    1. [NORTON] Re: Henry Betsy Ann Wright Norton, Grant Co., KY
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Qi3.2ACIB/1313.1.1.1 Message Board Post: All I have is from book called "History of Mt. Moriah Missouri" from pages I copied. This is all it says: "Henry Norton was born in Indiana son of John Norton. He was married August 3, 1812 at Pendleton County, Kentucky to Miss Betsy Ann Wright, daughter of Samuel Wright. They were parents of James Baker, Samuel Jackson, Nancy, Delia, John, William H., and Polly Norton. Henry died in February of 1831 at Grant County, Kentucky, which was formed from Pendleton County, he is buried there, after his death, the widow Norton and family moved westward, "Betsy Ann" died in Adams County, Illinois." This book speaks also of James & Tilitha (Davis) Norton (son of Henry & Betsy); William M. & Nancy (Sandlin) Nortin (son of James & Tilitha); and Oscar & Tessie (Louderback) Norton (son of William M. & Nancy). Plus has 3 family offshoots of these. William M., Nancy, Oscar, and Tessie are buried in Mt. Moriah, MO. James Baker and wife moved to Mercer County, MO from Lee County, Iowa and I believe Tilitha is buried there. I did find your website after I posted. Not sure why the book says one, seems like this information got passed down father to son but don't know. Oscar and Tessie are my great grandparents. Sincerely, Carrie
