ROYAL WADE24 February 1791, with John Hale as surety on their bond. (Marriage Bonds of FranklinCounty, Virgina, 1786-1858, Marshall Wingfield, 1939, reprinted GenealogicalPublishing Company, Baltimore, 1973.)The births of their children were recorded in a Wade family Bible (Possessed byDorothy Ellis Hedges, Bagdad, KY, transcribed by Ronald Harrod, Bagdad, 1976.) TheBible is an Alexander's Stereotype Edition, published by C. Alexander and Company,Athenian Building, Franklin Place, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1834. It has not beendetermined to whom it originally belonged, who made the entries or how it descendedto Ruth Duncan Ellis, who gave it to her daughter Dorothy Ellis Hedges, but it isreasonable to assume that Ruth received it from her mother Martha Wade Duncan,who was a daughter of William Wade and Louisa Crook Johnson. The Bible alsocontained the birth and death dates for Louisa Johnson Wade, and a loose-leaf birthrecord for the family of her parents Jones Johnson and Polly Crook of Madison, Shelbyand Franklin counties, Kentucky.While residing in New York City and visiting Bagdad, soon after receiving the transcriptof the Bible entries from Ronald Harrod in 1976, this compiler telephoned Mrs. Hedgesfor permission to see and photograph the Bible. She reluctantly agreed, but when hearrived at her home, shortly after calling, she did not answer the door, apparently, ashas been suggested by other relatives in the Bagdad area, uneasy about admittingstrangers into her house and being a jealous guardian of the Bible. Ronald Harrod, alsoa Wade descendant, described the Bible as “very old & rotten and moths have eatenpart of it.” It measured about 12 by 8 inches. The front cover was missing and the backcover was “very stiff” leather. Some of the pages appeared to be missing from when hesaw it some fifteen years earlier, while it was in the possession of Ruth Duncan Ellis.Most of the upper third of the family record page, containing the family of Royal Wadeand Rachel Jones, is missing because of a diagonal tear that carried away the namesof the first four entries, which probably included the parents, since the first remainingnotation is the day and year of the birth of their first child Mary Wade in 1794:. 18, 1794Oct. 21, 1797Sarah Wade born Sep. 19, 1799Rachael Wade born May 8, 1801Susanah Wade born Jul. 2, 1802John Wade born Jan. 2, 1803Marget Wade born Apr. 28, 1805Anderson Wade born Dec. 9, 1808Isaac Wade born May 18, 1809Eliza Wade born Dec. 11, 1811Josiah Wade born Dec. 28, 1812Squire Wade born May 4, 1814William Wade born Aug. 7, 1817The following entries were written by two or three different hands in various places inthe Bible::Prepared by WILLIAM G SCROGGINS 26 Jun 1998: 718 Mill Valley Drive, Taylor Mill KY 41015-2278 3

After Susannah's death,Samuel Miles married (3) Margaret Wade, her spinster sister, on 10 November 1863:(Shelby County, Kentucky, Marriages, Volume II.)Samuel Miles, Sr., of Shelby County; age 67, born Woodford County, Kentucky;father and mother born Virginia; 3rd marriage; and Margaret Wade of ShelbyCounty; age 26, born Shelby County; 1st marriage; bond by T. A. ------This transcript gives the age of Margaret Wade as 26 but the actual bond gives it as 56(Shelby County, Kentucky, Marriage Book 9, page 2956.) Born in 1805, Margaretactually was 58 in 1863.Identified in her marriage license as being born in Shelby County, Margaret Wadeapparently was the first of the children of Royal Wade and Rachel Jones to be bornthere. They were in Woodford County, Kentucky, from 1793 (Woodford County,Kentucky, Deed Book B, page 329). After Polly was born on 28 April 1805, Royal andRachel were identified as residents of Shelby County on 05 August 1805, when theysold their Woodford County land. (Shelby County, Kentucky, Deed Book C1, page 473.)The parents of America Cheatham, who married Anderson Wade on 14 July 1831 inSpencer County, Kentucky, are not known. James Peter was bondsman.

