Ky Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ky/Mercer/2496 Surname: Vanarsdal, Vanderipe, Westerfield ------------------------- Linda - The will of Harman Vanderipe appears in a typescript book in the Family History Library in Salt Lake, Mercer Co., KY Wills and Estates Vol 1-2, 1786-1808 and 1808-1821, call number 976.9485, P28f, v.1-2. This will is from Will Book 6 p. 293, recorded Aug 1820. He lists his wife Catey, dau Magdalen Huff, son Cornelius Vanderipe, Dau Altie, wife of Abraham Vanarsdel, and grandson John Vanarsdel, (a.k.a. John Vanderipe). Abraham Vanarsdel and Peter Huff were executors and witnesses. Could this Abraham be a sibling to your John C. Vanarsdall? I am guessing that since Pat Durham indicates that John C. Vanarsdall married Mary Vanderipe, and then married Cynthia Vandivier, that Mary was a daughter of Harmon Vanderipe, but she was no longer living when this will was created 1 Jan 1819. And if a group sheet I obtained from Ancestral File is correct, the Mary(Polly)Westerfield who married Cornelius Vanderipe was a sister of James Cozine Westerfield, and the Mary(Polly)Westerfield who married Cornelius C. Vanarsdall was the daughter of James Cozine Westerfield. Is this correct?
