Re: MAKEMSON

aripingi — 2009-11-08 18:21:09Z

Hello,
Athough this is a very old message I wondered if you have any new information on additional children of John McPherson and Elizabeth Makemson. On the census of 1850 Whitley IN, John McPherson is listed with Levina McPherson. We assumed this was his daughter. Above his name is Solomon McPherson and his family. We are descendants of Solomon McPherson and assumed that John McPherson listed on this census was his father and that Levina was a sister. We would appreciated any new information that you could provide us wih. thank you Barbara R.

Steve,
I just added a few more pictures of G Grandmother Rosalie Warden to my Ancestry.com website. Have you had a chance to look at it yet?
I found a note that provides the birthplace of Ann King (Forbes) in Scotland but I haven't researched it any further.
Let me know if you have any additional information, esp photos and documents.
You can contact me at jamyers@swbell.net.
Thanks, and hope that all is well.

Hey Alan
Great to hear from you. I found our GGgrandparents on the census but have not been able to find when they arrived in this country or to go further back to Scotland.

I also have lots on the Warden side I can send you.

I need to rejoin Ancestry so I can post some pics

jalananc522 — 2009-10-20 18:22:37Z

Hey cousin, Alan Myers here. My grandfather was H.V. Warden, Whitney's brother.

I'm trying to get all of our family pictures and documents organized and uploaded to my computer as well as to Ancestry.com. Check out my Myers family tree for photos and information on the Wardens and the Forbes.

I have a copy of a two sentence obituary for Charles H. Forbes that says that he died in Finney County, Kansas along with the date. This week I sent that information to the Finney County Genealogical Society and asked them if they could provide any additional information. If I hear back from you I'll let you know what they find.

I still have a lot of pictures to scan and upload so I'll be posting more information during the next few months.

Hope that all is well with your family.

Yes, Lucy is the daughter of Radford and Eleanor Angell McCargo. Her descendants still live in Boone County, Missouri. I come through Radford and Lucy Morton McCargo.

The Robinson Cemetery is in Randolph County. Lucy's daughter named Amanda married her cousin, Dr. John Angell and is buried in a rural cemetery in Boone County which has been destroyed.

lenoxburg — 2009-09-25 20:29:53Z

Well, Case is certainly a good old Bracken Co. name!
I thought about that when I read Jim's information and put it with yours, but didn't want to offend you. I did look at findagrave and they're are Powers buried in the cemetery at Brooksville, but didn't see Bea. I looked under Colegrove also, but no luck there either.
You're welcome and let me know if I can help again.

Re: Carntown, Ky.

gamblinbob — 2009-09-25 20:14:29Z

Think that Bea and Jim must have been way ahead of their
time! They did not have any children and she was very tight lipped about things. Thank you so much for your effort.

Re: Carntown, Ky.

lenoxburg — 2009-09-25 19:58:06Z

Sorry to say, today I couldn't find James and Bea's marriage license in Falmouth. Strange, because I picked up my g-grandmother's and she married in 1897. I then called the Bracken courthouse and they did a check for me. No marriage there, either. If according to the information given to Mr. Barton, they were not married in 1942, but were partners they married sometime after that. Could have gone to Campbell Co., I guess, but seems you have a mystery on your hands since you said you visited in the 40s.
Sorry I couldn't be more help. Let me know if I can do anything else for you in the area.

Re: Carntown, Ky.

lenoxburg — 2009-09-23 11:49:45Z

Now how ironic is that?! I'm talking to a native from Bracken Co. Yes, Lenoxburg is in Bracken, about 15 miles or so from Brooksville. I'll see what I can do about the marriage license.

Re: Carntown, Ky.

gamblinbob — 2009-09-23 01:17:40Z

Thanks, if you find something that would be the icing on the cake! Isn't Lenoxburg in Bracken County? I am originally from Brooksville!

Re: Carntown, Ky.

lenoxburg — 2009-09-22 21:43:31Z

I was at the courthouse also yesterday going through marriage licenses and never even thought to look for James and Beatrice. I didn't get finished with my family so next trip I'll look for them too. Pendleton is fortunate to have their records survive the terrible '97 flood there, but they are in excellent condition.
I'll get back to you!

Re: Carntown, Ky.

gamblinbob — 2009-09-22 16:28:34Z

Thank you so much for the information. That is more than I have at this point. It is interesting that Blanche is referred to as an unmarried woman! May be so, and I have yet to locate where they were married. Thanks again.

