That Jonathan Creech is known to me and is a different person. But of course that is another problem with searching for Creechs. Every generation repeats the same male names over and over until there are 10 3rd cousins with the same name and being in the same age range. It appears that my John Creech's marriage was never recorded. I guess there is also a small possibility he married in Arkansas since his first 2 children were born there, though that seems somewhat unlikely. Anyway, thanks again for the help.

It really is the only way you can keep track of all of the information you will be gathering over the years. And, it will provide you places to add in your documentation of things as they come to you. Here is some more census information on your family. I can now see that the children, Georgie B., Dwight E. (your father); James S. and Forshea that I have already given to you were the children of Violet DOCKERY. The census records only go up through 1930 so all these births are way past that cut off. You have stated that your g-grandfather, Hascue DOCKERY went to kill your g-grandmother BUT I STILL DON"T HAVE HER NAME FROM YOU!!!! From the story, this UNK. wife was pregnant with Violet Jewell DOCKERY. Violet's father was executed for the killing of Joe JENKINS and his wife and another person. On the 1930 Harlan Co. Fed. Census, there are these two listings which are both your family: Dwelling 34-36 - Dist. #2 DIXON, Dewey, head, 31, mar. at 20, b. KY; parents b. KY - coal miner . .Hannah, wife, 28, mar. at 17, b. KY; parents b. KY (she was a CREECH!!!) . .Clifford, son, 9, b. KY . .Elmer, son, 7,b. KY (per KBI b. 11-26-1921 in HC) . .Charline, dau, 6, b. KY (per KBI Charlsia b. 4-21-1924 in HC) . . Vicey, dau, 4 yrs 3 months, b. KY (per KBI Vina M. b. 1-7-1926 in HC) . .Mary, "sister", 15, single, b. KY CREECH, Mary Alice, niece, 9, single, b. KY; parents b. KY Regarding this Hannah CREECH, she was abt. 1903 and mar. 21 Mar 1916 to Dewey DIXON. She had many others brothers and sisters. Her parents were; Joseph CREECH b. Mar 21, 1878 in Harlan Co.; died Mar 8, 1948 ; mar. 1899 in Harlan Co. to Nancy CLOUD who was b. Dec. 1883 and was the dauther of James and Jane CLOUD. Getting you back yet another generation on Hannah CREECH's side, she was one of many children of: Martin CREECH b. Dec. 6, 1857 in Harlan Co.; d. Jul 19, 1936; mar. May 7, 1875 in Harlan Co. tp Patience WYNN, b. Sep 1, 1860; d. March 21, 1923. This is all very interesting because another person just today was looking for this same line. Hannah CREECH's father was Martin CREECH and Martin CREECH b. 1857 was a s/o the Rev. John H. CREECH, civil war vet b. Oct 9, 1833 in Harlan Co.; d. Jun 18, 1905; mar. June 4, 1854 to Mary Ann KILBURNE b. Jul 24, 1836; d. Aug 8, 1903. John H. was a s/o Elijah Lee CREECH and Sarah DAY. Next generation back is: Jonathan CREECH mar. to Polly ANGLIN. Back to the 1930 Harlan Co. Fed. census where living next dwelling is: Dwelling 33-35 CREECH, Joe, head, 52, mar. at 21, b. KY; parents b. KY - log woods timberman . .Nancy, wife, 44, mar. at 14, b.

He was on his way to kill my great grandmother who supposedly told him that she was pregnant, this would have been with my grandmother, Violet Jewel Dockery. Violet married Elmer Dixon who had six children all together. I was told two girls (probably twins) passed away at infancy. The children she gave birth to were Hannah Latrisha, named after her grandmother Hannah Creech who was married to Dewey Creech.I was told that one of the ladies that were shot and killed by Hascue was one of Hannah Creech's Aunts and that they were never aloud to discuss it. Violet also had Nancy, James Samuel who is passed and my father Dwight Dixon. I have seen different documentation with my fathers name as Elmer Dwight and then Dwight Elmer and with his birth date also at different dates. I was told that My grandfather, Elmer was very abusive to Violet and the children and that she left and left the children with him. I have never seen her an! d do not know if she is still living. Some of this info. I was able to piece together tonight. Sorry I was so vague, I was so nervous that someone actually knew about the murder. Thank you for your reply.
Hello to all, I have been searching for the exact parents of my husband's 3rd great-grandmother, Mary Creech. I have not found a record of her marriage to Campbell Thompson, SR but it should have occurred around 1841, probably in Lee Co, VA. Mary was born about 1823 according to census records. In 1820 there was an Elijah Scrich (Age 26-45) living in Lee County. In 1830 he was 40-50, also living in Lee Co. and had a daughter age 5-10. Again in 1840 he was 50-60, living in Western Dist of Lee Co. with a daughter age 20-30. Two other daughters near this age have disappeared from his family. Living next door was William Thompson, father of Campbell Thompson, SR. He had a son, age 20-30 living with him. Campbell Sr. and Mary Creech could possibly have married soon before or after 1840. By 1850, Campbell and Mary (both were listed as 28 years old) had 4 children; Sarah,8; Catharine,6; Clarinda,4; and Jackson ,11/12. Also living with them was Jesse Tharp, age 18,( who I believe was a cousin--Campbell Thompson's mother was Elizabeth Tharp. ) They were living next door to Campbell's parents, William C. Thompson and also to Elijah Creech, Age 70 who is remarried to Nancy, Age 40. On April 19, 1852 Campbell Thompson Sr. was found murdered according to the Lee Co. death records. The murder was never solved. In the following census, 1860, Mary has remarried to Jesse Tharp. Their marriage record in the Lee Co Court House says Mary was the daughter of "E & S Creech". I feel certain that Elijah Scrich and Elijah Creech are one and the same her father is the Elijah Scrich who was living next door to them in 1850 and 1860, but have no proof. Elijah Creech also had a daughter, Clarinda who was 19 in 1850. Mary and Campbell named a daughter Clarinda. Does anyone have any info on this Elijah Scrich/Creech and his wife's and children? I would appreciate any info that anyone has to offer.

