Surnames: McGary, Hinton, Vessels, Lyons Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/YAB.2ACI/4517 Message Board Post: I am trying to trace the descendants of William F. McGary (born 1805) who lived in the McQuady/Hardinsburg area. He married a Mary Ellen Hinton in 1835. They had a number of children (maybe eleven) and I have found a Henry McGary that married a Bertha Vessels and Hilary McGary that married a Margaret Lyons. Both Hilary and Henry were born around 1842 or 1843. The 1850 census shows William McGary with a son Henry and the 1860 census shows a Hilary with no Henry. Are they the same person? Are they two different sons of William McGary? Any help would be appreciated.
