I found Andrew McFadden in 1968 in abstracts. I have never seen copies of any original documents on him. John Stephen McFadin (1700 - 1776) married twice. 1.

Hi-- The spelling of Stuartsville is Stewartsville and it is just outside Poseyville, to the NW (I think). My ggg grandmother, Sarah Bennett Crabtree is buried in the Stewartsville cemetery-- she has a flat marker, which was gradually being covered by grass the last time I saw it (abt 4 yrs ago). And supposedly her father, Legro? Bennett is buried there-- but has no marker. There is a small grove of trees on the west side of the cem which looked like it might have had a fence around it-- there are concrete posts, but there is no marker. I cannot prove as of now that Legro was her father. Another Bennett researcher has Legro leaving the area and going to MO. Legro supposedly came from Christian Co, KY, where the Crabtrees came from and he was in the Revolutionary War. The Crabtrees originally came from the Carolinas and Sarah supposedly was born in VA. So these early folks got around a bit, didn't they? I do not know where the poor farm was-- it may have been closer to Mt. Vernon-- I'd be interested in knowing more about the county, and also connecting with any Bennetts or Crabtrees. Thanks.
