hi netta. the time period is up to about 1830, so the dates are pretty vague. what i do know is that peter watson was born in 1810 in kentucky, and had moved to clay county, arkansas by 1833. it is possible that he had a brother named tarlton/tarleton/talton (no dates) who married mary j. ____ and had two sons, john and william, before also moving to clay county where they had more children. both peter and tarlton were missionary baptist preachers. it is also possible that peter's father was named william, as that was what he named his first son (b. 1833, AR). just yesterday i found out about the possible link between peter and tarlton, so thought that might catch someone's eye. scot -----Original Message----- From: netta1@bellsouth.net To: kyhender@rootsweb.com Sent: Thu, 15 Feb 2007 8:12 AM Subject: [KYHENDER] Watson Hello Scot, Welcome to the Henderson County Mailing List.

Looking at the 1810 Census for Henderson County, I found the following: Watson, Daniel had (2) sons age 10 and under Watson, Peter had (1) son age 10 and under Watson, Tarlton had (2) sons age 10 and under Watson, William had (1) son age 10 and under There are no marriage listings prior to 1810 in microfilmed records. However, a list was found in Book A that covered marriages performed by Rev. James M. Gready in 1806, 1807, 1808 and 1809, but there is no listing of a Watson male being married before 1810 in Henderson County. Checked Starling's History for your Watson group and there wasn't any listing for Peter or Tarleton Watson. I'm sorry, I don't know what else to try. Maybe these wonderful researchers on the list can help you more.
