Wait a minute. We can't place Elijah Medcalf born 1801 under Elijah Medcalf and Catherine PARKER because they were not married until 1820 Nelson Co Ky Marriage, Bond & Consent, 1817-1832 Elisha Medcalf & Catherine Bodine (Mrs) Bond: 20 Dec 1820 Robert N Bodine signed bond Catherine, widow of John Bodine So If the Elijah Medcalf who married Mary Matilda Spalding does belong under Elijah MEDCALF Sr. then Elijah Medcalf Sr was likely married Previously if this Elijah Medcalf Jr. who married Mary Matilda Spalding is his son. Catherine Parker can't be his mother. -----Original Message----- From: mdstmary-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:mdstmary-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Jerry L.

So If I move the Elijah Medcalf Jr. who married Mary Matilda Spalding to be a son of Elijah Medcalf and Catherine PARKER (BODINE) then I still have another Elijah Medcalf under Charles Medcalf and Elizabeth JUPIN with no known wife. It appears to me that Elijah Medcalf who married Catherine PARKER (BODINE) Is probably a brother of Charles MEDCALF who married Elizabeth JUPIN But I will move Elijah Medcalf Jr. who married Mary Matilda Spalding to be a son of Elijah Medcalf Sr.and Catherine PARKER (BODINE) Do we have any more Elijah Medcalf marriages, maybe one of them is son of Charles Medcalf and Elizabeth JUPIN -----Original Message----- From: mdstmary-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:mdstmary-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Jerry L.
