    3. I don't know how the Quesenberry/Quisenberrys that I have fit into this list, but surely they must.   James Quesenberry married Grace Page Sons Zacheus b. 1776  m. Mary Warder in Fauquier, and Page b. 1780 m. Elizabeth Smith also in Fauquier Co. Zacheus and Page moved to Barren Co., KY and Zacheus on to Missouri.  Zacheus was a minister.   Sandra --- On Sat, 6/19/10, marlowest155@verizon.net <marlowest155@verizon.net> wrote: From: marlowest155@verizon.net <marlowest155@verizon.net> Subject: [VAFAUQUI] Moses Cushenberry and The Quisenberry Family of Virginia to Kentucky To: VAORANGE@rootsweb.com Cc: VAFAUQUI@rootsweb.com, VASPOTSY@rootsweb.com, VACULPEP@rootsweb.com Date: Saturday, June 19, 2010, 10:39 PM    My 5th great grandparents are Moses Cushenberry and wife Ann unknown. Moses    was born in Virginia. He was in Kentucky in Fayette and Bourbon counties as    early  as  1783.  He died in Bourbon Co., Ky in 1792 where he left his    inventory. The Cushenberry    name has been spelled several ways in records in Kentucky. Moses settled in    the Limestone area in the town of Washington and Licking Creek and the land    eventually became Mason Co., Ky although it was in Fayette and Bourbon    counties when Moses    lived there.    It is believed Moses was a part of the Virginia Quisenbery family. Below are    relationships that shows the Quisenberry family and intermarriages and the    Traveling  Church were known to my Moses Quisenberry that died 1792 in    Bourbon Co., Ky.    Moses and Ann's children are:    (1) John Cushenberry married Rebecca Dowden10 Dec 1791.    (2) William Cushenberry... had a daughter Rachel who married Richard Brown.    (3) Elijah Cusenberry married Polly unknown..... their daughter Obedience    married    (i) Johnson Ellis, (ii) Johnson J. Cockerell.    (4) Vincent Cushenberry m. Mary Davis dau of William Davis 4 May 1791 in    Bourbon    Co., Ky..    (5) Daniel Cushenberry m. Sally Davis dau of William Davis.    (6) Mary Cushenberry m. Nicholas Lindsay.    (7) Elizabeth Cushenberry m. Zachariah Ross.    (8) Anna Cushenberry m. Vachel Lindsay.    (9) Rachel Cushenberry m. John F. Pullin (Pulliam).    John Quisenberry was also in Fayette Co., Va in a 1788 deed bounded by    Thomas Burris and Robert McMillion and the record was acknowledged in Orange    Co., Va as well as in Ky.    Also Rev. James Quisenberry was in Fayette Co., Ky son of Aaron Quisenberry    and Joyce Dudley. He was born 1759 in Spotsylvania Co., Va and died in Clark    Co., Ky in 1830. He m. 1st Jane Burris dau of Thomas Burris and Frances    Tandy and 2nd to Chloe Shipp.    My Moses Cushenberry's children moved on to Warren Co., Ky and Allen Co., Ky    formed from Warren County. Aaron Quisenberry was also in the 1820 Warren    County records. He is the grandson of Aaron Quisenberry and Joyce Dudley.    Moses Quisenbery son of Aaron and Joyce Dudley was confused with my Moses    Cushenberry for several years. But my Moses was older born ca 1720-1740 time    frame as he died in 1792.    Anderson Chenault. Quisenberry in his book entitled " Genealogical Memoranda    of the Quisenberry Family" on page 199 in theappendix says this about my    line of Moses Cushenberry....    " From the "Burnt Records" of Fayette County"    " The Burnt Records , so called, of Fayette County, Kentucky, are copies of    mutilated papers partially saved from the flames when the Fayette County    Clerk's Office was destroyed bt fire prior to the year 1800. In April 1888,    I examined these records personally, and found where my great-grandfather    Rev. James Quisenberry, bought 200 acres of land in 1788, in (now) Clark    county, from his brother-in-law, Rev. Andrew Tribble. And in the same book    (Vol I, page 213) it is recorded that in 1795    Elijah Cushenberry bought land on David's Fork, Fayette County, from Elijah    Craig."    "  Also,  the following entries from the records succeeding the "burnt    records".    for the period between 1795 and 1800, viz:    i. District Court, Book D, Elijah Cosenberry, deed to Elijah Craig, page    133.    ii.  .  District Court, Book D, Lewis Craig to Lewis Custenberry, page    166........    (I don't know who Lewis Custenberry is )    iii. Circuit Court, Book B, Lewis Craig to Elijag Crousenberry, page 688    iv. County Court, Book C, Elijah Custenberry to R. R. Hunt, page 308    v. County Court, Book E, Wm. Cusenberry to Charles Robinson, page 381    vi. Marriage Register, book 1, page 4, John Pullen to Rachel Cushenberry Nov    6, 1804, by Rev. Ambrose Dudley. Elijah Cushenberry certifies that his    sister Rachel    is of lawful age. Book 1, page 10, Obedience Custenberry to Johnathan Ellis    , Nov    29, 1807, by Rev. R. R. Hunt    "  Who these people were, and where they went to when the left Fayette    county, in 1810, I do not know ......( my line went to Warren and Allen Co.,    Ky.. !! )........ the variations in the spelling .of the name is due to the    lawyer who drew up the papers or of the clerks who recorded them, for none    of  the  parties  themselves could write at first, though Elijah seems    subsequently to have learned to do so, and then, i nstead of "making his    mark"  he  signed  Cusennberry.".....  A.C.  Q..... Anderson Cheanault    Quisenberry     I feel that Aaron Quisenberry and Joyce Dudley named their son Moses after    mine. Their other son is Rev. James Quisenberry who married (1) Jane Burruis    (2) Chloe Shipp.    Also, Aaron Quisenberry, Jr married Sally Ellis. Also... John Quisenberry    brother to Rev James Quisenberry and son of Aaron Quisenberry and Joyce    Dudley moved from Clark Co, Ky to Warren County, Ky in 1808 about the same    time my bunch went there    ca 1810.    So  in  my  research  which started in the 1980's on Moses Cushenberry    continues. If anyone can contribute to what I have it would be very much    appreciated.    Marianne Dillow    Illinois ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to VAFAUQUI-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
