I did go to cemeteries of Barren Co. (googled) and could not find much???I am def. doing something wrong with the cemeteries searches.

    2. Were they in the 1860, 1870 and 1880 US Census of Barren County at that time? Have you checked the Barren County KY Cemetry Records; however many, many cemetries are much smaller & some done away with since those years. At the time of the writings of the cemetry records in the books there are many unmarked graves in a lot of cemetries, especially those in the farmlands areas. I do believe most of the graves in the Hiseville Cemetry do have stones. Blessings, Susan </HTML>

    1. [KYWAYNE] The Maynard Family
    2. Lea Roberts
    3. Hello list, Just wanted to tell you that I found my elusive g-g-father's mother and father names in Salt Lake City, Utah. I went to visit my brother there, went to the geneology building and up it popped, after all of this time! Silas Maynard, Mainord.....who did marry his cousin Adeline Maynard, was the fatlher of my g-grandfather James Maynard. Silas' father's name was also Silas and his 2nd wife's name was Delila ROBERTS, and she is the mother of my g-g-grandfather, Silas!!!!!!Now that does leave me some food for thought. I have never found any trace of the 2nd wife before this. They are originally from Wake, North Carolina. William Mainord (my g-g-g-g-grandfather)came from Devonshire, England. I am so excited, I could spit!!!!!!!!!!!! Just wanted all of you to know, those who have tried to help me, the great news! Have a great day, Lea Roberts

    1. [KYWAYNE] Bradford Lair Descendant Sought for DNA Project
    2. Robert Strong
    3. In a previous post, I noted that there were two Lair families in Wayne Co., KY, although in the case of my Rev. James it seems the spelling was originally Lear. See my research on my line at http://azstrong.tripod.com/jd_letha/legacy/836.htm. There, I also refer to the line of Bradford Lair and note that I have found no connection between the two lines. I am interested in recruiting a representative of Bradford's line for the recently formed Lear-Lohr-Lair DNA Project, of which I am a co-administrator. Our website is http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/l/lear/. I know there has been much speculation over the years that Bradford was somehow related to Matthias Lehrer/Lair of Rockingham Co., VA, many of whose descendants settled in Lincoln Co., KY. DNA testing now provides a way to test that theory, although that will also require recruiting one of Matthias' descendants for the project. DNA testing will also confirm whether or not our respective Wayne Co. KY families are related. As to my line, I've recruited a descendant of my Rev. James Lear/Lair, a descendant of James' brother, Jesse, and a descendant of the Garrard Co. Lears who moved there from Culpeper Co., VA. I expect to establish through DNA that my line is related to the Culpeper Co., VA Lears, although the paper trail does not foreclose the possibility that my line goes back to Matthias. I hope someone from Bradford's line will take the lead in finding qualified descendants to be tested. That means a male Lair, not a female Lair nor a male descendant through a female Lair, for Y-DNA is what is tested and that is only carried by direct line males. The cost of the preferred 37 marker test is $189. I know of at least one Bradford Lair descendant who has expressed a willingness to contribute to the cost. Robert Strong

    3. Hi all. Anyone here that descends from Asa M. Payne and Mahala Guffey? Asa was born 1812. Mahala was born 1824. Their daughter, Mahala Payne, married Mathew York. Late this afternoon, I had the privilege of visiting with the 95 year old grand daughter of Mathew and Mahala. She had some items that I photographed, that may be of help to descendants of theirs. Personally, I descend from Mathew York through children of his second wife, Louisa GUFFEY. Rex W. Bertram 132 S. Butler St. Redkey, IN 47373

    1. Re: [KYWAYNE] Joseph Bell
    2. Fay Clark
    3. Something that may help you--There are two (three, if you count Silas Bell as a separate line) different Bell lines in Wayne County. The Bells who lived in the vicinity of Otter Creek came from North Carolina. The Bells who live/d in the vicinity of Parmleysville originated in Virginia and are descended from Joseph Bell & Nancy Davenport. Now, just as surely as I've said this, someone is going to come up with an exception, however the name Joseph does not run in my NC > Otter Creek line, as a rule, and I do have a James William Bell in my direct line. It is likely your Joseph is a direct descendant of Joseph & Nancy Davenport Bell. The 1880 census for Wayne County yields 4 Joseph Bells: Joseph Bell b. 1825 Joseph G. Bell b. 1868 (grandson of Sarah; son of Matilda) Joseph Bell b. 1830 m. Nancy Joseph S. Bell b. 1874 (parents George W. & Nancy) Since your James William Bell was born in 1893, we may assume his father was at least 18 years old when he was born or born before 1875. All four Joseph Bells fit that profile. Joseph b. 1825 and Joseph b. 1830 were 63 years of age and older, so we probably can eliminate them. That leaves Joseph b. 1868 and Joseph S. b. 1874 as two possible candidates. I do not have either of these Joseph Bells in my db, another indication that they belong to the VA line of Bells. My database does have a George W. Bell b. 1857, s/o Hiram b. 1828, s/ o Joseph & Nancy Anderson Bell, s/o Joseph & Nancy Davenport Bell. The 1880 census indicates George W. Bell was 37 years old (b. 1843), however I am not an expert on the Joseph Bell/Nancy Davenport line and it's possible either my information or the census record is wrong. In other words, further research or help from someone familiar with this line might determine whether or not George W. Bell father of Joseph is George W. Bell great grandson of Joseph & Nancy. As for the Joseph Bell b. 1868, this appears to be the family with a mother named Sarah (80 yrs old) and daughter named Matilda (37 yrs old): Thomas BELL, id 7927 b. 1798 at Somerset, Pulaski Co, KY m. 9 FEB 1818 Sarah TROXELL at Wayne Co, KY d. 1844 aged 46 Parents: Joseph BELL (1745 - 1815), Nancy DAVENPORT (1745 - 1815) Children (6): Malinda W. BELL (1831), James BELL (1832), Nancy BELL (1833), Telitha E. BELL (1837), Martha A. BELL (1839), Matilda BELL (1843) I hope this helps a bit.

