    3. The Jesse Lewis to Martha Nunn is one of mine. I wondered if this Robert was any relation to Jesse or not. I haven't really looked into that branch much, as Martha was a sister to my great grandmother. That particular bunch is a rough bunch to research as they moved around a lot and seemed to marry a lot. My great grandmother is about the only one of them that remained in place. Martha was married at least 3 times that I can tell, and according to my father, he thought she ran a house of "ill-repute" at one time. His family did not say much about Martha when he was growing up. His great grandmother lived with his family when she died and is buried in Barbourville City Cemetery in the Hughes Family plot.

    2. RESPONSE: Adding to my original response, here is the 1870 Laurel Co., KY Fed. Census: Dwelling 33 LEWIS, Robert H., 68, b. KY - farmer . .George M., 17, b. KY . .Robert G., 4, b. KY LEWIS, Jesse, 22, b. KY - farmer . .Martha A., 22, b. KY - keeping house . . Wm. H., one month, b. KY (b. May) If this is the same Robert H. LEWIS who remarried to a Jemima COLDWELL in 1863 in Laurel Co., something happened to her. I have no way of knowing; however, if this little Robert G., age 4 is from that marriage. Then a little later on, there is this marriage but with just the initials, I have no way to know if this again is Robert H.: LEWIS, R. H. to WIGGINS, Mary Ann on April 13, 1871 in Laurel Co., KY NOTE: Perhaps if you order the actual marriage records you could confirm or rule out if these are all the same person. Oh, now I am looking at the 1880 Laurel Co. Fed. Census. This is interesting. Dwelling 43 LEWIS, George, 27, b. KY; parents b. KY (b. 10-18-1852 in Laurel) . .Rachel M. (nee WIGGINS), wife, 24, b. KY; parents b. KY (mar. 1-31-1872 in Laurel) . . Robert, B (for BROTHER)., 14, b. KY; parents b. KY LEWIS, Mary LOGAN, "mother", 54, widow - married to Robert LEWIS. NOTE: I guess I do not quite understand why this Mary LOGAN LEWIS, age 54 would just be showing up and be listed as the mother of George, head of house, in this dwelling.

I have found them in Laurel County in 1830 through 1870 (Elizabeth died between 1860 and 1870) and Robert came to Mercer Co., Missouri, sometime after the 1870 census.

I do have this census and marriage information. As you can tell Abner Nelson was a very interesting person. I have been trying to unravel his story for years. My husband is a direct decendant from his line through his son James Green NELSON and Milinda Lucinda TAYLOR. Abner Nelson was born abt. 1793 in either VA or NC (some sources say Grayson, VA) and died 21 May 1880 in Knox, KY. He is buried in Liberty Cemetery in Knox, KY without a marker. Abner had three wives and sixteen children (to my knowledge). It is proported that he married a Lucy OSBORN on 4 May 1815 in Grayson, VA and they had: Nancy ca. 1827, Hiram ca. 1831, Isaac ca. 1834, Jonathan ca. 1836, & Sally ca. 1838. Between the move from Indiana to KY these children seem to vanish. Abner married second on 30 Dec 1830 in Ashe, NC to Nancy Elleanor VANOVER and they had: James Green 1839, Alvin 1841, Anna 1842, Lee 1846, William ca. 1848, Polly-Olly 1850 Wabash, Indiana, Rachel Ann 1852 Wabash, IND, and Mary b. ca. 1863 in Knox, KY. Abner married third Thursie Ann REYNOLDS on 02/03 Sep 1873 in Barboursville, Knox, KY and they had: Abner B. "Coon" NELSON Jr. 1874, and Ruth/Rutha K. NELSON 1876.

Yes, if this Olly is and I suspect she is the daughter of Abner Nelson; Rachel Ann NELSON wife of Franklin Gale BARTON would be her sister. Also, the James LOWE mentioned would be the husband of their other sister Anna NELSON. Green NELSON is actually James Green NELSON brother to Rachel, Anna, & Olly. There is another sister as well named Mary born circa 1863 at Lynn Camp, Knox, KY. I have no idea who she married or if she made it to adulthood.

Author: savasnia Surnames: NELSON, DISNEY Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.kentucky.counties.knox/1652.1713.1.2.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Thank you, I have that census info. I guess what I am trying to do is find some sort of confirmation that Polly-Olly-Anley daughter of Abner NELSON is the same individual who married John P. DISNEY. Also, it would be nice to correspond with some of her decendants. I have had a time trying to locate what became of Abner's children especially the daughters. I think I have most of them down now. I hope to find decendants. My husband is a direct decendant of Abner Nelson. Thanks! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

    1. [KYKNOX] Site updates
    2. Cassy Sommers
    3. I have been really slow posting on the Knox County site, but working hard behind the scenes. I have just added over 200 obituaries to the web site. With the help of a few kind souls the Knox County Death records should all be added to the site in about a month. I am looking for someone who has access to the 1954 and 1955 death records so we can add those. The World War I Draft Cards should be done soon after that and then I will finish the marriage records. These are my goals for the Knox County Site in this new year. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and we are all blessed with a Happy New Year.
