    3. Hello, I am looking for information on a Kincheloe from Muhlenberg County. Peter Kincheloe died there around 1830. His name is on the Rev. War marker in front of the Muhlenberg County Courthouse. Do you have any information on Mary Kincheloe's family?

    1. [KYMUHLEN] Sunday Afternoon Rocking
    2. From:   Jan, unicorn@sun-spot.com Déjà vu (from the Sunday Afternoon Rocking series) My husband and I sat in a restaurant casually enjoying an evening meal…when I saw him. My thoughts connected with those of thirty years past, and I stared in amazement at the back of the elderly gentleman passing me. He sat at a booth within my line of vision. A lady who was probably his daughter, another more than likely a granddaughter, sat with him. I fought with myself, wanting both to take a casual trip by the booth and look him in the eye, and wanting at the same time to maintain the illusion presented to me from the back of this man's head in passing, from his profile at the booth. The thin white hair was the same, the shape of the head the same. The build of the body almost exact, and the soft shuffling of feet past my table as I had so often heard it a lifetime ago. He was my grandfather…or he could so well be. When I saw him pause to publicly but quietly pray before his meal, I lowered my eyes in respect, both to his prayer and to a memory. When I saw him push a napkin into his collar before eating, tears flooded my eyes. Yes, he was indeed my grandfather, or could so well be. When we left the restaurant, I could not stand it…I had to look. No, he was not my grandfather. His eyes were brown but not the same. His smile was kind, but it was not my grandfather. I resisted an impulse to hug him, and thank him…for just a moment giving me the illusion that a long ago time had returned and a special person in my life was there again. I returned his smile, and went on my way. It has happened to me before. I have seen my "father" sitting in a hotel lobby of Chicago, glimpsed my "grandmother" strolling down a street…shamefully lowered my eyes when caught staring at "an uncle". For just a moment sometimes, strangers can unwittingly give us a glimpse of memories past and never realize that they are in fact, a mirror image in passing of a memory buried long ago in all but our hearts and minds. It has happened to me before. I have driven down a strange road, done a double take, and driven a bit more slowly past a house that reminds me of a long ago home place. For just a few moments, I could imagine I was in the same place of long ago, a place that no longer exists except in a heart. The landscape was not the same…but the house could be, and I painted the landscape around it with memory, and then was on my way. I have stood in an antique mall and run my hands gently over furniture like that I remember that beloved place. I have had my vision cloud for a space in time, and seen it sitting somewhere else, heard echoes of activity around me that took place long ago, returned to the present to slowly walk away. Sometimes the reminders are not from strangers at all. I never look at a cousin without seeing a photograph of a grandmother taken in her youth nearly one hundred years ago. I wonder sometimes if my cousin notices that at times I am slow responding to her questions or that I seem to be seeing someone else. I never see the back of my son's head without thinking of my father. He does not know I sit and watch sometimes as he crosses a room. A cousin once said to me, "Jan, you will never die as long as your daughter is in the world." and I know what they are seeing when they look at her is a long ago me. And far from being hurt by such reminders, it seems to bring a bit of comfort. Déjà vu.

    1. Re: [KYMUHLEN] 1910 census look up
    2. Hello, There was only one Jesse Rose in the 1910 census. This could be the one you're looking for even though the age is a little off: (This is from census extracts and does not contain household/family numbers.) P.31 of census; District 1, Central City, 11 May 1910 There were four Rose households listed next to each other: Rose, Nancy J. 45, widow, KY US US - 9c7a (Nancy had given birth to nine children and seven were living at that time); Ramond son 12 KY KY KY Jesse son 10 KY KY KY Foster son 07 KY KY KY Rose, Michael B. 37 1st marriage 5 years; KY KY KY Fannie M. wife 38 KY KY KY 2c2a Carry E. dau 04 KY KY KY William P. son 02 KY KY KY Rose, Green B. 62 1 m 39 yrs KY KY KY Martha E. wife 59 10c7a KY KY KY Luscian (sic) son 29 1m4 KY KY KY Mary dau 21 single KY KY KY Fronie d-in-l 25 1m4 KY KY KY 0c0a Analiza niece 45 single KY KY KY James brother 73 wd KY KY KY Rose, William C. 35 1m5 KY KY KY Mattie wife 31 1c1a KY KY KY Marjorie dau 4 KY KY KY ----------------------------------------- 1900 Muhlenberg County Census 42-42 - Rose, Charles B. b.