Surnames: CREECH Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3AB.2ACI/6858.1.1.1.1.2.1 Message Board Post: Hello, Here is simply some census and other information on the murder story outlined in Elva NOLAN MORGANs posting. Although I am related to the CREECHs, I am not familiar with your family or this particular incident. You have provided NO dates or particulars that would make it easy to establish any time of a timeline. I am not really clear on the story you present. Here are some of my questions that could help others help you. l. Where and when were you born and what was YOUR name as you knew it? You state you have found out your maiden name was DIXON. Makes it sound as though you grew up with some other name and later in life discovered you were a DIXON. Is that correct? Provide the details. 2. Who was your birth mother and what was her full name and approx. age. Who was she married to? 3. This baby you write about whose name was Violet that you think was your grandmother. I am trying to figure out if she was a child of Joe JENKINS and his wife or was she a child of this Hascue DOCKERY and his wife. You don't say! 4. The story states that Hascue DOCKERY had only been married a matter of months but it does NOT give the name of his wife. Who was she? Do you know who her foster parents might have been? 4. You state you have learned of a relationship between yourself and Dewey and Hannah CREECH. Who were they? How old approx. where they? The shooting as presented took place in 1926. As of the 1920 Fed. Census, the Joe JENKINS family looked as follows: 1920 Harlan Co., KY - Harlan Dwelling 118-119 JENKINS, Joe, 25, b. kY - coal mine laborer . .Judie, wife, 24, b. KY . .Charley, 5, son, b. KY (Charley CREECH from Judy CREECH's first marriage) In further researching this, I found that Judie/Judy or sometimes listed as Julia was a CREECH. She was b. Mar 1895 and was the daughter of Daniel Boone CREECH and Delia BREWER. Judy CREECH mar. July 4, 1913 in Harlan Co. to a Roscoe CREECH b. Jul 1893 in Owsley Co. He died in 1917 in Harlan Co., KY. On the KBI, Charlie's birth is listed as: CREECH, Julie had Charlie CREECH on 8-7-1914 in Owsley Co., kY; Vol. 83, Cert 41392 There are a couple other births which "may or may not" be the same Judy/Julia CREECH mar. to Joe JENKINS. You would have to order their birth records. Judie CREECH had Roy JENKINS b. 6-8-1925 in Harlan Co., KY; Vol. 061, Cert 30330 Julia CREECH had Ruth JENKINS b. 7-14-1922 in Harlan Co.; KY; Vol. 067, Cert 33367 Regardless, there is a DEATH record which shows her death: Julia JENKINS died in Harlan Co., KY on 3-25-1926 at the age of 28 years, Vol. 014, Cert 06619 Assuming both she and her husband, Joe JENKINS were shot and killed by this Hascue DOCKERY, then all or some of these children had to be reared up by someone else. I could not locate a death record for Joe JENKINS. I could not locate a death record for Hascue DOCKERY in the correct year. I did locate one record and it might be him. You would have to order it from the State of KY to know for sure. DOCKERY, Hascue died 7-13-1928 in Lyon County, KY; Vol. 42, Cert 20638, at the age of 27 years NOTE: You can get these death records for one dollar each by going to the Google Search Engine and typing in: Chester+Ward You will see the particulars for ordering those records. Going backwards to the 1910, this would appear to be Judy CREECH with her family: 1910 Harlan Co., KY Dwelling 117 - Greasy Fork CREECH, Daniel, 67, mar. 3 times, mar. 2 yrs, b. kY; parents b. KY . Elizabeth, wife, 42, mar. 2 times, ma.r. 2 yrs, 5 born; 5 living, b. KY; parents b.

