Vicki, I *may* have found marriages for your Elizabeth and Mary Catherine SMALLWOOD in Nelson County, KY, which is nextdoor to Shelby Co. I am sure you know that "Polly" is a common nickname in the 1800s for "Mary". A marriage bond was issued on 26 February 1810 in Nelson County for Jacob Kendall and Polly Smallwood. Signed bond: George Bean Consent: Elizabeth & James S. Berry, mother and step-father of Polly Witness to consent: Judson Berry and George Bean Married by Daniel Walker (Baptist) Another marriage bond was issued on 16 November 1812 in Nelson County for David McGill and Elizabeth Smallwood, step-daughter of James Berry Signed bond: Joseph Brown So Polly and Elizabeth SMALLWOOD were sisters. Their mother, Elizabeth _______, married 1) __________ Smallwood and 2) James Berry. New answers always bring new questions :-)!!
