Would like to share info with Mattingly researchers to tie up some loose ends. Especially descendants of the following Mattingly marriages: John Mattingly marriage to Charlotte McGill, Union County, KY on 26 December, 1821. Believe issue to be Stephen Mattingly and James Mattingly. WHAT HAPPEN TO CHARLOTTE MCGILL? Suspect death of the above Charlotte McGill before 1828. Believe the above John Mattingly remarried to Sarah Hart in Union County, KY on 11 August, 1828. 10 Children born to this marriage (Mary Jane, Julian, John Rowan, Robert Lewis, Lud Churchill, Armstead L., William Thomas, Charles Gipson, Sarah Elizabeth and George Loagan). This John Mattingly died July, 1850. Sarah Hart remarried a James Hall 24 April, 1853 at St Vincents. Believe the above John Mattingly was a son of Jeremiah Mattingly and Sarah Shanks. There is another John Mattingly who married a Nancy Lay June, 1822 in Union County, KY. I have tracked him to Lewis County, Missouri where he died on 29 December, 1873. Children born to this marriage (Isabella (Briscoe), Samuel Davis, Mary A.(1st Carnegy, 2nd Moore), Katherine (Agee), Jane (Ashbury)). WHO ARE THE PARENTS OF THIS JOHN MATTINGLY? Chuck Osborne North Canton, Ohio

Greetings, I'm trying to track down information on a bit of oral history. My family says there was an old MURPHY school run on the eastern edges of Henderson Co. (read: near Daviess Co). My MURPHY's descend from Ed. Wm. MURPHY who lived in Reed/Stanley, KY. I was told these schools were great for keeping lists like students, their parents and other geneaological tidbits. Would this stuff be housed in the County archives now do you think? Tks, DJMurphy Louisville, KY DJMurphy79@aol.com

Such a small world, isn't it? I was born and raised in Evansville, IN, and now reside in CA also! I have lots of roots in Henderson Co., too. My great grandpa was from Henderson Co., buried in Oak Hill in Evansville. It's amazing how much you CAN find on the Internet about places and people of your roots. Just wanted to say 'hi' also!

Hello, My grandparents came from Henderson County. Benjamin Williams HOSKINS and Lucy Clements BURSHEAR/S. His parents were Charles and Susan F (WILLIAMS) HOSKINS. Ben was born 1849, Lucy born 1859. They were married 1879 in Henderson Co.. Lucy had a sister, Joanne who married Ben Utley. Any of these names sound familiar? If so, would love to hear from you. Becky

Betty saw your reply to someone on KYHENDER and just wanted to say hi, I was also born and raise in Henderson and now live in California and do most of my research on the internet and mail, but every year I get to go home and when I do I get a little done. Just wanted to say hi to another Kentuckian transplanted in Calif.

To VA, I saw your replay to Judith in which you stated you live in Evansville, IN across from Henderson, KY. I know the area well. I was born in Evansville and grew up in IN and KY. I have been trying to find the location where my parents got married so I could obtain a copy of their marriage records. Have not been successful. Do you belong to the Genealogy Societies in your area and do know if anyone would be willing to look something up for me? My parents are: William Carson Coley and Catherine Porter both from Henderson, KY. Married June or July 25, 1922 I live in California now and am doing my research mostly by mail. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. Betty

I am searching for information on Hayden Woodring. He married Elsie Marvin Oakley in 1918. Hayden was born in 1896 and died in 1958. I have been told that he was an electrical engineer. I know that Elsie and Hayden lived in Henderson, KY and are buried in the Roselawn cemetery. I remember going to visit Elsie, but Hayden had already past away. I believe his father's name is Frank and his mother's name was Nora Ashbridge. Frank's father's name was Gabriel. But I have no proof. My great uncle, the son of Hayden and Elsie, can not remember any details. Please help me if you can. Thank you.

I know that with my ISP the messages are deleted from the ISP server *only* if the whole batch is delivered successfully at one time. If I receive 20 messages and for some reason my modem disconnects or there's a glitch in the midst of downloading them, say at message 15, the next time I download more mail, I get duplicates of the 15 messages already delivered from the last batch, plus the 5 that never made it. This is preferable to having the last 5 deleted at the ISP server before delivery. Maybe that's what's happening now and then? Regards, Terri

Hi Bill, Thanks for the info. Virginia

Hi Virginia, As I recall, the library opens at 9:00 am (not sure of the closing hours ) and the genealogy room is always open when the library is open (even on Sundays). There is a gentleman that is usually there at one of the microfilm readers by the name of Mister Blue. He was the one that compiled the map, and information, of Henderson County cemeteries. It's quite comprehensive, even showing old cemeteries on farms throughout the county. I made a trip to Henderson last October to do some research (I grew up in Henderson. I now live in South Carolina) and I purchased the map. You can also purchase it through the Henderson County Genealogy Society (on-line). It is quite inexpensive . . . $5.00 and a very good investment that you may consider. If I can be of any further help please let me know. Bill Chase

Hi Judith, Thank you for the offer of a lookup. I live in Evansville, IN just across the river from Henderson, just never have been to their library. Plan to do that soon. VA

I am searching for the burial place of my Great Grandfather, John G. Fessenger. He died at Geneva, Ky. April 9, 1906. (This is Henderson Co. I hope.) Being in California it is hard for me to travel to check records. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Anne Lockwood Roweenaa@prodigy.net

Virginia, I live in California and go home to Henderson every year and would just like to add that if you get to the library you will most likely see a little man sitting at a viewer and his name is James Blue. He has written a few record books, death, cemetery plots etc, he loves to help people and if you have any questions he is always willing to help. I have all of these books and more if you would like for me to look up anything for you let me know.

Virginia, I can't tell you the hours, but I can tell you the ladies there are the nicest most gracious ladies I have met in a long time. Guess it is the "Old South" hospitality. We were there last August. They are very helpful. It isn't exactly a genealogy room. More like a corner, but full of great information! Enjoy the trip. It is such beautiful country with beautiful people too. Regards, Judith > Couyld you please answer a question about the Henderson Library?
