Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply. I have been searching since I wrote the message to you.
the Census for Caldwell Co. KY. in 1850,1860, and 1870 list your children, they were.
Mary b.1835 she was married to a Mr.Ausghbough, and they had a daughter, Mary and Mary died shortly after her birth and it looks like Kate and William raised her. and in 1870 census they also had a 4 month old grandson, W.M.Cantrell So they had another daugther that married and was not living in their Home. They did have a daugther named Francis (Fanny) that I can't find where she went to. she was b. in 1849 and they had a Melissa Ann b. in 1848. and a son James H. b. in 1843, a Son, Thomas W. b. 1852, They had a N. P. living with them in 1870 female b. 1852 that could be Thomas W. wife and a W. E. 2months old that could be their Son. and then they had Mary Asughbaugh b. 1855 grandaugther.
I do have all of Kate's siblings and parents and have her Father's line all the way back to 1756. I will be happy to share that with you if you want it.
Thanks again for your reply,

missopie1 — 2009-10-13 14:45:29Z

HI, this is a very late reply, but I do not participate very much in our ancestry, but I may have some information for you. My ancestors are the P'Pools. P'Pool is a shortened name for the original name which is: Pettypool. The Pettypools (P'Pool used by members of the same family)
Dr.Edmond Pettypool, came to the Wallonia area from Nashville Tennessee after graduation from the Medical College of Tennessee (Now Vanderbuilt)about 1850 or there abouts. Look up my niece, Hayes Schardt who is just an amazing historian and can tell you all you want to know about the P'Pools. Our lineage stems from 'Bedford PettyPool' but rest assured you are related to hundreds of people in the Western Ky. area. and if you can untangle all the marriages, etc. you will find what you are looking for. Also, I remember family members talking about 'Uncle Noile' and Luther Hayes from Princeton was my Mother's first cousin,(not related to the P'Pools, except by marriage)Good Luck!

Re: Will of Robert Smith, 1834

2gensearchers — 2009-10-17 23:19:56Z

In searching for a possible ancestor for my Larkin Smith of Smith Co., TN (d. 1840), I was tracking Robert as a possibility. Found at Smith Co site in Cal's Column a reference that Robert Smith and Lucy Gordon were 1st couple to marry in Smith Co., TN (1799 I believe). I found one reference to Robert and Lucy on Rootsweb search which led me to Caldwell Co. I don't know if this is your Robert Smith.
I'm still trying to connect my Larkin if you have that name in anything.
