There is a POSSIBLE match to your target - FRANK PATTERSON MOORMAN - residing in Ohio County, Kentucky, in 1900. Unfortunately, the birth dates don't quite match. [Ref: 1900 Census of Kentucky, Ohio County, Fordsville, ED 102, sheet 21 (stamped 63), stop 317 - See FRANK P. MOORMAN age 10, b. KY] If this is proves to be a match, his parents are JOHN THOMAS MOORMAN 1860 - 1941 and ANNA LAURA HAYNES (b. Jan 1870 KY?), and his grandfather is CHARLES PATTERSON MOORMAN. (Note the middle name of PATTERSON.) [Ref: Rootsweb.com WorldConnect Project, database titled, "Moorman, Echols, Newton, Lewis, & Allied".] The census records you cited indicate Frank married about 1916 in possibly Arkansas. His daughter, VIOLET TERESA (MOORMAN) BAILEY 1916 - 1996 was b. Arkansas, d. California. Good luck with your research. ----- Original Message ----- From: <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> To: <KYOHIO-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, May 27, 2009 11:22 PM Subject: [KYOHIO] Frank Patterson MOORMAN Author: susanpgunther...I am seeking information on Frank Patterson MOORMAN who was born in Kentucky on 16 September 1881.

Dear Ladies, I am sorry to be so long in replying, but I have just returned to work after the long weekend. I am delighted to find that Kim is so interested on cemetery preservation. I had no idea that our historic cemeteries were in danger until I started looking for the graves of my ancestors a few years ago. I have found several, but discovered that one had been plowed under years ago, one is in the middle of a road planned to connect a new development in Lexington, and another has been neglected to the extent that the gravestones are no longer visible! At least three locations had livestock trampling the graves and damaging the stones. There are many historic cemeteries in Kentucky that are endangered or have even been destroyed in the past due to negligence. Often times, the current owner of the land is not a descendant of those buried on the property, so they don’t have an interest in preservation. There are laws that were meant to protect the graves, but the laws are sometimes not enforced, or overlooked. Several counties have Cemetery Boards that have been established for the purpose of protecting small family cemeteries which are not maintained by an incorporated cemetery. Not every county has a board in place. The ones that do exist administer and oversee projects in their county. I don’t have direct answer to your question, but can tell you of a few options. The Office of the Governor, Department for Local Government has granted funds to be used for cemetery preservation in the past. In fact, I recently worked with the Clark County Cemetery Board to apply for a grant for the preservation of the graves of two Revolutionary War veterans. We were awarded the grant this month. I know that there is a limited amount available for this and with the current budget constraints, the only reason funds were available this cycle, is that there was a small amount left that came from a previous source. It is not a line item in the state budget. It could be that you could donate to that fund. Those monies are used throughout the state for various projects and focus on the small family cemeteries that would not otherwise have funds available to them for preservation & restoration. The contact in that department is Harry Carver and his phone number is (502) 573-2383, ext 285. I just spoke to Mr. Carver and they do accept donations. After the recent award of grants, his office is out of money. Donations would be gratefully accepted. (See http://dlg.ky.gov/News/cemetery+preservation.htm for details of how this program is administered.) Another option is a program here at the Kentucky Historical Society. For a number of years, KHS has collected data on cemeteries and complied databases of information. KHS inherited a database from the Attorney General’s Office. In addition, a task force has been formed to determine the feasibility of merging several cemetery databases, which have been compiled by different agencies at different times. The hope is that a single format will be developed and all of the available information can be stored in one location. That would enable genealogists and researchers the ability to search for the locations of family cemeteries. It would also give contractors or developers a source to determine if there are any cemeteries on property that they wish to develop. Once this system is in place, additional information could be uploaded from all of the counties across the Commonwealth and continually updated. The contact here at KHS is Ann Johnson and her number is (502) 564-1792, ext 4404. Ann also gives programs on cemetery preservation around the state. KHS does accept donations and you could specify the Cemetery Preservation Program, or the Cemetery Documentation Project. From the KHS website; “Cemetery Preservation Cemeteries are important historical assets that tell about a community’s past. They hold valuable resources for historical and genealogical research. More importantly, they are monuments to the people who once inhabited our communities. The Kentucky Historical Society (KHS) provides support to communities across the commonwealth to assist with the preservation and care of cemeteries and gravestones. Through seminars that teach best practices in cemetery preservation and educational materials that provide guidance and instruction to local citizens, KHS partners with communities to preserve and promote this important part of the state’s history and heritage. Program Services Census of Kentucky’s Cemeteries The Cemetery Preservation Program is continuing the work begun by the Kentucky Attorney General’s 2001 Cemetery Task Force to develop a comprehensive survey of all cemeteries and burial sites in the state. Cites, county historical societies, and other organizations are encouraged to work with us to develop a database that will provide a permanent record of Kentucky’s cemeteries and burial sites. Click on the link below to access the census form. Cemetery Census Form Cemetery Preservation and Education Project The program provides ongoing resources to Kentucky’s citizens and organizations that are interested in the protection and preservation of our historic cemeteries and gravesites. The program provides: · Educational materials about appropriate cleaning and repairing techniques for old gravestones · Seminars and symposia that bring together professionals and interested individuals to discuss preservation issues and techniques as well as the historical and cultural significance of Kentucky’s cemeteries and gravesites · Support for projects that highlight the educational and historical significance of our state’s cemeteries · Advocacy across the state for the continued care and preservation of our historic cemeteries For more information, contact Ann Johnson, AnnG.Johnson@ky.gov, or 502-564-1792, ext. 4404.” I hope that this information helps. I would be happy to discuss this further with you. Thank you for your interest in cemetery preservation. Thank you for your help in protecting our heritage.

