A passing note or so. Rootsweb is having problems with some of the boards where people (including myself) aren't able to make posts to certain lists. They are working on the problem. Secondly - batten down the hatches on some of the weather crossing the country - storms and snow and ice, stay warm and safe! Lastly, a note on these vital statistiacs, both births and deaths I've been posting on Hart Co (and other counties in the past). Are they the Gospel truth? No .... they have errors. 1 - the physicians turned in the list of births and deaths annually to the county clerk's office, on tiny pieces of paper as I have explained before. They were supposed to record the event and the date as the occasion occured. Many doctors forgot - some papers likely got lost. They had to reconstruct who they had attended during the year and sometimes took a guess at the spellings and dates. 2 - many physicians did not know the families they were attending. They would ask other family members the information about the name, where they were born, parents' names, their place of birth, etc. As happens sometimes, the information given was incorrect. 3 - When the doctor turned in the papers to the County Clerk, he had to record it in those big books we just love (not). The Clerk had to read the doctor's handwriting. Enough said (sorry!). 4 - Then comes people like you and I who transcribe what the clerk wrote who had transcribed what the doctor had written - taken from the older microfilm most of the time with all its blears, ink stains, etc. I have mentioned before that one doctor in one KY county might not have kept good records as all of his births and deaths for the year all occurred on the 1st or 15th of the month. He must have been exhausted! So these vital statistics, like any record, need to be taken under advisement to be proved or disproved by other documents. If we can find no other supporting documents, we can use these dates but know that we weren't there to see the event so it could be wrong.

Does anyone know how this Thomas Ferguson is related to John Ferguson that married Sarah Edwards 18 Apr 1820 in Barren County or their son, David E. Ferguson that married Martha "Patsy" Ford 8 Jan 1846 in Barren County??? Also I think that the Joseph Locke listed is the son of Rev. Jacob Locke of Barren County....

"It is the responsibility of all the citizens of the County to see that no untoward or disgraceful incidents take place when our schools open the doors to boys and girls of the Negro race next fall:. "It is by a well-known and highly-discussed decision of the United States Supreme Court, made several years ago, that the State Board of Education has made the recommendations today adopted by the County Board. Such a course is inevitable, and the County Board can see no wisdom in further evading the issue." Supt Darrel CARTER said that a salary would be paid (amt listed) for transportation of Negro students from Fountain Run to Ralph Bunche High School at Glasgow.

Dear Sandi, I will miss the puzzlers. What a "great source" they have been. I hope you will be able to start up again. I often miss out on the chance to guess because I am often behind the time line, but I always read them and guess to myself. One question, Is the story true that many signed with an X because it was a Christian symbol of the cross? Della Good morning as we move towards Thanksgiving and the end of yet another month. I won't be posting on Thanksgiving Day of course and want to wish you all a wonderful relaxing day where you and yours can be truly thankful for family, friends, and freedom. And, for those of you who are football fanatics ... may your favorite team win! As announced last Monday, today ends the posting of my weekly "puzzlers" for a time. Thanks for all who ventured guesses on the final puzzler which I'll discuss next. Hopefully, after the new year, I can start these up again and thanks for all your guesses over the past many months! My puzzler for this past week was: If a person in the earlier times signed with an (X) did this mean that the individual could write, could not write or either. Our first response would be "they can't write!" Well, not necessarily. Sometimes people signed with an (X) for several reasons, one of which you might not have thought of. First of course, would be a physical handicap that kept them from signing; Health - too weak, a deathbed will (always requiring witnesses), even blindness. But there was another obscure reason that goes back to "olden times". Remembering back in your history classes; what was always required to accompany a royal proclamation or order from the king or ruling authority? It wasn't legal until the SEAL was placed on the document. Anyone could have falsely signed a document, but if the seal was on it, it was considered legit. Now in early America and in Kentucky, few people had their own rings to place a seal on a document to make it authentic. But ....... they used what they had. The signature wasn't as important as the seal so to mimic a seal, they put an (X) on the line. This was rare but did happen. I found one of our family who was a direct descendant of an English family of some note and I KNEW the individual could write; I'd seen his signature - beautiful handwriting and it was his writing, not a clerk's. But on a transfer of land it was signed with an (X) "his mark". He wanted it to be official. So, though normally when we see an (X) instead of a signature; it does mean they couldn't write. But not always!!!! Have a great day and I'll be back tomorrow with a post on Monroe Co tidbits of news from the past.