ROYAL WADENovember 1786 and died on 28 January 1862. James Barnhill was born on 18 August1780 and died on 01 January 1825. For a short time after their marriage, James andHannah lived at Boonesborough, then they moved to Shelby County near Lynch’s Fort,before going to the part of Henry County, Kentucky, that became Oldham County. In1824 they went to Daviess County, Kentucky. (Quotation from a history of DaviessCounty, published in 1855, The Boone Family, Hazel Atterbury Spraker, Rutland, VT,1922, reprinted Genealogical Publishing Company, Baltimore, 1974.) Lynch’s Fort wasoriginally known as the Painted Stone Station or Squire Boone’s Station. In 1779,Daniel Boone’s brother, Squire Boone, Jr., erected a fort at the Painted Stone on ClearCreek, where Shelbyville now stands. About 1783 Squire Boone transferred it toColonel Lynch and it became known as Lynch’s Station. (History of Shelby County,Kentucky, George L. Willis, Sr., Shelby County Genealogical and Historical Society,Shelbyville, 1929, reprinted Cook and McDowell publications, Hartford, KY, 1979.)Robert and James Barnhill were sons of Robert Barnhill, Sr. and Rachel Ann Harper(Hooper). Robert, Sr. was the son of William Barnhill, Sr., who reputedly was born inCounty Antrim, Ireland, and migrated to America where he settled in Orange County,North Carolina, where he died in 1791 as “an old man.” (Data of A.

William Thorp was surety on their marriage bond. Josiah wasdead by 26 December 1844, when his widow Polly Wade married Richard Sanford.William Roberts was bondsman. (Shelby County, Kentucky, Marriages, Volume II.)Thurza Rodgers, who married Squire Wade, was a daughter of George Rodgers(Rogers) and Elizabeth Pearson of Shelby County.

(Shelby County,Kentucky, Marriages, Volume II.)William Wade and Louisa Crook Johnson were married in Franklin County, Kentucky,on 24 October 1844 by Abraham Cook. (Franklin County, Kentucky, Marriage Book 2,page 30.) On 13 February 1845 Louisa and William Wade were described as heirs ofJones Johnson in a Shelby County, Kentucky, deed. Polly Johnson, widow of JonesJohnson, deceased, Logan Johnson, Polly Johnson, William Wade, Louisa Wade,Elizabeth Carr, Abraham Christie and Sarah Christie, legal heirs of Jones Johnson, soldland in Shelby County. The widow Polly Johnson, her son Logan Johnson, her daughterPolly Johnson, who later married Anderson Wade, her son-in-law William Wade andher daughter Louisa Wade were described as residents of Franklin County (ShelbyCounty, Kentucky, Deed Book O2, pages 116-118).As a resident of Franklin County, Virginia, Royal Wade bought 391 acres there, from hisfather-in-law John Jones, who also lived in Franklin County, Virginia, for 13 pounds, on01 February 1789. The tract was adjacent to land of Thomas Jones, on branches ofTurners and Nicholas creeks. The deed, witnessed by David Barton, Thomas Jones, Jr.and Thomas Ruble, was proved by John and Mary Jones in Franklin County Court on02 August 1789 (Franklin County, Virginia, Deed Book 2, page 8). On 30 July 1791Royal Wade of Franklin County, Virginia, sold this land to Conrad Plaster of the sameplace for the same price, 13 pounds. Witnessed by Thomas Jones, Jr., Randolph Halland Henry Jones, the deed was proved in Franklin County Court by Royal Wade andhis wife Rachel on 01 August 1791 (Franklin County, Virginia, Deed Book 2, page 247).Land lying on the watershed of both Turners and Nicholas creeks probably was situatednear present Route 752, west of Ferrum, Virginia, and north of Route 40. The streamsdrain a hill that rises to 2100 feet above sea level. Turners Creek is north of the hill andruns east to join the Pigg River. Nicholas Creek is south of the hill and flows south toPhilpott Reservoir, a lake formed by the damming of Smith River.

(Kentucky General Highway map, 1973.)On 01 April 1807 Royal Wade acquired 157 acres, on Six Mile Creek in Shelby County,from Charles Lynch for $1.00. The minimal payment suggests that there was another,more important, consideration involved, such as a familial relationship, but the basis forthe price is not known. The tract adjoined lands of Abraham Cook, John Miles,Bohannon, Rogers and Plaister. With the exception of Rogers, these surnames arefound with the Wades in Franklin County, Virginia. The parcel of land was part of a2000-acre survey patented to William Dandridge and William Duvall. Lynch wasrepresented in the transaction by William Taylor, Attorney-in-Fact.