In 1850 William is 56yrs and states he is from PA. Catherine is 55yrs and states she is from MD. They have children Virginia 24 b KY, William 22 b KY, Mary 17 b OH and Sarah 12 b PA. Reasons I think this may be the same Mary are: Mary is about the right age and place of birth - OH Catherine's birthplace of MD is consistent with what Mary shows in later census records (though William states he was born in PA and that doesn't match up with Mary's later census info) William and Catherine's 2 oldest children are Virginia and William. Augustus and Mary's 2 oldest children are Virginia and William A will for William or marriage records for Mary will probably be the only way to prove it.

Lake, according to death certificate, was b Feb 2, 1827 and died Sept 17, 1913. His father was listed as Abraham and mother was not listed. Per a family file found on Ancestry, his mother would have been Eleanor Sullivan. James was married to Mary Elizabeth Moseley. Per d/c she was born Dec 11, 1831 and died Nov 11, 1912. Her parents were Robert Moseley and Martha (Patsey) French. It appears that James Lake had a brother, Abraham Jr. that was married to Lucinda Smith. They were the parents of Margaret Lake Westerfield. If Willis Westerfield was the son of Charles F. and Margaret Lake Westerfield, he would be James Lake's great nephew. I haven't been able to find any proof that Willis was their son. In 1900 Margaret advises that she has 9 of 11 children living. Those children are Aptolia, John Margaret, Ora,Charles, Dona, Lottie, Veachel, and Hondy. By 1910 Aptolia has died and Margaret states on census that she has 8 of 11 children living. Both Charles and Margaret died in 1928. They had 7 living children per obit. Dona died in 1911. I found a daughter Mary Etta that was born 1873 and died 1874. This gives us 10 known children. So we have 1 unknown child and it could be Willis. There is an Indiana marriage index entry that has Willis D. Westerfield marrying Mollie Hogland Dec 19, 1895 in Spencer Co. I believe she is the same Mollie Westerfield that shows up in 1910 as a widow in Ohio Co. I'm sorry I couldn't prove who Willis' parents were.
