Story excerpt from The Estill County Historical Society Bulletin, November/December 2004:

Edward W. Hawkins was arrested on Sunday morning, March 22, 1857, for stealing a horse. Estill County Sheriff James M. Land and Deputy Jesse Arvine were escorting Hawkins back to Irvine [from an area where the community of Proctor is now in Lee County, which was established in 1870., Hawkins had no intentions of going to jail. In late afternoon not far from Irvine [Old Landing area of Estill County], Hawkins found an opportunity to escape and took it. He grabbed Land's gun and shot both men. They died almost instantly. Hawkins ran into the woods and got away. The bodies of Land and Arvine were found by Harrison Moore and James Warner about sundown. They had heard the shots.

Died:
After many years, I have been unable to find any more reference to how, when or where James Warner died. I live far from Kentucky so research is slow and difficult when clues start to run short.

My assumption has always been that James died sometime between the 1860 & 1870 census enumerations because the youngest child of James and Nancy is enumerated with her grandfather, John Warner, in 1870. Of course, the Civil War took place during the decade but I don't have confirmation that this particular James Warner served.

I'd also like to find out what became of Caroline Warner.

If anyone has more information, please share it with me.

Thank you.

James Nancy Phillips about 1849Kentucky. Nancy (daughter of Benjamin Franklin Phillips and Susan Bennett) about 1831 Estill County, Kentucky; after 1856. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events:

• Residence: 20 Sep 1850, Owsley County, Kentucky

Notes:

Note to other researchers: James and Nancy were probably married in Owsley County, Kentucky about 1845-1850. Their first known child, Angeline, was born about 1850-1851. Unfortunately, the Courthouse in Owsley County burned in 1929 and apparently all the old records were lost in the fire. I do not know the church affiliation and request that anyone who does know to please contact me. There may be church records available which could show the marriage. I also do not know where either individual died or where they were buried. Some proof of the marriage date range can be abstracted from the "Extracted Birth Records of Owsley County Kentucky" which shows the births of the next three children (John, Susan and Caroline). These records began in 1852 and continued till about 1858. The births are recorded in varying degrees of detail. Sometimes the parents full names where given and in the case with Caroline, the parents are named but she is listed only as live female. I believe that Nancy Phillips-Warner died between 1856 and 1860. In the 1860 census, all four children are listed with James Warner and there is no mother in the household (The youngest child is Caroline, age 4, which agrees with the Extracted Birth Records mentioned previously). On the same page is John Warner and Nancy [Horn] who I believe were the parents of James. In the 1870 census, James has disappeared, the oldest daughter named Angeline is now married to Joseph Winkle, and Caroline is now 14 and living with John Warner and Nancy [Horn] - Incidentally, all of the 1870 census information I've just describe appears on the same census page.
Researchers should also be aware that Angeline and Susan Warner married brothers, Joseph and William Winkle respectively. Susan Warner's death certificate names her father as James Warner and mother, Unknown. The informant for Susan's death certificate was her husband, William Winkle. If anyone has any information about the children of James Warner and Nancy Phillips-Warner, please contact me.
Reference to the surname of Phillips originally came from Gertrude Ashcraft-Henderson, granddaughter of Angeline Warner-Winkle. Gertrude told me that Angeline related stories to her that her own grandfather was the first judge of Lee County, Kentucky when that county was formed. Gertrude gave the name Benjamin Franklin Phillips as Angeline's grandfather. I checked the story and confirmed that Benjamin Franklin Phillips was the first judge of Lee County when it was formed in 1870.

Finally, there is a James Warner and Nancy in the 1850 Census in Breathitt County, Kentucky with no children. I have not been able to confirm whether they are the same couple I am researching.

Civil War Veteran Celebrates Ninety-First Birthday

Heidelberg, March 16th
Asberry ESTES, better known as "Uncle Add", celebrated his 91st birthday at his home here yesterday. He is one of the two Civil War pensioners left in Lee county.

Mr. ESTES had one of his old comrades among the 28 guests at the dinner in his honor, Robert D. HOUP, of Jessamine county. Mr. ESTES' oldest living child, 65, was present for the dinner. The youngest member of the family present was a great-grandchild two months old. Mr. ESTES' family consists of three children, 33 grandchildren, 101 great-grandchildren, and nine great great grandchildren.

Mr. ESTES was born in what is now Estill county, on the waters of Buck Creek, a son of Charles and Martha ESTES and a grandson of Brazil ESTES who was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. His mother was a daughter of John HATTON who lived years ago at the mouth of the hollow which bears his name down which the State highway runs. His mother was born near Beaver Pond, Clark county. His parents were buried in the old Brandenburg graveyard near the Baptist Church in Heidelberg.

He had a brother, Hiram, who was buried on his 97th birthday, February 28, 1933. Uncle Add was a member of the 8th Kentucky Regiment in the Civil War and despite his age his steps are firm and his memory excellent.

Never at any time, Mr. ESTES said, had he lived more than 15 miles from the place of his birth, and never during his 91 years has he been a party in a law suit or had a writ served on him. His wife, who was a sister of Godfrey and John NEWTON, died several years ago. More than four score and ten years of peaceful life without serious quarrel with friend or neighbor leaves Mr. ESTES with host of friends who wish for him "Many more happy returns of the day."

• Residence: 8 Aug 1870, Beattyville, Lee County, Kentucky

Notes:

Benjamin Franklin Phillips was born in Virginia, possibly in Monroe County of that state. Around February of 1822 his father, Zachariah Phillips, moved the family from Monroe County, Virginia to Scott County, Virginia. In 1825 the family moved again from Scott County, Virginia to Estill County, Kentucky (Bear in mind county formation - Scott County,VA may not yet have been formed and was not verified for these notes). In 1850 Benjamin and his family were living in Owsley County, Kentucky. Benjamin was a Blacksmith with personal property valued at $3000. In 1870 the family was living in Lee County, Kentucky and Benjamin was a minister. It is quite possible that once Benjamin settled down with his family that, he remained in the same place all his life because at this time in Kentucky's history, county lines were constantly being modified.
Benjamin appears to have used his middle name at least during some periods in his lifetime. His name is given as Franklin Phillips. On the 1850 and 1860 censuses, both in Owsley County, his name appears as B.F. Phillips while in the newly formed Lee County (1870) his name is given as Franklin Phillips. Finally, his name also appears in the pension records of his father, Zachariah Phillips, as Franklin.

20 JAN 1840
Letters of administration granted to B. F. Phillips on estate of deceased father.

Benjamin Susan Bennett 27 Mar 1828Estill County, Kentucky. Susan (daughter of John Bennett and Rhoda Wray) about 1809 Estill County, Kentucky; after 1870. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

• Residence: 20 Sep 1850, Owsley County, Kentucky
• Residence: 16 Jul 1860, Owsley County, Kentucky
• Residence: 8 Aug 1870, Beattyville, Lee County, Kentucky

Notes:

Private Research Note:
Susan may have had these siblings:

Rhoda Bennett
Snowden Bennett

An Estill County lawsuit mentions Susanna Phillips, now Susan Phillips, as a witness for Rhoda Bennett, who was the former wife of John Bennett. The record is confusing and seems to discuss two or more events or issues . . . literally, it sounds like a love triangle. One of the individuals listed is Timothy Johnson and a little later (within one year), there is a marriage record for a Timothy Johnson and Rhoda Bennett in Estill County, Kentucky.

If correct, Susan Bennett's mother was named Rhoda and she was married first to John Bennett and then second, to Timothy Johnson and by 1850 she was a widow once again and living in Owsley County, Kentucky. Probably never moved but was just caught up in the formation of new counties.