Polly and Sally Wade weremarried by 1820.Since Polly Wade, who married Thomas Wade in 1813, would have been 26 in 1820, itappears that she died before the 1820 census was taken, after having four childrenbetween 1814 and 1820, unless she was entered in the 45 and over column in error:(page 174, line 38.)Thomas Wade 1 M 26-45 1 F 45+ (?)4 M -10 (?)Polly probably was dead, and the older woman probably was someone helping Thomascare for his young sons, because on 01 March 1825 Thomas Wade married NancyPatton (Shelby County, Kentucky, Marriages, 1792-1833.) Since there appears to havebeen only one Thomas Wade in Shelby County at this time, this scenario is logical, butit has not been proved that this marriage applies to the husband of Polly Wade.Jubal Lee was registered on the same sheet as Royal Wade and Thomas Wade: (page174, line 10.)Jubal Lee 1 M 26-45 1 F 16-26 (Sally)1 M -10 (?) 1 F -10 (?)Patrick Fitzsimmons, father of Mary who married Josiah Wade in 1836, was enteredjust before Jubal Lee: (page 174, line 9.):Prepared by WILLIAM G SCROGGINS 26 Jun 1998: 718 Mill Valley Drive, Taylor Mill KY 41015-2278 12

The 1830 Kentucky census index does not include either Anderson or IsaacWade and there is no John Wade of residence in or near Shelby County. (Kentucky1830 Census Index, Dora Wilson Smith, Heritage House, Thomson, IL, 1974.) There isno knowledge of the adult life of John Wade, so perhaps he died young. AndersonWade, who married America Cheatham in Spencer County in 1831, probably was livingwith an employer in 1830. Isaac Wade apparently married Eleanor Barnhill before 1840.They lived in Indiana, where they had children from about 1841 until 1849, before goingto Iowa, where they resided in Yellow Springs Township, Des Moines County, in 1850:(The Wade Quarterly, Volume 3, Issue 2, Evelyn Wade, Llano, TX, September 1976.)Isaac Wade 40 M Laborerborn KYElanor Wade 28 F KYWilliam Wade 2 M INSarah Wade 7 F INJames Wade 5 M INMary Wade 3 F INEliza Jane Wade 1 F INAs the first child listed, the age of William must be incorrect.

Born about 1822, she probably did notmarry Isaac Wade before 1840. Robert Barnhill and Isaac F. Wade are on the 1840Indiana census index in Montgomery County (pages 695 and 815).Rachel Wade, Jr. married Theophilus Brawner in 1821, but his name also does notappear in the 1830 census index for Kentucky.Thomas Wade and his second wife seem to be in Oldham County, Kentucky, in 1830.Oldham was formed in 1824 from parts of Shelby, Henry and Jefferson counties:(Federal Census Microcopy 19, Roll 40, page 289.):Prepared by WILLIAM G SCROGGINS 26 Jun 1998: 718 Mill Valley Drive, Taylor Mill KY 41015-2278 13

IfWesley was born after 1813, he could have been one of the four males under 10 withThomas Wade in Shelby County in 1820. In Oldham County in 1830, Thomas Wadehad four males between the ages of 5 and 20 residing with him. The elder could havebeen Wesley Wade.Elizabeth Wade, wife of Wesley Wade, is buried at Indian Fork Baptist Church inShelby County.

ROYAL WADEThe correct initial for Enos Wade was M. He probably was named for his maternalgrandfather Enos Miles. Enos M. Wade, aged 25, born in Franklin County, son of Royaland Rebecca Wade, died of consumption on 18 April 1852 in Franklin County,Kentucky. (Bluegrass Roots, Volume III, No. 3, Kentucky Genealogical Society,Frankfort, 1976.) This statement of birthplace indicates that Royal Arial Miles lived inFranklin County about 1827, after marrying Rebecca Miles in Shelby County in 1820,and before moving to Henry County, where he appeared on the 1830 census. Enos isburied in the Russell Cemetery on property owned by Ellsworth Kesler in 1978. Thegraveyard is on the east side of a wooded ravine that drains into Benson Creek, 800yards from Highway 12, 3.7 miles from Bagdad on the Shelby-Franklin county line.

