My Great Great Grandfather was John Caudle born 1818 in Madison Co. Ky.Found marriage certficate for John Coddle Marring and Eliza Jane Agee in 1863.Were in the 1870 census with 3 children in Madison Co. Ky.In 1880 they were living in Owen Co. Ky. with 8 children.Do you think this is the same Coddle?

Milton Walker was in Perry County in 1860, Estill County in 1870, and in Letcher County in 1880 with a wife named Isabella. The age of the children would suggest they were married circa 1872. Does anyone have record of this marriage? Regards, Bob Walker Genealogy Page: http://members.aol.com/rwa5352802 War of 1812 Page: http://members.aol.com/rwa5352802/ftmeigs

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: WEBB, BOONE, HALLER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/FBB.2ACE/917.1 Message Board Post: Someone was kind enough to repsond and inform me that Kentucky was not a state in 1750 and therefore there were no marriage records. I well aware of that. However, that was not my question - I wanted to know what it acutally says in the article and if the author cites any sources. Benjamin WEBB b. 1732 s/o John WEBB and Mary BOONE, almost certainly did not mary a Rebecca BOONE. In fact he was not disowned by the Quakers as recorded in the Exeter MM until 1757 and thus his marriage if it occurred earlier would have resulted in a marriage record or in testimonly against him similar to that of several of his siblings who were also disowned. He was married to Rebecca MATTHEWS by 1764 and she was still living in 1804 as proven by court records. This error with regards to his marriage to a BOONE almost certainly has in roots in the research of Joseph WEBB who was thought to be the son of Samuel WEBB and Sarah HALLER of Orange Co., IN which has since been disproven. Samuel WEBB is thought to have been the son of Benjamin WEBB. However, there is no known Rebecca BOONE in Berks County at the time nor is there any Berks County records which identifies any BOONE as the wife of Benjamin WEBB. The only records that identify his wife are those that identify Mary MATTHEWS. My interest in trying to understand how this error came into being is see if there is some other explantion. I would like to try and figure out how the author arrived at what is obviously an estimated marriage date. To my knowledge this article is the only known reference to a specific date. Even if it is in error as I believe then how did the author arrive at this conclusion? Was it based on the age of some suspected child of this marriage and if ! so who? Hence my desire to know what is actually in the article.
