For anyone interested in the Hansborough family I have developed the following information in researching the Scoggan line in Shelby Co KY: JOHN HANSBOROUGH Born c1769 Died Married Sarah Scoggan c1789 Culpeper County, Virginia Born 11 Sep 1769 Fauquier County, Virginia Died 1856 Children (order of birth unknown): Anne Hansborough b. d. m. Iverson Ware 23 Jul 1811 Shelby County, Kentucky Elizabeth Hansborough b. d. m. George Sanders 20 Apr 1814 Shelby County, Kentucky Morias Hansborough b. c1795-1802 d. m. Catharine Smith 08 Apr 1819 Shelby County, Kentucky Silas Hansborough b. c1804-1810 d. m. Sarah W Watts 10 Oct 1837 Shelby County, Kentucky Parmenas Hansborough b. c1804-1810 d. m. Dulsina Rucker 24 Dec 1834 Shelby County, Kentucky Jane Hansborough b. d. m. Louis N Sanders 20 Dec 1833 Shelby County, Kentucky (daughter) Hansborough b. d. m. ----- Sanders  (daughter) Hansborough b. d. m. ----- Irwin John Hansborough, who married Sarah Scoggan, was a son of Morias and Jane Hansborough. Sarah Scoggan, who was born in 1769, and John Hansborough were married in Culpeper County, Virginia, about 1789, with George Dodson as surety on their bond, and died in 1856 at the home of her son, Dr. Silas Hansborough. She is buried in the Odd Fellows Cemetery at Simpsonville in Shelby County, Kentucky. John Hansborough and Sarah Scoggan were the parents of Morias, Silas, who married Catherine, Elizabeth who married George Sanders, Anne who married Iverson Ware, Parmenas, Jane, two other daughters who were married to men named Sanders, one who was married to a man named Irwin, from whom Mrs. Nettie Irwin of New Albany, Indiana, descended, and two daughters who were killed by Indians. However the two Hansborough children, known to have been killed by Indians in Kentucky, died in 1781 and could not have been daughters of Sarah Scoggan, who was born in 1769 and married John Hansborough about 1789. The two Hansborough girls who were killed in the massacre at Long Run were sisters of John Hansborough, who was a son of Morias and Jane Hansborough: Morias Hansborough, who was born c1740 and died in Shelby County, Kentucky, in 1800, married (1) Jane ------ and (2) Mary Underwood. By Jane he had John Hansborough, who was born c1769 and married Sarah Scroggin; daughters unnamed; Susannah Hansborough, who was born c1775 and married Luke Robinson; George Hansborough, who was born c1777 and married Nancy Howard; and Joel Hansborough, who was born in March 1779 and married Lucy Gooch. Morias is not known to have had any children by Mary Underwood. Luke Robinson and Susannah Hansborough had a son James from whom Martha Ellen McDaniel Thompson of Redding, California, in 1983, descends. The daughters whose names are not known probably were the two daughters killed by the Indians at Long Run. Morias Hansborough must have been among the early settlers of Shelby County, Kentucky, who made their home at Squire Boone’s Station in April 1781. Located on Clear Creek, where Shelbyville is now, the fort, which was also known as Painted Stone Station, was then somewhat isolated from other settlements. While traveling from Linn’s Station to Brashear’s Station, to get a minister to conduct two weddings at Linn’s, Major Bland Ballard observed signs of a large body of Indians in the area and rode to surrounding settlements, including Boone’s Station, where he arrived at night, to warn them. For safety, the inhabitants of Boone’s decided to accompany Ballard back to Linn’s, in the more densely populated area around Louisville. Squire Boone could not get ready in time to go with them and could not prevail upon them to wait another day, so he and a few other families, who could not get their belongings together immediately, remained at Boone’s, intending to follow later. Ballard and his party set out the next morning. At Long Run of Floyd’s Fork in eastern Jefferson County, near the Shelby County line, the group was attacked by the Indians and a great many settlers were killed, including “two Misses Hansboros, sisters of Joel Hansboro.” Morias Hansborough is listed in the Culpeper County Minute Book for 1763-1764 on pages 343, 381 and 434. Joel Hansborough, married Lucy Gooch on 13 February 1810 in Shelby County with James Craig as bondsman. George Hansborough married Nancy Howard, daughter of Drury and Mary Howard on 27 April 1799. The brothers of Sarah Scoggan Hansborough apparently came with, or followed, her to Kentucky, bringing their mother Winnie Dodson Scoggan. On 28 March 1812 John and Sarah Hansborough sold three similar tracts of land in Shelby County on the waters of Gist Creek to John Scoggan, George Scoggan and William Dodson Scoggan. The land was part of a tract of 1375 acres surveyed earlier for William Crowder. Charles Scoggan seems to have settled in Jefferson County. Anne Hansborough (Hansbrough), daughter of John Hansborough (Hansbrough), who was surety on the bond, married Iverson Ware on 23 July 1811 in Shelby County. Elizabeth Hansborough (Hansbrough), daughter of John Hansborough (Hansbrough), who was surety on the bond, married George Sanders (Saunders) on 20 April 1814. Morias Hansborough married Catharine Smith, daughter of George G. Smith, on 08 April 1819. Parmenus Hansborough married Dulsina Rucker on 24 December 1834 with Isaac Lewis as bondsman. Silas Hansborough married Sarah W. Watts, daughter of William Watts, on 10 October 1837, with James Wells, guardian of Sarah, as surety. Iverson Ware was a member of the Forks of Elkhorn Baptist Church in Woodford County, Kentucky, in 1801. He died in Shelby County, Kentucky, about 1822. His will names his wife Anne and children John and Louisianny. William Dodson Scoggan married Mary “Polly” Settle on 13 Jan 1801 in Fauquier County, Virginia, and died in Adams County, Illinois, about 1857. William D. Scaggan, Polly Suttle, 13 Jan 1801, Fauquier Mary “Polly” Settle was a daughter of James or William Settle. George Scoggan married (1) Anne Weakley, daughter of Thomas Weakley and Elizabeth Redding, on 20 February 1800 in Shelby County, Kentucky, and (2) Abigail Martin, daughter of Samuel Martin and Susannah Wickcliffe on 07 March 1804 in Woodford County, Kentucky, and died in 1834 in Lawrence County, Indiana.2 James Martin was surety for George Scoggan and Anne Weakley.