W--(e)who was ---- ------ 17, 182(1)--- --ed ---- --- 1852The last letter of his name and the last numeral in his birth year, shown in parentheses,were questionable. The 1 undoubtedly should have been a 7.After the 1850 census and before 02 August 1851, James A. and Sarah Christie Wademoved from Franklin County to Gentry County, Missouri. In addition to Mary E. Wade,who was two years old in 1850, James and Sarah had at least three sons, Elza T.Wade, who was born in Gentry County, Missouri, on 02 August 1851 and later lived inPendleton, Oregon; Israel C. Wade and A. J. Wade. (Collections for the History of theWade Family, Stuart Charles Wade, Microfilm Reel 4; unpublished notes on 4 reels ofmicrofilm.) As abolitionists, James and Sarah moved from Missouri to Nebraska andthen, after the Civil War, returned to Missouri. Unless Mary E. Wade was named MaryElizabeth and called Lizzie, James A. Wade and Sarah Christie also had a daughterLizzie Wade Hardin. (Data of Earl F. Wade.) In 1876 James A. Wade, a native ofShelby County, Kentucky, lived in Daviess County, Missouri, Pattonsburg Post Office,Townships 61 and 62, Range 29 West, to where he had come in 1856. (DaviessCounty Atlas of 1876, quoted in Wade Waid Waide, Mrs. Jeff Wade, Jr., Bragg City,MO, 1975.)Cynthia A. Wade, daughter of Royal Wade and Rebecca Miles, married SamuelRobertson on 03 February 1842 in Shelby County. (Shelby County, Kentucky, MarriageBook 5, page 1076.)Susanna Jane Wade, daughter of Royal Wade and Rebecca Miles, married JamesGhormley Miles, son of Samuel Miles and Hannah Ghormley, on 12 November 1850 inFranklin County, Kentucky. Samuel Miles was a brother of Rebecca Miles Wade, so thecouple were first cousins. James Ghormley Miles was born on 02 July 1827 and died on15 March 1898. Susanna Jane Wade Miles was born on 04 March 1834 and died on 12August 1904 at Indianapolis, Indiana.

ROYAL WADEIt has been said that Royal Arial Wade may have had a daughter who married aRogers. (Data of Earl F. Wade.) Perhaps she was Cynthia who married SamuelRobertson. Census records do not support the existence of another daughter.On 14 October 1852 William Elza Wade, son of Royal Wade and Rebecca Miles,married Louisa Scrogin, daughter of Benjamin Scrogin and Pamelia Bohannon andsister of William Samuel Scrogins who married Mary Edna Wade, daughter of WilliamWade andLouisa Crook Johnson. Thomas M. Daniel performed the ceremony before witnessesWilliam Bohannon, James Wilcoxen and James Wade. (Shelby County, Kentucky,Marriage Book 8, page 2119.)It has not been determined when Royal Arial Wade moved from Kentucky to Indiana,but he and his brother Squire reputedly left Kentucky because they were opposed toslavery. (Hoosier Pioneers, Ethan A. Miles, Indianapolis, 1937.) Rebecca Miles Wadewas born in Virginia on 08 January 1794 and died in Danville, Hendricks County,Indiana, on 30 July 1874, at the age of 80. Royal Arial Wade died in Danville on 11March 1884, aged 87.The date of the death of Rachel Jones Wade is not known, but she died before herhusband. Royal Wade, widower, born Virginia, died on 27 August 1855, aged 87 years.(Records of Kentucky Historical Society, Frankfort.) Born on 10 July 1766, Royal wouldhave been 89 before 27 August 1855.Anderson Wade and William Wade were enumerated as neighbors in Shelby Countyon the Kentucky census, dated 29 June 1860. The real estate of each was valued at$800.00, which suggests an equal division of their father's land. The personal propertyof William was valued at $425.00 and that of Anderson at $400.00. Their unmarriedsister Eliza, who was described as an idiot, resided with William. Their mother-in-lawPolly Crook Johnson lived with Anderson: (Federal Census Microcopy 653, Roll 395,District 2, Christiansburg Post Office, dwellings 650 and 651, families 614 and 615.)Wm Wade 43 M Farmer born KYLouisa C Wade 41 F KYRebecca Wade 14 F KYJames Wade 13 M KYMary Wade 11 F KYRobt Wade 9 M KYMartha Wade 2 F KYElizabeth Wade 50 F KYAndn Wade 53 M Farmer born KYPolly Wade 39 F KYIsabella Wade 12 F KYFountain Wade 7 M KYPolly Johnson 70 F KY:Prepared by WILLIAM G SCROGGINS 26 Jun 1998: 718 Mill Valley Drive, Taylor Mill KY 41015-2278 19