Encampment at Glasgow Ends With a Parade. Glasgow, Ky., May 24. - The second and last day of what is said by the delegates and visitors to be the most successful meeting ever held by the State G.A.R. veterans in Kentucky, has brought thousands of people to Glasgow. "At nine o'clock yesterday morning all the delegates had arrived. At noon Joseph H. DOWNING, of Louisville, was elected Department Commander on the first ballot, and the other officers and delegates were eleced after spirited contests. Mrs. Hannah DONALDSON was elected President of the Woman's Relief Corps. Mrs. E. H. BURCH was elected President of the Ladies' G.A.R. "Lancaser was selected for the next encampment after a spirited contest with Covington. "Last night a camp fire meeting was held in the Court House, with Herman MORRIS as chairman of the meeting. Addresses of welcome were made by the Hon. H. C. GORIN and Judge D. R. CARR with a response by ex-Commander HAMMOND. There were reminiscenses by Capt. John A MURRAY and Captain F. G. BAILEY, ex-Confederate soldiers. A banquet was given immediately after the camp fire to the visitors by the ex-Confederate soldiers, headed by John A. MURRAY. Never in old Glasgow has so enjoyable a meeting been held. Every vestige of a "division line" was forever eradicated, and tears of joy came to the eyes of the veterans on both sides, and they hugged each other when the expressions of good will became so manifest. After the delegates had been banqueted the doors were open and a thousand more visitors were feasted. "This morning a short meeting was held, and the parade took place, bringing to a close the biggest meeting ever held in Glasgow." I think the war was officially ended in Glasgow!

I wish you guys would do me a favor. Roy on the list reminded me of a site that I have used several times and it is so appropriate right now. Let's Say Thanks is sponsored by Xerox. If you click on their site, you can thank a soldier who is currently serving his or her country. There is a choice of several cards, designed by children; the messages are already there or you can create your own message. By picking a card and filling in your name, Xerox will send a card to one of our service people. No matter what side we may be on in matters of war, these are our kids fighting or training, and they're away from home this Thanksgiving. There is no harvesting of email addresses, no lists you get stuck on, no fee. Just the time it takes to say thank you to a lonely young person who might be our son, our daughter, our grandchild, our neighbor ... or a total stranger.

Sorry--but a correction is in order--I was mistaken. I surprised myself to find that I did have the date of the Skaggs Creek Deed of purchase by Benjamin Payne: 1823. So, Polly's date of 1821 may accurately reflect the time of Benjamin's arrival in KY. It would also seem to support the notion that she and Benjamin were already married before coming to KY--maybe for several years prior. This seems more likely if they had had 8 children together, and given the fact that Benjamin was around 80 when he died (1832). ____________________________________________________________________________________ Want to start your own business?

