Her English name listed on her childrens Elliott County, KY birth certificates is Mary J. Cline born in Scott County, IN. Some of her other childrens' BC's said "unknwn BP" for her so I didnt know if due to possibly wanting to hid NA this is even her name or her birth place. When I investigated Scott County it looks like the other issue is she could have been Cherokee, Deleware, or Potawatomi Indian. So which rolls to look on but w/out her native name I think its not gonna be there. idk?? I figured this has had to happen to many other ppl on here so I thought I'd check for some ideas.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: howserc82 Surnames: Gladden, Whitlatch, LeMaster, LaMaster, Kimberlin Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.indiana.counties.scott/2124/mb.ashx Message Board Post: This is an article that was sent to me, I thought others researching these lines would be interested. There is a title page, but no info. as to who wrote it. (Gladding) GLADDEN London to Indiana with the Whitlatches, LeMasters and Kimberlins It was in the very early seventeen hundreds or late sixteen hundreds when Great Britain was in a upheaval over the King dictating the religion that was practiced in the United Kingdom. In addition taxes was being increased at a tremendous pace. A pace that few people were willing to bear. There had to be a better way. There were two families that had lived in London as neighbors for many years. How many years? It is believed that sence Gladden was a celtic name that they went to England when the celts invaded the islands. Whitlatch being a German name it is believed that they went to England during one of the invasions from Europe. That could have been in the twelve or thirteen hundreds. There is no record, but it was long enough that the families were uneasy about being separated. At the same time they were not willing to continue to pay the existant taxes and not be able to worship God as they pleased. So they talked and they planed. Finily they desided to take a ship to the New World, and they did. The caught a ship to Virginia and there the Gladdens and the Whitlatches made their home. The record in Virginia shows that the Gladdens got involved in politics, as well as their new friends that they had met, the LeMasters and their old friends the Whitlatchs. Some of the LeMast! er family and the Gladden family was aquianted with the George Washington Administration. Involved to the extent that Geroge Washington borrowed money from them to buy some real estate and the mortgage was recorded in the courthouse in Fairfax Co., Virginia. Please, notice that the name has changed now to Gladden. The story is that when the Gladdens arrived in America there were no schools available to them and the Gladdens, after a generation, forgot how to spell their name. After the American clang had developed to the point that Gladding had turned to Gladden. Therefore the Gladding Family had a new name because when the teacher ask the Gladding children for their name they pronounced it Gladden, from then to now the name is spelled Gladden. In Virginia not only did the Gladdens and the Whitlatches stay together but they picked up some more friends. The new friends were the LeMasters who were French, and the Kimberlins who were the first settlers in Scott Co., Indiana. The next generation is headed by Jesse LeMaster, a French Huguenot, he is thought to be in the first battle of the Revolution, in the Battle of Point Pleasant, Oct. 10, 1774. Jesse had two brothers, Hugh and Zachariah. One of them married Elizabeth Sitler who was a sister of Catherine who was the wife of Jesse LeMaster. The next generation back, on Jesse's wife's side, was Mathias Sitler born in Germany and was responsible for the story of the Baltimore Fortune. That story can not be proven and will not take up a lot of space here. The story is that in 1776 Mathias was angry with his daughter Catherine over religion and leased away some land in Baltimore for 99 years to keep her from having it. It ended up that when Baltimore grew the city grew over the land and the title to the land was lost. That story may or my not be true. It is true though, that Mathias was banished from Germany due to his religious views, along with his brother John. Mathias left Germany for America and took the oath of allegiance in 1778; this shows that England wasn't the only place that there was religious problems in Europe. (Note: this is the beginning of another page. This was sent to me by someone, could have been pages between) Alexander Gladden, at Lexington, Indiana; age 19; blue eyes; light hair; ht. 5'11"; occupation farmer. Elijah Gladden; at Lexington, Indiana; age 19 years, blue eyes; light hair; ht. 5'10"; fair complection, occupation farmer. Jefferson Gladden; age 20; entered at Madison, Indiana on June 8, 1862. In going through the information in this story we can find some discrepancies in dates. That is due to getting the information from several different sources. The differences though aren't that important to the story. Even more important is how and when these families came all the way from England and France to American and what caused them to stay together in England, Maryland, Virginia, Penn. And the wilderness of what is now Indiana. Even today you can find those same families living in Scott Co., Indiana as neighbors, friends and relativies. As a matter of fact any time you find tow of those names you can be assured that they are relativies and friends. We are sure there is more to