I am searching for any information regarding WILLIAM CLARKSTON who was born est. Abt. 1775 in VA. He married BARBARA (....). He shows up in the court orders (unindexed) March 28, 1809, Lee Co VA, bk 1, pg 72, Wm on Grand Jury of Inquest; May 24, 1808, Lee Co VA, bk 1, pg 1, Wm on Grand Jury of Inquest; August 23, 1808, Lee Co VA, bk 1, pg 33, Wm on Grand Jury of Inquest; August 22, 1809, Lee Co VA, bk 1, pg 122, Wm on Grand Jury of Inquest; and last, March 27, 1810, Lee Co VA, bk 1, pg 168, indenture of Bargain and sale from William Clerkson and Barbary, his wife to James Wiley; wit John Dixon and Benjamin Davis; This is where he sold the property purchased in the following Deed; August 24, 1800, Lee Co VA, bk1 pg 217 Nathaniel Taylor of Carter Co, TN to William Clarkston of Lee Co, VA, 100 acres in Turkey Cove, boundaries mentioned north side of Wallings ridge; wit Elijah King, Randal Collier, Joseph Head, recorded 9 dec 1800. I do not have a census record for him, but he should show up in 1800 in Lee Co, VA. He does show up on the Land Tax 1802-1809, always with 100 acres. He also shows up on the pers prop tax rolls each year from 1795-1807 and again 1809, then disappears (sold out in the last court order). I don't know where he came FROM, or where he WENT. There is a William and Barbara about the same age range, that show up in Shelby Co, KY in 1810, but can not find any logical link between these two William and Barbaras. The later, migrated to Jennings Co, IN. Does anyone have a list of children for this couple? Any help will be greatly appreciated. TIA, Kay Inman

I am unable to find James or Elizabeth Smith Rutherford in the Early Settlers Vols. These books are not individually indexed, but they were not mentioned in the family groups that were listed. I did find an Elizabeth Henderson Smyth, born July 3, 1818, d. June 18, 1886; m. Mar 26, 1835 to John Debo Sharp Russell. That is as close as I could get. Neither was I able to find them in the 1st or 2nd volumes of the Cemetery books. I don't have the 3rd volume. I also looked for them in the bicentennial book and was unable to find them. There were many Elizabeth Smiths listed in the index. I did not check all of them, but there were no James Rutherfords mentioned at all, so I didn't check all the Elizabeth's who were listed.

Looking for information, especially when she died, where she was buried, and where we might look for an obituary. Elizabeth SMITH b. ~1818 Lee Co. VA (parents unknown) married James RUTHERFORD (son of Finney RUTHERFORD & Ann ___) on 13 Feb 1835 Lee Co. VA. James d. 18 Oct 1861 Lee Co. VA. I think they lived in the middle third of Lee Co. In 1850 they were in the 31st Dist. Elizabeth and her family (including daughter Emily and her husband Hiram BOWLIN) moved to Madison Co. KY about 1866. Elizabeth SMITH RUTHERFORD died about 1892 in KY. It is likely that her body was taken back to Lee Co. VA to be buried with her husband. Any info or suggestions welcome. Elizabeth was my direct maternal line ancestor. I'd love to know where she came from, and I'd be happy to find out where she went. Thank you!