Rose s/o GB &NJ Rose - 04 Aug 1884 - 30 Jan 1901 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- If you determine that this is your Jessie and have questions I'll be glad to share. They are not my line. The Roses go back to Lenox Rose who died in Muhlenberg County in 1806. The Heltsleys have been traced back farther than that (but not by me). These families have a rich history in Muhlenberg County from its beginning. Dorann

    3. Such good folks on this list! In response to my inquiry about Thomas and Maggie Lucas MILLER I've received 1910 Muhlenberg County Census information on the family and Greens Chapel General Baptist Church Cemetery information on Thomas, Maggie and their child who died at 3-1/2, Mattie Marie, as well as a Rev. W.A. Miller (relation???). One person indicated that she didn't find the family in the 1900 census, although she said that there were a lot of Millers.... Does anyone have the 1920 census? I remember that my mother indicated that crippled maiden aunt lived with Thomas and Maggie in the late 1920s -- I don't know whose Aunt she was, however, and how long she lived with them, so she may or may not show up in the 1920 census. My mother thought she was great! (Unfortunately, I lost her name when I lost my papers in the flood.) Thank you for your help!

    2. Mary Becker
    3. Yes, an Evitts sort of did marry a Snodgrass - my grandmother was an EDWARDS whose mother was a SNODGRASS (Maude Mae) - my grandmother married an EVITTS. Who knows, there may be another one. I believe the Zachariah Evitts you mention is "my" Evitts :) Those of us researching the Evitts line seem to have narrowed it down to three - but we can't seem to get any farther back than Moses, Zachariah and another Moses.... Any help on this line would be appreciated. What is your SNODGRASS line? The farthest back mine goes is Jesse, I believe. Please send a tree if you have one. Mary K. mkbeck01@gwise.louisville.edu

    1. [KYMUHLEN] MILLER - census lookup request
    2. Linda L. Clements
    3. The discussion about Millers and the Miller Cemetery jogged my interest in trying to trace my mother's first husband, Garrett Miller, and his family. I lost most of my notes from my mother in a flood four years ago, and now find that I don't know Garrett's birth date, etc. (He died of tuberculosis in about 1939-40 in Phoenix -- leading to my mother later meeting my father in Phoenix, etc.....) My mother's mother's family also has, by marriage, Millers (from Tennessee and Virginia) and cousins from that branch of the family and I are trying to figure out whether there is any connection to Garrett's family. Garrett was born in Muhlenberg County in about 1904 to Thomas and Maggie Lucas MILLER. I do not have the birth or death dates or parents names for either of his parents. His brothers and sister were Allie, Nova, Ophus and Ray. Ophus was born December 27, 1902; I do not have the DOBs for the other family members. I would like to request a census lookup for the 1900 and/or 1910 and/or 1920 censuses for the Thomas MILLER family. The 1910 and 1920 census, in particular, would help me determine Garrett's birth date, and those of his siblings. Thank you for your help.

    1. Re: [KYMUHLEN] Miller Cemetery
    2. Richard, I just got online so someone may have provided you some of this or you possibly have it: It would be time-consuming to copy the names of the 271 cemeteries that have been copied in Muhlenberg County! You didn't indicate the period of time in which you are interested in burials. The oldest Millers I could find buried in the county were: SCOTT CEMEMTERY near Bremen Simon and Nancy Ann b. ca. 1780 GISH CEMETERY near Bremen Benjamin b. 1839 SHAVER CEMETERY near Bremen Thompson b. 1814 NEBO CEMETERY Wlilliam D. b. 1815 BRIER CREEK CEMETERY Isaac b. 1835 SHILOH CEMETERY Martin b. 1785 SALEM CEMETERY David b. 1820 ANTIOCH CEMETERY Isaac W. b. 1842 MILLER CEMETERY at Graham Children of John and Selia b.1846 & 1851 FOREST GROVE CEMETERY John b. 1832 EVERGREEN CEMETERY J.S. and M.E. b. 1848; W.T. b. 1847 In the 1810 Muhlenberg County Census there were the following Millers: Absalem (sic) and Frederick, ages 26-44 George, oldest - 45 or above Philip T. - youngest 16-25. I could not find a marriage for George Frederick Miller in Muhlenberg County. There were no marriages for anyone named Carvin. Could Carvin have been Garvin? I found the following during the time period you indicated: 1822 - Joseph Miller to Sarah Kemper 1824 - James Miller to Juliet McCleland 1831 - Stephen Miller to Elizabeth Drake No Carvin Brides but: 1822 Jane Garven to Daniel Kittinger 1826 Peggy Garvin to Leroy Davis 1833 - Elliza A. Garvin to T.R. Clark I know that there were Garvins in Christian County KY if you're looking for a Garvin marriage, but I don't have access to the marriages for that county. I did check Ohio County adjacent to Muhlenberg where there were loads of Millers but no George Fredericks. Perhaps you might be interested in: Muhlenberg County KY Deeds: Book 5.53. 11 Feb 1819 - John Noftsinger and Mary his wife sold to George F.

    1. [KYMUHLEN] Powderly Weaving House?
    2. Mary Becker
    3. Does anyone know how the "weaving house" at Powderly got started? It was always vaguely suggested in my family that some kind of "missionaries" or something (maybe from the government??) came to Muhlenberg and taught the women how to weave - I assume so the women could have some extra income or at least make rag rugs for themselves. BTW, the weaving house was directly across the street from my great-grandmother's house (Emma Lee Evitts, who was a lunchroom lady at Muhlenberg Central for years). Mary K.
