PARTON/PARTON born 1837 in HARDIN, KY and she married ZACHARIAH RAY on 5 MAY 1867 in PULASKI CO., KY. ++++++++++++++++++++++ Second daughter: ELIZABETH "J" (Jane?) HENDERSON who was born in 1838 and she married JOHN W. LONG on 18 JUNE 1856. They had a daughter named SARAH JANE LONG born 10 MAR 1857. *This made me think that the parents may have been a "Sarah or Jane" Henderson for Delilah's mom...or for James' mom...first and second born daughter thing with the naming game...you know? are normally the moms of the couple. ++++++++++++++++++++++++ JAMES RILEY PARTIN (now I have seen that RILEY name and it is not frequent in all surnames or in many of them for that fact... *I search for an earlier "RILEY" PARTIN who could have been father to my JAMES or a RILEY HENDERSON... *Since this James is the first born son to my ggg grandfather I was thinking that RILEY was his dads name and perhaps he gave his own first name to his son...JAMES...are there any JAMES or RILEY PARTINS in Tennessee or the Carolinas? How about a RILEY HENDERSON? residing near PARTINS or PARTONS in North Carolina? ++++++++++++++++++++++++ MARSHALL was born in 1844/45 in HARDIN KY and Ill be dang but I cant find anyone! in the PartinPartonParten or Henderson family with that first name...could it have been a surname? given as a middle name? ++++++++++++++++++++++++ JOHN "A" (alfred or Arthur) born in 1846/47 in HART COUNTY KENTUCKY...they moved to HART from HARDIN sometime in 1845/1846. ++++++++++++++++++++++++ JOSEPH "A" PARTIN born 1846/47 (may have been a twin to John A.) married ELIZABETH ANN MEECE on 16 MAR 1876. ++++++++++++++++++++++++ PERMELIA PARTIN was born in 1849 in PULASKI COUNTY, KENTUCKY and married WILLIAM HENRY MEECE ++++++++++++++++++++++++ CHARLES MARION PARTIN was born 11 APR 1851 and married a ELIZABETH HUDSON on 21 AUG 1879 and he died 15 JAN 1939 and is buried at Decatur, Illinois at the CHANDLER CEMETERY. ++++++++++++++++++++++++ MATTHEW FLOYD PARTIN this man is my great great grandfather. HE WAS NAMED AFTER ONE OF TWO MEN I THINK...THERE IS A MATTHEW FLOYD WHO WAS A BAPTIST PREACHER AT INDIAN CREEK BAPTIST WHERE ALOT OF MY FAMILIES WERE ATTENDING OR THEY WERE PREACHERS THERE IN THAT TIME FRAME. THERE IS ALSO A MATTHEW FLOYD PARTIN out of North Carolina AS WELL I HEARD AND STILL NEEDTO RESEARCH AS I BELIEVE THAT THE TWO NAME COMBOS ODD IF NOT FROM THE SAME FAMILY.....Matthew Floyd Partin. MATTHEW FLOYD PARTIN married CELIA BALZER LAY, the daughter of a HENRY LAY and ELIZABETH TRIMBLE (Darter/Tarter/Trimble/Lay) MATTHEW FLOYD was born 16 JULY 1854 in PULASKI COUNTY, KY. He married on 13 FEB 1873 and he died 20 OCTOBER 1938 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ NAPOLEAN B. PARTON (now I have never!! been able to find that given name in the HENDERSONs or the PARTINs...Any NAPOLEAN HENDERSONs or NAPOLEAN PARTINS in North Carolina the late 1700s?...Gosh, am I really asking you about something that happened almost 300 years ago??! Im floored at the prospect or possibility of uncovering information from that far back.... NAPOLEAN married MARY S. GAINES. +++++++++++++++++++++++ MARY MARTHA PARTIN born 27 FEB 1859 married WILLIAM E. MCLIN died in childbirth on OCTOBER 9, 1888. ++++++++++++++++++++++ My cousin Tammy shared the following: "Family lore says JAMES PARTIN had money. He came to INDIANA first from KY and the others followed soon thereafter. My mother thinks he paid for my gggrandfather's funeral. This is highly possible as my great grandfather (LEWIS GREEN was his name) is not buried next to my grandmother and my grandmother had no money and lived with various children when she was older. ++++++++++++++++++++++ Sent to me by another: Everton Publication= Delilah Henderson was born as a Child to Joseph Henderson B. 1770 Virginia and Jane McGee B.1770 in Ireland, other children were William, Robert b. 1795, Polly, DELILAH, Jane,Elizabeth, John, Joseph b. 1808, Sarah, Nelson and Samuel. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Any information or leads appreciated....