ROYAL WADEObediah and Eusebia Cook Wade had issue, but a record of marriages and issue of thechildren of Anderson and Polly Johnson Wade has not been located.Eusebia Neville Cook, who married Obediah Wade, was a daughter of Abraham Cook,Jr. and Hannah Miles. Hannah Miles Cook was a daughter of Enos Miles and AnnaBohannon. Obediah Wade (Waid) obtained a license to marry Eusebia N. Cook,daughter of Abraham (Abram), on 09 January 1860, with Richard J. Shannon (Shanon)as bondsman. (Shelby County, Kentucky, Marriages, Volume II.)In his will, dated 07 March 1883 in Shelby County, Anderson Wade named his wifeMary Wade, daughter Belle Wade and sister Eliza Wade, whose name was transcribedby the court clerk in the recorded copy of the will as Elvira (Source identification not incompiler's files).Since Anderson Wade and America Cheatham named their son Obediah, she musthave been related to Obediah Cheatham who died in Spencer County, Kentucky, about1837. In his will, dated 24 August 1836 and proved 02 October 1837, Obediah(Obadiah) Cheatham named his wife Lucy Cheatham, daughters Dolly Cheatham andSally Russell, and son John Wesley Green Cheatham. The wife and son were namedas executors. The will was witnessed by John Cochran and Thomas J. Martin who alsosecured the bond of administration for the executors.

(Shelby County, Kentucky, Deed Book W, page 213.)ROYAL WADEElizabeth Jones, who married John Miles, was born 03 March 1765 and died on 14 July1833 in Hendricks County, Indiana.Lucinda Tiller, the second wife of Isaac Miles, was the widow of John Tiller. Her maidenname may have been Guthrie since she was identified as the widow Guthrie in abiographical sketch of Isaac Miles, who ran a grist mill in Woodford County, Kentucky,on Glenns Creek, across the stream from his residence. Both structures were standinga few years prior to 1938. His mill was one of the first built in the county and one of twoin the community that was subsequently named Millville by his son Samuel Miles, whocontinued the operation of the mill. Samuel was succeeded in the milling business byhis son John E. Miles, who was very successful. To obtain better access totransportation facilities, John moved to Frankfort, Kentucky, where he built a large milland elevator. His J.E.M. Brand of flour was popular for years and the brand nameeventually passed to a milling company in Lexington, that was still using it 1938.(History of Woodford County, Kentucky, William E. Railey, Frankfort, KY, 1938,reprinted Genealogical Publishing Company, Baltimore, 1975.)Ann Bohannon, who married Enos Miles, was a daughter of James Bohannon(Bohanon), whose will was dated 03 August 1774 and proved in Surry County, NorthCarolina, the same month. It named three children, Jeremiah, Ann and IsabelBohannon. Jeremiah, who lived on the Pigg River, was to be bound out to JosiahJones, with whom his daughters were then living. (Will Book 1, page 27a, Surry County,North Carolina, Will Abstracts, Jo White Linn, publication data missing, transcribed byJames Bohannon, Escalon, CA, 1988.)James Bohannon apparently died of blood poisoning: (Records of the Moravians inNorth Carolina, 1752-1775, Volume II, Fries, publication data missing, transcript fromJames Bohannon.)March 18, 1774, Br. Schaub has engaged the constable, Bohannen, to work forsome months at the Tavern.Aug 1, 1774 Bohannen (“the constable from England”) who has been hostler inthe Tavern, ran a splinter into his foot fourteen days ago. Br. Bonn took it out, buthe has a wound-fever.Aug 6th At five o'clock the body of James Bohannen was buried in our Parishgraveyard. Br. Fritz conducted the service in English.The description, “from England,” by the Germanic members of the Moravian Church,may imply that the Moravians determined the birthplace of James Bohannon or just hisancestral origin. It also may be simply an identification by language. When theMoravians were migrating from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, to Wachovia, North Carolina,in 1753, they stopped for one night with Robert Jones on the Pigg River and describedhim as a Welshman.

