Jackie, You have below Barton Elexius MILES born abt 1764 died 4 May 1845 , Washington, Kentucky married Rose Anna Payne Barton Elexius MILES the son of Henry MILES and Eleanor PIDGEON Barton Elexius MILES had a daughter Henrietta MILES who married Charles Fowler MATTINGLY on 30 Apr 1811, , Washington, Kentucky his son Elexious MILES married Sarah B. THOMPSON on 13 Jan 1830 , Washington, Kentucky Okay someone please correct me - I've always thought that John Barton Miles was married to a Rose whose last name was unknown based on a couple of documents such as this: Deed Book K, pp. 295, 296, Washington County, Kentucky January 24, 1831 John Barton/Bartholomew/Barton Miles & Rose/Rosey his wife to Elexcius Miles "JOHN BARTON MILES and his wife Rose Miles of the County of Washington and State of Kentucky of the one part and Elexcius Miles his son of the same.....Witnesseth that the said is BARTHON MILES and Rose his Wife" To son: ELEXCIUS MILES, for love and consideration and one Dollar in silver in hand. My daughter HENRIETTA MATTINGLY is to have the house where MY SON JOHN now lives and 8 Acres of ground during her widow hood and the small lott of ground where ST. CHARLES CHURCH is included in this deed. Signed: BARTHOLOMEW MILES (mark), ROSEY MILES (mark) Was he married twice? Or where have I gone astray? I know Donnelly cited a marriage to Sarah Howard. I guess I've just never found it. Or is Rosey a nickname for Sarah? Jackie
