Robert Thompson Bell (1792-1876) might have been the uncle of Charles E. Bell. The Robert T. Bell family Bible was pulished in THE KENTUCKY GENELOGIST, Vol 9. pg 58, 1967. Robert T. Bell married Mary Ann Monroe on Nov. 24, 1814. Mary of same family as William Smith "Bill" Monroe. (Ky. Family Records 1998) Their children: Elenor M. m. Burch B. Sullinger John T. b & d 1817 Mary Rebecca m. Sanford Ashby Catherine B. m. Henry Thomson George R. m. Elizabeth Sullinger >From This it appears that Robt. T. Bell was probably the Grandfather of James Sullinger, son of Burch B. Sullinger. Perhaps Robert T. Bell was "kin" on both sides ? Also, HISTORY OF WOODFORD COUNTY, Ky. by Wm. E. Railey, 1938 has a lot of info on the Bell family. I'm kinda in a hurry. If you want, I will scan and send you copies. Please let me know direct.
