twice. I don't know his
1st wife, but his second was Maria Langley and they married in 1771. Charles could be from
the 1st marriage because his son William was born in 1790. So Charles had to be born
abt.1760-1770. Does anyone have any info on this family? I would appreciate any help!

came from, and any other information you have which may help pinpoint the anscestor.
Consider sending birth year, etc. When you receive the information back I would also

In doing research on my husband's family tree, a Wade-Brewer relationship was found that
proved to be a challenge. The mystery is the exact lineage of John Evan Wade, born July
24, 1792 or 1793 in Washington County, Kentucky. Previous research revealed John Evan Wade
was a prominent farmer of Daviess County, Indiana. At the time of his death on December
16,1865, John was the owner of 320 acres of well-improved land. After his marriage on July
13, 1811 in Washington County, Kentucky, he and his wife resided in Marion County,
Kentucky and Lawrence County, Indiana. John Evan was married to Mary Ellen (aka Eleanora)
Brewer, who bore him nine children. They were James, William Henry, Benedict Joseph
"Ben," Thomas "Alvin," Julia Ann, Marietta, David W., John, and
Winifred Elizabeth "Bett." Zebe Wade, son of Benedict was also raised in John
Evan's home. Eleanora's parents were James Brewer and Mary Yates of St. Mary's County,
Maryland. The Washington County, Kentucky marriage record may have more than a little
bearing on the situation. John and Eleanora's recorded marriage bond was signed by Mary
Yates Brewer and Sarah Wade Owens, wife of James Owens. Sarah may have been John's mother,
older sister, aunt, or cousin. John Evan Wade (spelled, Evan Waid) was a private in the
War of 1812 and the Battle of New Orleans. Unfortunately, his military record only
revealed his pay of $8 a month and his will appointing Joseph Wade as his attorney. A
family note of unknown source says that John Evan and his wife are buried at Kilgore in
Van Buren Township, Daviess County, Indiana. A descendant of James Wade states positively,
that John and Eleanora are buried in the old cemetery of St. Peter's at Montgomery,
Indiana. Yet the question remains, who were John Evan Wade's parents and siblings? Any
information on John Evan Wade, Eleanora Brewer Wade, Sarah Wade Owens, or James Owens will
be greatly appreciated.

I would like to contact anyone who knows about the writings of
Orval W. Baylor who lived in Washington County in late 1933,1934
and maybe longer. He wrote "Baylor's History of the Baylors" ,
was the Editor of "Baylor's Quarterly" a magazine for the
Baylor Family Historical Society during the period 1930-1933. The
publication name was changed in the fall of 1933 to "Baylor's
Magazine of Family History". My question is: Were there issues
after the Fall 1933 issue? If so, where could I find them?
Before moving to Washington County in 1933, he lived in
Louisville, KY.

I am trying to find out the ancestors of my great-great grandfather,
Charles Kendrick Whelan, Sr. I think that his father was Michael Whelan,
for I found a Kendrick Whelan, age 23 in the 1860 Census for Meade
County, and his father was Michael Whelan, and his mother was Annie P.
This would approximately fit the age of my great-great grandfather, who
was born around 1838 and died in 1873. However, I cannot find him in the
1850 census of Meade County. My great grandfather, his son, was named
Charles Kendrick Whelan, Jr, and my grandfather was Michael Edward
Whelan, both of whom died in Meade County. I found a Micheal Whelan in
the 1840 census of Marion County, so I am thinking that before coming to
Meade County, he could have lived in one of the following counties:
Hardin, Larue, Nelson, Washington, Bullit, Breckinridge, Mercer. Any help
in my search would be appreciated.

Query: Several years ago, while doing research on my MOORE lines, I came across
a series of newpaper columns done by Mr. Orval Baylor, concerning the
history of Washington County, Kentucky, many of which were then included in
a book by him concerning the history of the county. These articles were
are a real springboard for research into my PITMAN/BERRY lines, taking me
all the way back to Virginia. What I am wondering is: How reliable was
his research. It seems very much so to me, but I have found that there is
a lot of disagreement in other sources concerning the Lincoln connection to
the Shipleys and the Berrys. The columns were written in the 1930s Just
wondering if anyone out there knows a reason to disbelieve the
information in them as sources for genealogy.

Query: I am descended from a Washington Co, KY HAYDEN line. Susanna HAYDEN
married John SHIVELY in Washington County, KY on 10-10-1794. Susanna was a
daughter of William HAYDEN and Susanna BUCKMAN. Am searching to learn more
about the SHIVELY line and has been a slow process. There is much

Query: Need help filling in some blanks in a family story. My maternal gg grandfather,
William Daniel CLARK (b. July 1848 & d. ca.1909), lost a leg working at a quarry near Mackville, (Washington County) KY.
He used the money from the accident to buy or lease a farm in Mackville.
The farm went to his eldest son George W. CLARK at William's death. I know the farm was gone by 1925.
My questions: Does anyone know the quarry? It's name? Is it still in operation?
Where would I find records?
Is anyone out there from Mackville or someplace close. I would like to
know more about the town and what used to be around.
