ESTATES: MOSES SKAGGS HEIRS, ESTATE CASE # 3871, GREEN CO., KY, 1836 Part 1 Contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by Lula (Hankins) Hunter [email protected] and Jemima Gee Morse [email protected] INTRODUCTION Green County, Kentucky Circuit Court in Chancery Jeremiah & Aaron Lewis } Complainants vs. Heirs and Admrs. of Moses Skaggs dec'd, } Defendants The Moses Skaggs Heirs Chancery Suit #3871 (MES) is a basis for genealogy of one branch of the early Skaggs, Whitt, Hankins, Harman, Thompson, Meredith, Mirady, Chriswell, White, Maloney, Mitchell, Beavers, Combs, Howell, Samples, Quary, Ellis, York Ratliff, Despain, Roark, Combs, Simpson, Blevins, Jones, Whitten, Lockhart, Cecil, Bruster, families in Kentucky and Virginia. Abstracts of copies of the depositions in this suit, published by Barbara Wright, have been available for several years through the Green County, Ky., Historical Society http://www.rootsweb.com/~kygreen/historical society.htm The following is a line-by-line transcript of the set of MES documents in the Green County, Ky court file, transcribed by Lula (Hankins) Hunter, who traces her descendancy to Elizabeth (Skaggs) Hankins. Filed in 1836, the suit was brought about forty years after the death of Moses Skaggs who died intestate and without children, possessed of a quantity of real & personal property. The Bill further stated that he left his only legal representatives at law, five brothers and four sisters namely: Henry, Richard, Charles, Jacob, John, Susannah, Lydia, Elizabeth, and Nancy. NOTE: Moses Skaggs' two brothers, Henry and Charles Skaggs, are further identified in a diary in which Henry and Charles' wives are identified as sisters to Archibald Thompson. Archibald Thompson, born in 1736, left a diary recording events in early Virginia and Kentucky history, including births and marriage records for his and allied families in the New River Valley and in old Lincoln Co., Ky. The diary is in the possession of an Archibald descendant in Monroe County, Ky., and a copy is in the William B. Harlan Memorial Library, Tompkinsville, Ky. Measuring about four-by-five inches, it is one-hundred pages and includes some loose papers. In late 1999, a color photo copy was made of the original diary, and a line-by-line transcript was made, which is now posted at Doug Moore's web site http://www.public.asu.edu/~moore/archibald/ CIRCUIT COURT CASE #3871 AARON & JEREMIAH LEWIS BILL SKAGGS heirs & Admrs.
