Family records state that her parents were: Joseph (or William) Russell born abt. 1775 in Unknown Mary Parrish born abt. 1776 in Unknown (Mary's last name might possibly be Ailes) Family records say that both Joseph and Mary were born in New York and probably married there.

The names of the Russell children are: Elizabeth Russell born 14 June 1803 Campbell County, KY William Ailes Russell born 6 Nov. 1807 D. Dearborn Co. IN Mary Russell - married Jesse Simonson, lived Preble Co. OH Martha Russell - married _____ Thompson Joseph Russell - Died in War of 1812 Moses Russell - Died young The above information about the children was found in The History of Dearborn County. Elizabeth Russell married Walter Kerr and lived in Dearborn County, Ind. I have much information on this part of the family but nothing on the Russells. Any information or assistance would be greatly appreciated! Judith Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
