Pendleton County, Kentucky was were my GGGrandmother was born her name was Martha Ann Makemson she married William Columbus Moore. If you have any info on this family I would love to have it. Thank You Mary Allemand from Wyoming

Margaret Ann Moore Makemson is my 3rd greatgrandmother also. She is buried at Mt Carmel Baptist Church, Pendleton Cty. Email me later at home and I will help you. How much do you know about her?

Hi, I wasn't going to write at first because so much of my information is packed away, but I do have Makemsons in my line and I have a little in my travel notebook if i can be of help. I have not worked on this for a few years.
Andrew Makemson came to AMERICA in about 1755 with wife, 7 boys and a daughter. I do have their names and some informatiion on them and many following down through early 1900s.

They did go to Kentucky after war and some came North into Kosciusko Co. IN

You specificall mentioned the name HAND. I have an ANDREW , whose 2nd wife was ELIZABETH HAND.

IF I CAN ANSEWER A SPECIFIC QUESTION, I WILL BE GLAD TO AND IF I THINK I HAVE IT PACKED AWAY, I WILL BE GLAD TO SEARCH FOR IT IF I THINK I DID HAVE IT.

I THINK I PROBABLY HAVE ABOUT 8 GENERATIONS OF MAKEMSONS, BUT NO EVERY DETAIL I'D LIKE OF COURSE.

I ran across your message while reading the Makemson board. My gggg mother Elizabeth Makemson was married to my gggg father John Mcpherson before 1798 whwn son Robert was born in Virginia. My ggg father Joab Mcpherson, married Nancy Hand, daughter of Cornelius Hand of New Jersey, was born in 1807 in Tuscarawas Counnty, Ohio. The Mcphersons and Hands came together to Whitley and Kosciusko Countiies around 1850. According to the county histories of both counties Elizabeth Makemson Mcpherson died in Tuscarawas County, Ohio before they moved to Indiana. John Macpherson was 91 years and 8 months old whwn he died in 1851. Other sons were George and John Mcpherson. The Kosciusko Co., history said he was the son of Capt. John Mcpherson of Philadelhia, Penn, who died with Gen. Richard Montgomery at Quebec, Canada December 28, 1775.
I would like any information on who theiir parents and place of marriage.
I would appreciate it, as I have been looking for a long time.

Hi,
I too am looking for family from Pendleton, Kentucky with the last name of Makemson. Please contact me if you would like to correspond. Thank you

Hi Mary,
I too have family with the last name of Moore and Makemson and also Brann. If you would like to talk I would be happy to share what I have. Thanks

consolo22, I have questions for you. I too am of the Makemson line. Several of the Makemsons are currently doing more research. We really don't know when they came to America. We don't know the correct birth order of the 7 boys, & 1 daughter. There will be an update coming out in June, and a reunion. So we are working like crazy researching! We have just discovered they owned a Mill in Harford Cty., MD during the Revolutionary War, if this is news to you! And Ariel Davis who married John III, is said to have been related to Jefferson Davis of the Confederacy. Do you know anything about that?

Let me look up this information that I have . . . . and I have quite a bit, I think. I need to dig it out and look it over but I will try to get back to you in the next day or so. Promise!