I found these births which may or may not have a darn thing to do with your story.: From the KBI: Violet DOCKERY had in Harlan Co.: DIXON, Georgie B. b. 11-16-1942 DIXON, Forshea b. 1-18-1944 DIXON, James S. b. 2-9-1950 DIXON, Dwight E. b. 10-20-1951 Perhaps if you come back to your original query and answer some of the questions I posed by responding to my posting, maybe we can find out a little more.

The Mary d/o John Kilbourne (who was probably s/o Martin) does seem the right age. I had searched ancestry's census database but not found her for some reason. The sources listed by Lillian Creech in her book, Arthur Creech and his sister Stella, were the cousins of my grandfather that I mentioned, and with whom I both corresponded and met in person before their deaths. I do not really remember if they believed Mary Kilbourne to be John Creech's wife based upon family knowledge or research. Regarding the place of his marriage to her, I have personally extracted Creech marriages at the Harlan courthouse 25 years ago, and also searched the printed transcriptions of others and failed to find that marriage in Harlan County. So Lee County, Virginia, the home of the Kilournes would seem more likely, although with some ministers not necessarily having registered all their marriages sometimes explains the existence of no record. I will try to research any will/probate records for that John Kilbourne when I have the opportunity, so maybe that will verify the marriage. Thank you again for taking the time to convey that information. Your distant Creech cousin

John H. CREECH (s/o Elijah Lee CREECH and Sarah DAY) was a Corp. Company H, 47th KY Inf. in the Civil War. He was a teacher, farmer, carpenter, surveyor and veterinarian b. Oct 9, 1833 in Harlan Co.; married June 1854 in Harlan Co. to Mary Ann KILBURNE b. July 24, 1836 in Harlan Co.; died Aug 8, 1903." No parents for her are listed. An additional note states some of her information was researched by Arthur CREECH, Stella CREECH FIELDS and Lydia CREECH SHEPARD. Twelve childen are listed for John H. beginning with a William A. b. Aug 1855 and ending with John D. b. Jun 1880. I also see that Frances Y. DUNHAM in her annotated 1850 shows that in that same year of 1854, John H. married in Lee Co. (no state shown) to a Mary SMITH. On the 1850 Harlan Co., John H. is listed with his family and was 16 years of age. On the 1860 Harlan Co., he shows up as follows: Dwelling 828-828 CREECH, John H., 29, b. KY . .Mary Ann, 24 . .Martin, 4, b. KY Now I see the problem with their being two John CREECH's and the apparent corrrect one would be living next to his parents, Elijah and Sarah DAY CREECH as follows: Dwelling 775-775 CREECH, John, 25, b. kY . .Mary, 21, b.

I don't see a marriage in Lee Co., VA between this Mary and John CREECH. This is from a book of transcribed Lee Co., VA marriages I have. In the 1850 Lee Co., VA Fed.

VA Although there were several KILBOURNE living in Lee Co. as of the 1850 and one living right next to a CREECH family, the only family with a Mary is listed above. You might want to check to see what on line listings under the main Harlan Co. website that Elva NOLAN MORGAN may have on line that could confirm the 1854 marriage between this John or John H. CREECH and Mary KILBOURNE, etc. spellings. Further clarifying that John H. CREECH with the wife, Mary and son, Martin on the 1860 Harlan Co., here is that family as of the 1870 with annotations from the transcribed census sold by Janette and Gertrude NOLAN: Dwelling 65-65 CREECH, John, 35, b. KY (s/o Thomas and Celia HARRISON CREECH d. 24 Mar 1905; mar. 1855) . .Mary, 33, b. kY (d/o David and Sarah BAILEY SMITH; d. 1908) . .Martin, 14, b. KY (b. 4 Dec. 1857; d. 19 Jul 1937; mar. 1875 in Harlan to Patience Elizabeth WyNN, d/o Josiah and Mary KELLY WYNN) The other John CREECH family who was the s/o Eliah Lee shows up as follows: Dwelling 36-36 CREECH, John, 36, b.

John Creech, son of Elijah Creech and Sally Day. He was born in 1833 and married in the 1850s. The 1860 Census indicates his wife's name as Mary and that 2 of his 3 children then had been born in Arkansas before the family returned to Kentucky. Some family trees indicate his wife as Mary Ann Smith. However about 20 years ago when I started my family tree research, my grandfather's cousin said that she was a Kilburn. I have been unable to find a suitable Kilburn/Kilbourne girl of the appropriate age in the 1850 census for Kentucky or Virginia, including the most likely family of Martin Kilbourne. Any information on this would be appreciated.

Attested by James Johnson and John Roark. I know that John ROARK ( 1792-1844) and Nancy SLOAN had a daughter Mary- could this be Polly? They have one other daughter who I have never accounted for- could this be Patsey (Martha?)? Any ideas? Nancy is said to be the daughter of Thomas SLOAN and Barthena BROCK.
