Amanda, This record has nothing to do wih you but it does me. Obedience Cushenberry is the daughter of Elijah Cushenberry, son of my Moses Cushenberry that died in Bourbon Co., Ky in 1792. They moved to Allen Co., Ky. in 1810. 2f. Johnson J. COCKRILL was born about 1784 in North Carolina. Johnson J. COCKRELL married Obedience CUSENBERRY 2 Jan 1815 in Warren County, Kentucky. Johnson died 30 Jul 1851 in Allen County, Kentucky. And today more DNA results came in on my family's DNA Cushenberry male tester. We only have 12 more markers to come back hopefully next week..... If the results hold up on these last 12 markers with what we already have received our Moses Cushenberry will officially by DNA results match the other tester of the Virginia Quisenberry family and our Moses could end up according to time frames be kin to Aaron Quisenberry, Sr whose line descends from John and Humphrey Quisenberry. I will be posting when these last DNA results come in on how it turns out either way. After 29 years of research my cousins and I are very excited right now. LOL !!
