I am researching John Deremiah Sr. who was born ca 1744, enlisted at Fort Pitt in 1777, who received land in Hardin Co., KY, and lived there by 1790. He married widow Mary Ann (Ashby) Rude on 18 Aug 1791 in Hardin Co., KY. (Does anyone know who the John Deremiah was who married Hannah Ashcraft in 1789 in Hardin Co., KY?) In 1810, John Deremiah Sr. and his wife Mary Ann lived in Grayson Co., KY, per census. Between 1810-1820, John and Mary Ann moved to Washington Co., IN. He applied for his Rev War pension in 1819 and appears as a head of household on the 1820 census. Mary Ann was alive at this time, but must have died between 1820-1830. On the 1830 census, John Deremiah Sr. is living with John Deremiah Jr. Would like to make contact with other Deremiah researchers to compare notes. I descend from John Deremiah's wife Mary Ann (Ashby) Rude and her first husband Jesse Rude. --Helen Graves
