Candy, I had never really looked at these associations before. On CD " Early Kentucky Records" I found. Scott Co. Will Book A Sterett, James, settlement. Nov. 1794. John Sterett, Admr. Could this have been our John? He would only have been 15.Do you think James was his father or brother? Was Sarah that married Robert Hogg his sister? Niece? Woodford Co. Will Book B Wilson, Joseph. Jan 13, 1800. Wife Sarah. Child John and Samuel. Step daughter Peggy Sterett alias Peggy McCleland, Polly McCleland. Gr. child: (son Samuel's) Joseph, Peggy, John, Samuel, Sarah. Ex; wife, son-in-law John Sterett. Who was this John? In Shelby Co. Mary Boyd m. David(Daniel) McClelland Mar 7, 1799 & Jane Boyd m. Joseph McClelland July 12, 1815. I just sent selected data below if you want full census whatever on anyone let me know. Looking at the 1850 Hancock Co. Census HH 138 Robert Hogg 67 PA Elizabeth 55 NC ( Hayden m. Aug 25, 1842) Robert had married Sarah Sterett May 26, 1803, Scott Co., KY. Do you Know how she was kin to John Sterett? HH 140 John Sterett 70 VA Polly 50 KY (Haynes m. Dec1, 1845) HH 143 Baird Sterett 34 KY HH 144 William G. Boyd 66 VA Cynthia E. 41 ( was she a Wife or Daughter ?) William G. Boyd m. Shannon, Nancy Nov. 20, 1805, Shelby Co., KY He then married Jane Leggett Newland Aug 7, 1819, Shelby Co., KY.She was widow of Robert Newland. Living in Wm.'s house in 1850 James S. Newland 33, I assume his stepson. I hope you can make sense of these ramblings.