    1. [KYWAYNE] Joseph Bell
    2. Hello listers, I am searching for Joseph Bell. The only living proof that I have for this Joe Bell is that he is given as the father of James William Bell, born 7 Feb 1893. This birthdate is listed on James' draft registration.??James said he was born in Parmleysville, Wayne County, Kentucky.? His death certificate, dated 27 Aug 1936, names Joseph Bell as his father.? It also names Carrie Christian as his mother.? Carrie and Joseph may or may not have been married.? I have found no proof of a marriage. Carrie Christian, otherwise known as Salena Caroline Christian Voyles, was born 12 July 1868 in Jamestown, Fentress County, Tennessee, and died 19 Jan 1947 in Saint Louis, Missouri.? She lived for a time in Ellington, Reynolds County, Missouri, where the above mentioned James William Bell died. So, back to Joseph Bell.? To date, I have not located him in a census.? I suspect that he was living in Wayne County in 1900, although I have no proof.? Carrie's family had by then moved to Reynolds County, Missouri. She was not there.?In early 1905,?Carrie did show up in Reynolds County with her three sons James, Wesley, and Riley. She?gave birth to another son, Joseph Bell, and married George Voyles later that year. The Christian family lived in Wayne County between the census years 1880 and 1900. They were not there the entire time, however, because there are marriage records in Reynolds County, Missouri prior to the 1900 census. Probable year of immigration to Missouri is 1892.? Carrie was the daughter of James and Eliza Bruce Christian.? ________________________________________________________________________ AOL now offers free email to everyone.

    1. [KYWAYNE] Maynard, and Allied Families
    2. Lea Roberts
    3. Hello Anna, Thanks so much for this information. I do not believe that you sent this before, but thank you for sending it now. I cannot get past James M. Maynard, ggrandfather, or his father which might have been Silas Maynard, then I am totally lost. So many Maynards, and I do believe that they moved back and forth from Fentress Co., TN, to KY, back again, and so forth. I did pull something from the internet that says the first Maynard settlers in the Appalachia mountains were James Maynard b. 1750, Christopher Maynard b. 1750 or bef., and William Maynard born 1755/56, in Wilkes, North Carolina. Jacob Maynard's, Sr. was supposedly the father of these men, he lived and died in Wilkes, North Carolina. I found a Maynard family that came out of Massachusetts, to no avail. Could not connect James M., nor (Silas?) S. Maynard to these families, so I deleted the entire group. What a waste, but I am going to keep trying. I am better Anna, thank you for asking. Sincerely, Lea > Hi Lea! > > I've been chasing an Anderson Maynard or Mainard (etc.) for a long time. I > may have already sent this information to you, but just in case.