Re: MAKEMSON

abenormal — 2009-09-08 22:51:04Z

Yes,
I think so. John Makemson, Revolutionary War Veteran (b 1745?, Ireland, d. 1814 Pendelton, County, Kentucky)
About 1780, the surviving Makemson family, homesteaded in Kentucky.
Eldest brother John Makemson, purchased land (1795) in Harrison County, and later Pendelton County.
There was a cholera epidemic c. 1833, and John's oldest son Andrew, and Andrew's second wife, Elizabeth Hand Makemson, were among the victums.
Elizabeth Hand's relatives took the surviving children and raised them in Pendelton County.
Andrew's oldest son William Makemson, became the progenitor of the Makemsons that live in Morgan, Kentucky today.
I am writing this while visiting, and my papers are at home! So I hope I am remembering correctly! Also, the name Purdy, sounds familiar.
My email address is abenormal@verizon.net.
Let me know if this helps! Ann

What happened to Carntown? Where did it go? Underwater?
My uncle Jim Colegrove and aunt Bea had a store there,
and my grandmother lived there. Is there a history of Carntown anywhere?

Re: Carntown, Ky.

Thank you very much, I wish you lots of luck!

Re: Carntown, Ky.

gamblinbob — 2009-09-16 17:00:38Z

James Harrison Colegrove and Bea Power Colegrove owned a store and lived in Carntown,sometime in the 40's. I can remember riding the Blue Ribbon Bus Lines to a certain point
close to Carntown, and then walking the rest of the way down a dirt road to where the store was and houses were there. Not many houses, but a few were there. Jim killed himself there, and Aunt Bea moved back to Brooksville.
Maybe someone will remember them.

Re: Carntown, Ky.

gamblinbob — 2009-09-12 04:19:39Z

Thank you for your reply. I was hoping maybe someone recognized the name of Colegrove from Carntown, also.
Shall try and borrow the book through my library system here in California. Thanks Again.

Looking for information on Julia A. Middleton. She married Thomas Hasty. Had two known children, Rosa and William. Thomas' sister married John Middleton of Lexington, Fayette Co., her name was Lucy Hasty. All that is know of Julia is that she became ill and died somewhere unk. when Rosa and William (willie) were very young.Also said that she returned home when she became ill. I think she married Thomas in Garrard or Boyle Co.s

Re: Directions to Gardnersville cemetery?

Oliver_Mullins — 2009-07-23 20:01:34Z

Go south on 17 to 491. Turn right go to Gardnersville. Turn left at the John Deere parking lot. The Gardnersville Christian church and cemetery are about 2 miles on the right side of the road. We were just there about a month ago. They were building a handicap access to the church. My wife has some Kennedy relatives buried there.

Re: Marshall Jones Sr. of Pendleton County

sohmyabanto — 2009-09-04 13:23:04Z

The marriages of Marshall Jones/Scytha Reno and Gaden Jones/Polly Reno were attested by a Garrard Jones. Can anyone tell me if there is a connection between Garrard Jones and Marshall Jones Sr? Also, I have seen multiple Bourbon County, Ky deeds and wills that were signed by Garrard Jones DCBC. Can anyone tell me what "DCBC" is? Forgive my lack of knowledge on the subject. I did find a Garrard Jones in Bourbon, KY. He is son to a Thomas Jones and Affia Ashurst. I also found a 1813 marriage record for Garrard Jones and Ann Richie. I still cannot find a common link to Marshall,Gaden and Garrard. I am a descendent of Marshall Jones through his son, James Harvey Jones (who married Angeline Lowe). Thanks for your time. sabanto

Re: Carntown, Ky.

Carntown is/was off Rt. 8. There is a book called The First Hundred Years (or maybe two hundred years) by Millie Belew in the Pendleton library that might have some information about Carntown. She covered lots of little Pendleton county towns that aren't around any more.

Re: Carntown, Ky.

lenoxburg — 2009-09-12 17:22:32Z

I checked the book "The First 200 Years" while I was in Falmouth today and there isn't any information on Carntown. I didn't have time to look for any more, but will the next time I go.
I did take a look to see if there were any Colegroves in the EE Barton files and there is a file. Is there anything in particular you'd like me to look for?

Re: Carntown, Ky.

lenoxburg — 2009-09-16 17:50:42Z

I wrote down their full names and will check when I am in Falmouth next week. If they had the store in the 40s that was during the time Mr. Barton did his research. I'll see what I can find.

Re: Carntown, Ky.

lenoxburg — 2009-09-22 11:30:18Z

Strangely enough, I couldn't find any more information on Carntown in the library yesterday. I did find this on the Pendleton website of rootsweb, though you may have already seen it.
