Other Events:

• Residence: 12 Jun 1880, Menifee County, Kentucky

Notes:

Caroline may have married someone by the name of Len or Leonard Roe Ginter who was born 21 Aug 1873 in Kentucky. This family can be traced from Menifee County to Ohio. The name spellings vary somewhat from year to year on the census but you can tell it is the same family. There is a 1930 Death Certificate for Caroline Ginter who died in Milford, Butler County, Ohio on 15 May 1930. The informant was probably her son, Charles. The parents' names were given as Richard Wells and Juline . While that may be entirely correct and the Caroline described in that death certificate may be someone other than the daughter of John Wells and Martha Pierce, I think the informant was just going on whatever information he could muster since his grandfather, if John Wells, died several years before Charles and his grandmother, if Martha Pierce, died the same year that Charles was born.

The full birth date of Len Roe Ginter, b. 21 Aug 1873, Kentucky comes from a World War I draft registration card in which he also names his wife as Caroline.

You'll see the last name spelled Ginter, Gunter and probably some other variations. Caroline will appear as Casey, Caroline, and Lynn. Caroline's age in all of the census records put her at about 5 years older than the earliest census showing John Wells and Martha Pierce with a daughter named Caroline who was listed as 9 years old in 1880.

The family is buried at Hill Grove Cemetery in Miamisburg, Montgomery County, Ohio. You can see photos of the Ginter cemetery markers at Find A Grave.

Andrew served with the Union Army during the Civil War (1862-1864).

On his death certificate, his date of birth is listed as January 4, 1835.

He was the youngest of 10 children born to Jacob and Barbara Ellen (Sagaser) Pierce.

Nancy Pierce McClain(1831-?)
Sarah Pierce McGuire (1832-1874)

According to the 1910 Arkansas Census, Andrew was married 3 times. I only know of Mary Ann Adams (married 1859) and Margaret Lucinda Crawford (married 1890), so I'm guessing the marriage in question took place before 1859.

Other Events:

• Residence: 20 Aug 1850, Morgan County, Kentucky
• Residence: 23 Jul 1860, Morgan County, Kentucky

Notes:

Married:
Various online sources differ between December 24th and December 25th. I have not had the opportunity to review copies of the original documentation, if it exists, and assume the discrepencies may be between a marriage bond date and the date of the actual marriage.

Notes:

A reference to Benjamin Wells may appear in the following book:

The "Corn Stalk" militia of Kentucky, 1792-1811 : a brief statutory history of the militia and records of commissions of officers in the organization from the beginning of statehood to the commencement of the War of 1812 / by G. Glenn Clift.

Benjamin Susannah, (Speculation) about 1793. Susannah about 1770; after 1830. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Married:
Susanah may have been one of as many as three spouses.

Notes:

Birth:
Virginia or perhaps the area that was formed into West Virginia

Died:
Date of death would be some time after 1825 which is the year that William granted permission for a marriage license be issued to his daughter, Sarah.

William Sarah Parsons after 1800Kentucky. Sarah (daughter of Ann) about 1770 Greenbrier County, Virginia; 14 Mar 1852Bath County, Kentucky. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events:

• Residence: 23 Jul 1850, Bath County, Kentucky

Notes:

Name:
Other sources suggest: Elizabeth McQueen with a marriage date of 29 July 1789 in Fauquier County, VA. Reference of that marriage does exist as happening between 29-30 July, 1789 and one of the references lists Elizabeth's father as John McQueen.

An 1852 death record of a Sarah Smith can be found in Bath County, Kentucky. A copy of the record is available here on this page and at Ancestry.com.

Birth:
Greenbrier County is now a part of West Virginia.

Notes:

Married:
Sarah's first husband, Joseph Turner, died in Kentucky sometime before November 1800.