This is the area where the associated Wade, Jones, Bohannon, Cook,Miles and Rentfro families resided.The executor of the estate of James Bohannon (Bohanon) was Tyree Glenn who filedan inventory in November 1774. (Will Book 1, page 31, Surry County, North Carolina,Will Abstracts.) On 22 July 1797 Enos Miles of Woodford County, Kentucky, appointedJeremiah Bohannon of Montgomery County, Virginia, his attorney to receive sumsowed to Enos by Tyree Glenn (Gleen) of Surry County. (Franklin County, Virginia, DeedBook 3, page 480, Abstracts of the Eighteenth Century Deed Books of Franklin County,Virginia, Sara Motisher Beck, Franklin County Bicentennial Commission, Rocky Mount,VA 1978.)Jeremiah Bohannon (Buchanon) and Sarah Jones were married on 15 December 1786;Ann Bohannon (Anna Buckanan) and Enos Miles were married on 25 July 1789; andIsabella Bohannon (Buckhannan) and Joseph Beck (Beek) were married on 21 January1791. (Marriage Bonds of Franklin County, Virgina, 1786-1858.)James Bohannon of Surry County, North Carolina, may have been related to AndrewBohannon who was on the 1771 tax list for Surry County. (Data of James Bohannon.)Ann Bohannon Miles was born on 25 May 1770 and died in Montgomery County, Ohio,on 25 December 1810. Enos Miles owned land on Glenns Creek in Woodford County,Kentucky, in 1796, which he sold to Aaron Darnell in 1809, apparently before moving toGermantown, southwest of Dayton, in Montgomery County, Ohio, to live in an antislaverystate. Enos married (2) Sarah Ann Troup Rentfro, a widow, in MontgomeryCounty on 12 March 1812. (Hoosier Pioneers.)There is a tradition that the first wife of Enos Miles was Ann Buchanan, a sister ofPresident James Buchanan of the United States, who was a son of Andrew Buchananand Jane Russell. After the Revolutionary War, Enos Miles moved with his parents fromBaltimore, Maryland, to Chester County, Pennsylvania. On 30 July 1789 he marriedAnn Buchanan in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and later migrated to Lynchburg,Virginia, then to Versailles, Kentucky, and finally to Ohio. (Data of Mildred ChristieBarnes.) Lynchburg, Virginia, is in Campbell County which was formed in 1782 fromBedford County. It is near Franklin County where Enos Miles married Ann Bohannon.Born in 1770, Ann Bohannon Miles was nearly a generation ahead of PresidentBuchanan (1791-1868), who was a native of Mercersburg, Franklin County,Pennsylvania. To justify the contention that she was a sister of the president, it hasbeen proposed that two weddings were held to satisfy the desires of both families, oneon 25 July 1789 in Virginia and one on 30 July 1789 in Pennsylvania.

(Cemeteries of Shelby County, Kentucky.)Since Susannah Wade was 45 and Margaret Wade was 58, when they married, it isunlikely that they bore children for Samuel Miles. However, since he identified himselfas Samuel Miles, Sr. when he married Margaret, he had issue by either his first orsecond wife, including a son Samuel Miles, Jr. Jehu Miles, whose tombstone in thecemetery at Indian Fork identified him as a son of S. and S. Miles, could be a son ofSamuel Miles by his first wife Sarah. Jehu was born on 10 April 1816 and died on 30May 1870. In his marriage license, Samuel Miles described his parents as natives ofVirginia, perhaps because they came to Kentucky from there. His mother ElizabethJones Miles was a Virginian, as were her parents, John and Mary Jones. However thebirthplace of his father John Miles has been given, traditionally, as Baltimore, Maryland.Polly West, who married John Miles, Jr., was a daughter of William West.

ROYAL WADEIsaac Lewis and Margaret Bristow, whose father was dead, were married on 24 August1810, with Samuel Prothero as surety on their bond.

James Bristow andCatherine Kesler (Kester) were married on 02 February 1819, with Lewis Kesler(Kester) as surety. (Shelby County, Kentucky, Marriages, 1792-1833.) The secondmarriage may pertain to the same groom. The fact that Sarah Prothero, who marriedJames Bristow, and John Prothero, who married Ann Bristow, were children of ThomasProthero and Hannah Miles, suggests that James Bristow and Ann Bristow also weresiblings. Hannah Miles Prothero and Sarah Miles Bristow were sisters, so the coupleswere first cousins.John Prothero, son of Hannah Prothero, and Ann Bristow, daughter of Benjamin A.Bristow, deceased, and Sarah Bristow, were married on 29 July 1821, with James Milesas bondsman.

Sarah mayhave been Sally Lewis, sister of Jesse Lewis and daughter of Joseph Lewis and SarahBeck, whose husband has not otherwise been identified.Since Samuel and William Bristow were bondsmen for the marriage licenses ofMargaret Bristow and of James Bristow, it is likely that they were siblings.:Prepared by WILLIAM G SCROGGINS 26 Jun 1998: 718 Mill Valley Drive, Taylor Mill KY 41015-2278 64
