Searching for CHAMBERS/DUGGER/SINCLAIR/DICKERSON

Hello, Just saw your post to the KYLINCOL-L regarding Thomas Pitman and his service under George Rogers Clark. He is my 4th greatgrandfather. I descend as follows: Thomas, Margaret who married Jeremiah Owens, Elizabeth Owens who married Vernon Alexander Wheat, Richard Menfee Wheat, Alexander Page Wheat, Albert Lorain Wheat, and Albert Jonathan Wheat (me). I know next to nothing about Thomas, his ancestors, and descendants, except for the Wheat descendants about whom I know a lot. I am looking to add to my knowledge of Thomas, his siblings, ancestors and descendants. Can anyone help in this regard? Does anyone know of a Pitman mail list or perhaps Pitman lineage web pages? I will gladly share my information on the Pitman/Owens/Wheat descendants. Jack

Noticed the surname Barnett, which mentioned wanting info on the Robert Barnett who was served under Rogers Clark Exp. Is this Robert Barnett the one married to Elizabeth Condit? Have a little info on the Barnett's and the Lyons families as they relate to my RICHARD SINNETT. Candee

WILLIAM (William was brother to Thomas) GEORGE ROGERS CLARK AND HIS MEN -MILITARY RECORDS, 1778-1784 Compiled by Margery Heberling Harding The Kentucky Historical Society Frankfort.

There were Berry and Pitmans that intermarried with The Clevengers of MacCoupin County, Illinois which brings me to the third and most exciting connection the desc. of men who were in Rogers- Clark expedition. You see I posted the following to the Lincoln County web-- Book 6 page 192: Know all men by these presents that I, Richard SINNETT of Mercer County & State of Kentucky have nominated and appointed and by these presents do nominate, appoint and ordain Jesse Hale of Mercer Kentucky my lawful Attorney for me and in my name to apply for and recover all such land and lands and other estate which I am entitled to for my services as a soldier in Captain Isaac Taylors Company in Cols. John Montgomery's Regiment Commanded by General George Rogers Clark on an Expedition to Illinois in the year 1779. Also all such estate as I may be entitled to as assignee of Patrick Carmichael who was also a soldier at the same time in the same Regiment and do hereby authorize my said Attorney to proceed the same by any and all reasonable and careful ways as to my said attorney may seem proper and right hereby ratifying and confirming whatever my said Attorney shall do in the premisses as fully and completely asif I myself had down and performed the same in my own proper person. In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name and affixed my seal this 29th day of January 1807. Richard (R his mark) Sinnett Teste Tho.

Libby: I noticed that you had a GREEN in your surnames. I am looking for any information on a Martin Green b. 1790's that married a Mahala Wood in Mercer Co., Ky. in 1812. It is possible that his father was John Green - don't have mothers name. Martin & Mahala had at lease one child, William Wallace b. 1825 and adopted in 1827 by Thomas Jack. Martin had died by this time and Mahala remarried. Does this fit in with any of your information. Would love to share. Pamela K. Alves palves@henderson.net

Hi all, When my gggrandfather died he left some land to my ggrandmother in Lincoln County. I know it is in Lincoln county because I found a letter in her belongings that began Dear Cousin,... and mentions Brodhead many times. It is signed Lila Greene, which is I suppose to be her married name. My gggrandfather: 1. WILLIAM WALLACE WHITAKER was born 31 Dec 1823 in Buffalo, New York, and died 11 May 1904 in Alton, Kansas. He married LAURA CHANDLER. I found him on the 1860 Mitchell County Iowa County Census page. He didn't show up in Kansas until 1886. Were there homesteader land grants in Lincoln County in th 1870's. How would I locate the land inherited by my ggrandmother, ALICE CORDILIA WHITAKER in 1904; and possibly find out the birth record of FRANK CLARK WHITAKER born 6 Jun 1863, , perhaps in Lincoln County. Were the boundaries of Lincoln County hummungous during that period? Many thanks for reading and any help. Christina
