Tom, Thanks so much. I just found this web site http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=dmlubahn&id=I09238 5 and as you can see it claims Mary ABELL born 1 JAN 1795 in Nelson, Kentucky, died 15 NOV 1831 in Harrison, Indiana So the Web site that had Claimed that the Mary ABELL born 1 JAN 1795 in Nelson, Kentucky, had the correct birth date, they just made a major mistake assuming this was the Mary ABELL who married GEORGE MEDCALF So Now that I know this, I have to assume the Mary ABELL born between 1813-1815 who married George MEDCALF does not belong to Ignatius ABELL and Christina Katherine Polk. So at least I know now I need to now find parents of the Mary ABELL born between 1813-1815 who married George MEDCALF. Any idea who might be a possibility. Needs to be parents who stayed in Nelson County, KY -----Original Message----- From: mdstmary-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:mdstmary-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Thomas Jennings Sent: Friday, April 10, 2009 4:09 AM To: mdstmary@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [MDSTMARY] Peter Abell and Lucy Carmen Good morning Jerry, Another source has this: Ignatius Abell b. 1775 St. Marys Co. died August 16, 1840 Harrison, IN.