>From the current (Spring 2006) issue of "Kentucky Ancestors," genealogical quarterly of Kentucky Historical Society. "Kentuckians in Death Notices of the Nashville Christian Advocate, June-December 1857," by Jonathan Kennon Thompson Smith. (About 100 names appear in this article, but only a few are from SCKHGS area): "July 16, 1857 POLLY PAYNE, nee MARTIN, died Barren Co., Ky., June 5, 1857; lived to be almost a century old; born in Albemarle Co., Va.; married Benjamin Payne who had first married her sister who died; moved from VA to Barren Co., Ky. in 1821, where he died 1832; mother of 8 children, 4 living." -------------- This was the MARY "POLLY" PAYNE named in Benjamin's Barren County Will (w.p. 1832), but I had never seen her maiden name, MARTIN, established before--perhaps others have. In any case, I thought this was worth sharing. A marriage record (1784) exists in Albemarle County, VA, for Benjamin and his first wife, ANNE MARTIN (my ancestor), but I've never seen a death date for ANNE. The only quibble I would make with this is that I'm fairly certain there's a Barren County Deed for this Benjamin Payne for the purchase of 900 acres on Skaggs Creek, in 1818. This ancestral Payne farm was near Temple Hill, and included the Saltpeter Cave. Could this 1821 date actually be the date that Polly married Benjamin--when she first came to Kentucky, perhaps? Benjamin and Polly were Methodists, and are named in early church records compiled by Clayton Simmons--sorry, I don't recall the name of the church. (see "Historical trip through east Barren County, Kentucky and the Hamilton-Sanderson murder trial," from the Glasgow Times, December 3, 1942-September 2, 1943. Evansville, IN: Whipporwill, 198?)

Caleb FIFER, Major WRIGHT or WIATT and Major HARRIS. The last one named conducted the compamy from Mecienburg (sic) Co NC to the siege of Charleston; Fifer and Wright having been officers of the militia at home and did not accompany Osborn's Co on this expedition. On reaching Charleston by descending Cooper's River in boats. He enlisted again from Mecklenburg Co NC; says he was born in 1764. There may be someone in TN who could testify to his service; but he doesn't know of anyone now living who served with him. He was 16 when he started to Charleston, that being the day he was put on the muster roll. Affidavit of William THOMAS in Allen Co, 1852, said he had known Jacob for ever since 1799 and since that time had lived within 6-7 miles of him. There is a paper in the file as follows: "December 11, 1781. This is to cesrtify that Jacob Dry, a soldier serving under General RUTHERFORD in his brigade in Colonel Phifer's Battalion, has served a full tour of duty and is hereby discharged by him. /s/ Major James KARR.

Sandi, Thanks for sharing this! A similar circumstance occurred with my great great grandfather, Elzia Arterburn (1801-1881, Monroe County), in that an "X-his mark" appears in the middle of his name on his Will. But there are plenty of other occasions--Deeds, court receipts--where his signature occurs or was recorded without an "X," including Deed recordings where the clerk bothered to more formally illustrate the intent of the seal with squiggly lines and the word, "seals." Some clerks evidently paid more attention to this kind of detail than others. Using only an "X-his/her mark" would have been simpler and faster, though, when a clerk or his assistant was faced with the laborious task of recording documents by hand. In Elzia's case, I suspect he may have been ill or on his deathbed when the Will was drafted, which would also explain the "X" on his Will. Thanks, Charles R. Arterburn >>>>>>>>>>>>> My puzzler for this past week was: If a person in the earlier times signed with an (X) did this mean that the individual could write, could not write or either. Our first response would be "they can't write!" Well, not necessarily. Sometimes people signed with an (X) for several reasons, one of which you might not have thought of. First of course, would be a physical handicap that kept them from signing; Health - too weak, a deathbed will (always requiring witnesses), even blindness. But there was another obscure reason that goes back to "olden times". Remembering back in your history classes; what was always required to accompany a royal proclamation or order from the king or ruling authority? It wasn't legal until the SEAL was placed on the document. Anyone could have falsely signed a document, but if the seal was on it, it was considered legit. Now in early America and in Kentucky, few people had their own rings to place a seal on a document to make it authentic. But ....... they used what they had. The signature wasn't as important as the seal so to mimic a seal, they put an (X) on the line. This was rare but did happen. I found one of our family who was a direct descendant of an English family of some note and I KNEW the individual could write; I'd seen his signature - beautiful handwriting and it was his writing, not a clerk's. But on a transfer of land it was signed with an (X) "his mark". He wanted it to be official. So, though normally when we see an (X) instead of a signature; it does mean they couldn't write. But not always!!!! Have a great day and I'll be back tomorrow with a post on Monroe Co tidbits of news from the past.