    1. [KYWAYNE] Maynard, and Allied Families
    2. Anna L Bertram
    3. Hi Lea! I've been chasing an Anderson Maynard or Mainard (etc.) for a long time. I may have already sent this information to you, but just in case. Hope it helps more than it confuses. Anderson, son of Andrew, lived in DeKalb and Fentress Co., TN, Clinton, Wayne Co., and Metcalfe Co., KY. do you have anything on Anderson Maynard? Also hope you're fully recovered from your surgery now. Hugs, Anna Bertram Descendants of Anderson Maynard Generation No. 1 1. ANDERSON2 MAYNARD (ANDREW1 MAINARD) was born Abt. 1831 in White Co., Tennessee. He married ELIZABETH "BETSY" SHELTON, JR. Bef. 1860 in Fentress Co., TN?. She was born Abt. 1829 in Tennessee. Notes for ANDERSON MAYNARD: 1850 DeKalb Co., Tennessee Census; Civil District 14; Page 47-B; Sept. 28th; Line 32; Houshold and Visit #681-681: MAINARD, Andrew, age 45, male, no ocupation, born in South Carolina, cannot read or write; Elizabeth, age 40, female, S.C., can't read or write; Anderson, age 19, male, day laborer, born in TN; Mikajah, age 18, male, day laborer, TN; Caroline, age 17, female, TN; Jane, age 16, TN; Nancy, age 14, TN; Wayman, age 11, TN; Ezekiel, age 8, TN; Harsetta, female, age 5, TN; Samuel, age 1, TN 1860 Clinton Co., KY Census; hh # 10: MAYNARD, A. 30, male, farmer, TN; E. 29, female, knitting, TN; Wayman 6, male, TN; Faraseta 15, female, knitting, TN; Eliza, 60, female, sewing, TN 1868, May NOTE BY ANNA BERTRAM REGARDING 1860 CENSUS: The head of the household is Anderson MAYNARD, the wife is Elizabeth, the 6 year old named Wayman later went as Wayman RIGNEY. Also, the 15 year old Farasetta was Anderson's sister, shown as Harsetta on the 1850 DeKalb Co., TN Census and the Eliza, age 60, was apparently Anderson's mother altough she aged 20 years since the last census! 1870. October 26th - Anderson Maynard was Bondsman for the marriage in Wayne Co., Kentucky of Elzy Buttram (aka Elza S.L. Bertram) and Jane Mannan (aka Mary Jane Manning). Mary Jane Manning was the daughter of John Howard Manning, Sr. and Mariah Matthews. 1875 - Elizabeth MANNING married John CANTRELL in Metcalf Co., Kentucky, in the home of ANDERSON MAYNARD. This Elizabeth MANNING was born December 5, 1856 in Tennessee and died February 27, 1937 in Oklahoma. She was the daughter of John Howard MANNING, SR., and Mariah MATTHEWS of Bledsoe Co., Tennessee and Wayne Co., Kentucky. Her father died during the Civil War, but what her relationship to Anderson Maynard was or why she was in Metcalf Co., Kentucky is a puzzlement. An Elizabeth MAYNARD was on the roll of Beech Bottom United Baptist Church, Clinton Co., KY when it was constituted by members of the Clear Fork Church. Jane BERTRAM and Alvin BERTRAM were also. 1870 Wayne Co., KY Census; Slickford District 3; P.O. Monticello, KY; June 18, 1870; hh #176: MAYNARD, Anderson 35, Farmer $200 TN: Elizabeth 34, Keeps House, TN; Perry 19, TN; Reece 16, TN; Wayman, 14, (male), TN. (NOTE BY ANNA BERTRAM:Perry, Reece and Wayman later went by the last name of RIGNEY.) According to Family Search on the internet on February 12, 2000, for Anderson MAYNARD: There were three entries, all showed him born about 1831 to Elizabeth WILLIAMS and Andrew MAYNARD. One showed his place of birth as Putnam Co., TN, one as DeKalb Co., TN; and one as White Co., TN. The first two counties were not yet formed by 1831 so he probably was born in White Co., TN. I have a copy of a deed dated 23 March 1867 in which the heirs of Griffith RIGNEY are conveying title to a man named Anderson MAYNARD for land belonging to Griffith RIGNE on Caney Creek, Fentress Co., Tennessee. In the margin is written Original Book K, pages 181, 82, & 83. As sent to me by Wilma Crabtree Gibson: ""Fentress Co., TN Deed Book K, Pages 49-50; Heirs of Griffith RIGNEY sold to Anderson MAYNARD of Van Buran Co., Tennessee fir $350 three tracts of land in District #7; Tract #1 (Wilma over looked copying it.) Tract #2 on waters of Caney Fork, mentions BEANS line. Tract #3 on waters of Caney Fork, mentions Margaret HARMON's and Jesse BEAN'S line."" (NOTE from Anna Bertram: Jesse BEAN was an early settler in what is now Fentress Co., TN. He owned land in 1845 on Caney Creek which his widow, Jane BEAN, sold to John R. GWINN; Book D; 127 ) Wilma' list of heirs agrees with what I already had. She adds " This Anderson MAYNARD sold his titles and rights, so he too must be an heir of RIGNEY, and if one reads the deed carefully, so are those who had the KEITH name CATH. I don't know how they are heirs, but all these people are heirs of Griffith RIGNEY." (NOTE FROM ANNA BERTRAM: Griffith's daughter, Mary "Polly" RIGNEY, married John KEITH and that is how the KEITH or CATH name came into the picture.) The deed is signed by the heirs as follows: Line 1: James (X) Jones, Lary (X) Jones; Line 2: Jeremiah Rigney (X); Cresey RIGNEY (X) her mark; Line 3: James S. Guin, Betty Guin (X); Line 4: Bluford Rigney (X), William Rigney (X) Line 5: John Keith (X) his mark, Mary Keith (X) The names on this deed need some explanation due to clerical errors, poor handwriting, etc.! Line 1: James JONES, son-in-law, and Lary JONES, which should be "Sary" or Sarah JONES, Griffith RIGNEY'S illegitimate daughter by Nancy JENNINGS. She is referred to later in the document as "Say" JONES. Line 2: Jeremiah RIGNEY, believed to be the son of Griffith RIGNEY through Betsy SHELTON; Cresey RIGNEY is a mystery! I think it is possible she was actually the Cresey SHELTON who married Jeremiah "Jerry" RIGNEY, and was the daughter of Elijah SHELTON. Since she would not be a blood heir of Jeremiah RIGNEY as a daughter-in-law it implies that her mother was an unknown daughter of Griffith RIGNEY and was deceased before Griffith RIGNEY died. Perhaps Elijah SHELTON had this one daughter with a daughter of Griffith RIGNEY? These two families are quite challenging to sort out! Line 3: James S. G___ was the only one who signed his name instead of using a mark (X), and his was practically illegible. I am certain it was GUIN, which name was spelled other ways such as GWIN, GWINN, GUINN, etc. There was a James GUIN who witnessed the marriage of Griffith's granddaughter, Lavina RIGNEY, when she married Henry STINSON in Wayne Co., KY in 1861. There was a James S. GUINN in Clinton Co., KY about 1890, perhaps earlier. James S. GUINN was married to Angeletta RIGNEY, whom I believe was the one the clerk incorrectly trascribed as <Betty> when she was introduced to him as "Letty" or "Letta". Line 4: Bluford RIGNEY, son, William RIGNEY, son. Line 5: John KEITH, son-in-law, and Mary KEITH, daughter. Wilma Gibson sent me some more on this transaction: "In Book K p. 99 - 100 RIGNEY HEIRS to Anderson MAYNARD, 3 tracts of land 60 a., 25 a. and 25 a. for $350. First tract was part of a grant to John HARVE ?? (had been written over and hard to read) on Caney Fork, mentions James OVERTON'S fence. Tract 2 mentions Robert BLAIR'S line, now Jesse BEAN'S, also mentions "the house". It, too, is on Caney Fork. The third tract mentions Margaret HARMON and Jesse BEAN'S corner. It too is on Caney Fork. Signed: James JONES, Jeremiah RIGNEY, James GUINN, Blufend RIGNEY, John KEITH, Lary JONES, Cresy RIGNEY, Billy GUINN, Wm. RIGNEY, Mary KEITH; March 1867." Now, who is Billy GUINN? Seems we need to obtain a copy of this deed as well. Book K, page 296; Feb. 17, 1869 Anderson MAYNARD sold to James A. SHELTON the same tracts of land for $350.

