JOHN A.8 JARBOE (ROBERT7, JOHN BAPTIST6, HENRY5, HENRY4, HENRY3, JOHN2, JARBOE/JABOT/GERBER/GERBAUT1) was born December 14, 1809 in Kentucky, and died Aft. 1860 in Texas. He married ELMINA KIRTLEY December 21, 1829 in Green Co., now Taylor Co., Ky, daughter of WILLIAM KIRTLEY and SARAH LEWIS. She was born in Kentucky, she is in 1860 Census - Grayson Co., TX. Notes for JOHN A. JARBOE: John A Jarboe had a daughter named Nancy Jane that married Robert Milton Marshall. In 1852 Robert Milton and Nancy joined a wagon train in Greene County Kentucky that included many families from surrounding counties. Also on that train were several Jarboes,including John A and Elmira Jarboe. Thier journey to Texas took three months.The trip was filled with many exciting and perilous adventures.They had problems along the way with Indians, sickness, flooding,and even a tornado. Many of them, including Robert Milton and Nancy Jane stopped in Kentucky Town, Texas [about fifteen miles from Sherman]. The remainder traveled on to Wise County Texas.Those that went to Wise County were under constant attack by Kiowa and Comanche Indians.It got so bad that several of the Kentucky Town group [including a couple of Jarboe boy's had to go to Wise County and help rescue some kinfolks surrounded by attacking Indians. During The Coval War Robert Milton and two Jarboe's joined the confederate army and served until the end of the war.In the meantime the notorious William Quantrill decided to make Kentuckytown his winter headquarters. In his group were such notable characters as Jesse and Frank Janes, some of the Youngers,and Bloody Bill Anderson. There are several old history books in this county that tells of the goings on of this rough bunch of people. Nancy Jane died at the close of the war in 1865. We found her tombstone still intact in a grove of trees in the middle of a farmers field about three miles from what's left of Kentuckytown .My ggrandfather John Thomas Marshall is the son of Robert and Nancy. We found a hill not to far from there there is still known as Jarboe Hill. ====================================================== 2nd Husband Of Webb/widower With 9 Children; Probate Court Minutes, Vol. H, page 144, 145 & 245 Grayson Co., TX:; 1871 - RM Marshall gdn for his infant child by 1st marriag to Nancy J.

Notes for NANCY JANE JARBOE: Posted by Jerry Owen <ebsinc@texoma.net> on Sun, 08 Aug 1999, in response to Marshalls, posted by Allen on Sun, 08 Aug 1999 Surname: Marshall Murphy Owen, Jarboe I live in Grayson County Tx and Robert Milton Marshall is my Gggrandfather.His son by Nancy Jane Jarboe by the name of John Thomas Marshall was my greatgrandfather. My grandmother was Edna Marshall. Robert Milton came to Grayson County in 1852/53. My understanding is that he and Nancy Jane traveled with a wagon train that contained several Greene County Kentucky families including Roberts father Thomas Marshall and his mother and Nancy Jane's parents John A Jarboe and Elmira Kirtley Jarboe. There were also other brothers and sisters of Roberts and Nancy's on the trip. It is my understanding that the wagon train had originated in another County and was under the charge of Newt Yowell as wagonmaster. There are Yowell descendents still living in Grayson County.The trip was a long and hazardous one that involved swollen rivers, tornadoes, Iindian trouble,and sicknesses. Apparently several members of the wagon train decided to stop in Kentuckytown Grayson County. This group included Robert Milton and the Jarboe family. Thomas Marshall and his other children decided to travel on to Wise County TX. Unfortunately at that time the Commanches and Kiowas were ravaging that area. After many close calls and fierce Indian battles Thomas and family moved to Grayson County. I beleive that George Baker was in that group. Fortunately for all of us us there are some good Marshall histories available with tons of information. I will be glad to share what I have and if I don't have it will be glad to point you towards someone else who might. Actually we have been quite anxious to learn more about Geotge Baker and his descendants.Look forward to exchangeing information with you.
