I read the Commissioners' deeds in Madison Co, ordered by the Madison County Court term of August 1811, dividing land between the heirs of Michael Wallace who lived in Madison "on waters of Otter Creek", and died sometime before 5 Jan 1810 - after realizing it might be possible this was the same man as Michael Wallace of Garrard side of Paint Lick who also had land on the other side of the Creek in Madison. >From the Madison Co Commissioners' deeds, the wife and heirs of Michael Wallace in Madison (on Otter Creek) were: wife Jane Wallace; dau Elly Wallace Ballard; dau Jane Wallace; Ann R. Wallace; Andrew Wallace, Polly Wallace, Sally Wallace Harris (w/o Christopher), Peggy Wallace Jerman [?]. No mention of a son James. I might look at the Madison Co Court Order Books to see when the first mention of Madison Co Michael Wallace's death appears; there may be a will but I think not, since long ago I copied his Inventory and Appraisal and nothing more. That inventory was long (4 pages), showing much livestock, slaves, personal property. This is the one I had "remembered?" as having died ca.1804. Hard to say what age the Madison Co Michael Wallace was; four of his children were still unmarried including the one son, Andrew (there was no wife's relinquishment of dower when he sold his land portion in 1813).