This was next door to Martha RULE, age 75, and to Henry and Lavina (RIGNEY) STINSON. Lavina was the aunt of the children, Perry, Reece, and Wayman. These three boys later went by the name of RIGNEY and I believe they were Elizabeth (SHELTON) MAYNARD'S children by Griffith RIGNEY prior to her living with Anderson MAYNARD. If she and Mr. MAYNARD married it may have been in Fentress Co., TN where all the marriage records prior to 1905 were destroyed by fires. 1875 - Elizabeth MANNING married John CANTRELL in Metcalf Co., Kentucky, in the home of ANDERSON MAYNARD. This Elizabeth MANNING was born December 5, 1856 in Tennessee and died February 27, 1937 in Oklahoma. She was the daughter of John Howard MANNING, SR., and Mariah MATTHEWS of Bledsoe Co., Tennessee and Wayne Co., Kentucky. Her father died during the Civil War, but what her relationship to Anderson Maynard was or why she was in Metcalf Co., Kentucky is a puzzlement. 1880 Metcalf Co., KY Census?

More About ANDERSON MAYNARD and ELIZABETH SHELTON: Marriage: Bef. 1860, Fentress Co., TN? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From Lea Roberts: "Grandmother Myrtie Maynard married Joseph Freeman. He was born in Fentress, TN, in 1880, she was born in Russell Co., KY, in 1897, her father James M. Maynard was born in Fentress, TN, in 1864, died in TN, in 1931. The last census I could find of S. Maynard was in 1870 in Fentress Co. TN, who was James' father, as far as I can tell. Will post this on the list again. Guess I did not make myself clear. Sorry, not thinking to clearly, had a small surgery on Tuesday.S.Maynard was born in 1843 and Adeline in 1844. However, my confusion is that I cannot find a father or mother for S. Maynard and/or Adeline anywhere. I wanted to find out because I am going to see my brother in Utah in Sept and wanted to surprise him with all of the Trees."
