Dear Larry and All:\ I thought perhaps you and other Pence researchers might like to have this brief rundown on the Pences who were enumerated in the first census of Kentucky in 1810: Philip Pence Jefferson County He was born in York County, Pennsylvania, and moved to Maryland by 1790. Moved to Jefferson County in 1796. Had sons born in Jefferson County in 1797 and 1799. There names were John and Philip. In later generations, this family used the spelling BENCE (Philip's father was known as BENTZ. Emanuel Pence Lincoln, Lincoln County He was a first cousin to Henry Pence (Jr.). He sold his land in Shenandoah County (now Page County) in 1801 and moved to Lincoln County before the 1810 census. He died before the 1820 census. There is no firm list of his children. Adam Pence Scott He was an uncle of Henry Pence (Jr.) He likely was in Kentucky by 1800. Left a will in Scott County naming each of his children (no Andrew). The following three were his sons: Adam Pence Scott County Born in 1780, son of above Adam; went to Clay County, Missouri, with his entire family; left a will in Clay County. No Andrew among children. George Pence Scott County Born about 1765, son of first Adam above. Left a will in Scott County naming his children; no Andrew. John Pence Scott County Son of first Adam above. Went to Clay County, Missouri; left will naming children. No Andrew. Coonrod [Conrad] Pence, Shelby County Born in 1784; he was a single man in 1810 (married the next year in Shelby County); his father, John Pence, of Augusta/Rockingham County, Virginia, moved from Virginia to Shelby County to join his son about 1811. Details on these families can be found on my web site (all except Philip). Richard A.