this story and we will continue to try to gather information as time allows. We know that there were Gladdens that landed in New York but to date there is no trace of them after they landed. That could be interesting sence the story is that he was some kind of nobleman. So as we gather more information it may tell us more about our past. If anyone that reads this has information that fits our story or adds to the truth of the history of the Gladdens, Whitlatches, Kimberlins or LeMasters. Please get in touch with one of the Gladdens in Scott Co., Indiana so that we can put that information with this when we do the next writing. The following is information that was put together by Elijah A. Gladden in 1923, so of Alexander Gladden. "Many years ago there lived in Green Co., Pennsylvania, three families, Gladdens, Whitlatchs and Smiths. The Gladdens and the Whitlatchs were dissatisfied with the locak government and the rough and hilly land and most of them determined to go to Indiana where Grandfather Kimberlin had gone twenty six years before. They spent about two weeks of March 1831 getting ready to start by the first of April. When every thing was ready they assembled on the bank of the Monogahea River at Jefferson where a large croud had gathered to bid them "Good by" One of the boys sang "On Monogahea's Stormy Banks We Stand and Cast Our Wistful Eyes to Indiana's Fair and Happy Land Where Uncle Sam's Possessions Lie" Then one of the boys sang a very patriotic song about the battle between the battleships Hornet, American and Peacock British. When the boat was ready to start they all sang "The Star Spangle Banner" The boat left the rocky shores destined never again to see any of those left behind except Aunt Ruth who in 1876, fourty five years later visited her sister and brothers for a few days. Their meeting was a joyous one and long remembered by those who witnessed it. On the morning of the fourteenth the sun rose with every scriptural sign of bad weather before night. All was hustle and hurry to get breakfast over so as to get an early start down the river. White fleecy clouds continued to form and pass overhead until about two oclock when there was heard a low rumble of thunder in the west and the sky became suddenly overcast and the storm was near. The boatmen in charge ordered the women and children to the cabin and turned the boat to the northshore where a buyou entered the river and formed a good harbor as there was small timber growing along the bank and a high bluff along the west. No safer harbor could be found for a small boat could harbor here. After a mighty effort by the man at the paddles the boat glided smoothly into the harbor just as the first ripple appeared on the surface of the river. The boat was soon fastened to small trees along the bank of the bayou. The storm broke with all its fury and lasted about thirty m! inutes. While lasting the women gathered the small children in the cabin and Sarah Gladden had offered a sincere prayer for the safety of all. As she offered her prayer she thought who stiled the waves on Lake Galilee and too courage and comfort. As the storm had new ceased the children were allowed to go out on the deck they soon came running back crying out "Oh mother, come and see God's Promise" in the sky for the rainbow as there in all its seven colors, ever again to remind Him if His promise to not destroy the world again by water. Everything being wet the decided to stay all night in the bayou and take an early start in the morning. So they were then a day behind time. The next morning the sun rose clear and the boat was soon on its way down the river again. They concluded to get a tow boat that was going down the river, to pull them whereby they gained a day and were again on time. When they got to Madison they spent one hour getting things to go to their houses. As it was now evening they went only a few minles further down the river before going to the shore for the night. When the children learned that this would be their last night on the boat they were so excited they would hardly go to bed. When time came for them to go. For tomorrow they see their old great-grandfather and great-grandmother whom they had never seen before. The next morning they were all up bright and early and were soon on their way down the river to andes Landing which they reached at 10:00 a.m. Grandfather and his sons had brought four wagons. Three of the wagons were drawn by horses and the other was drawn by a large yoke of oxen. They unloaded the things out of the boat and then they had dinner in pioneer style. After dinner they loaded the things in three of the wagons and in the fourth wagon, that grandfather drove, grandmother, mother and her five children rode. The road was bumpy but no one complained for they had reached the promised land and were happy. The reached grandfather's home about four o'clock that afternoon. This was the first house built in Scott County, Indiana. It was built of logs, twenty four feet square, port holes on all sides and a log partition and an eight foot fire place with a mud and stick chimney. As they gathered together that first night in the new country they thought of Aunt Ruth who could not come because her husband did not want to come and Sarah thought of her little boy left behind beneath the sod in the Monogahea Valley" (Notes: I only have three pages of this, it seems to me like there was more. I left the spelling and grammar errors just as they were as much as I could, my computer made some corrections on it's own.
