Frank: Per the book: The Picklesimer's of Eastern Kentucky by John Wayne and John Walter Picklesimer, p. 69, I quote: John (3rd) (b. 1765-1770) who married Elizabeth Miller in Rowan Co, NC in Jan 1794, and who shows up in the 1820 and 1830 census for Bath County, KY was the father of: Sally who married William Fortune in Montgomery Co, KY in Sep 1823, Betsy who married Ben Warner in Bath County, KY in Jul 1825, Rachael, Jesse who married Eliza Gill in Bath County, KY Mar 16, 1831, Andrew who married Matilda Bibb in Clark County, KY, Sep 1, 1834 and James who married first, Amanda Martin in Bath County, KY Oct 8, 1835 and second, Elizabeth Cassity Sep 5, 1844. These were the 6 children by his first wife. He married secondly, Katherine Sailor in Fleming County, KY Sep 20, 1813 by whom he had 5 daughters: Rebecca, Lydia, Polly, Ann, Caroline and Amarinda and 3 sons, John, Jr, Jefferson and Asa. The daughters all married in Bath County, Rebecca to George W. Swank Oct 13, 1831, Lydia first to William Minear Jun 9, 1834. They removed to Iowa then later to Texas where William died.

Of the sons,. only the record of Asa's marriage was found. He married Catherine Sadler Apr 14, 1848 in Morgan County, KY. The date of John's death is unknown, but his will was filed for probate in Bath County, KY in Jan 1844. Katherine Sailor married secondly Oct 19, 1847 in Bath County, KY to Stephen Smoot. Note: John did not move from Montgomery, KY to Bath County. When Bath County was created in Sep 1811, from part of Montgomery County, his homestead fell within the bounds of the new county.
