| 103 | Below are some brief stories my grandfather told me of growing up around Hinton, Kentucky. When Howard was growing up, there were no theaters in the area, no radiosand the television had not yet been invented. For entertainment, people would walk to the homes of friends and relatives to play Rook, Checkers, and Dominoes. On Saturdays everyone would go to Hinton, KY to socialize. Some of the boys would connect one end of a wire to the coils of the Ford Automobiles and the other end to any metal part on another car. When someone got into the second car, they would get a shock. His Parents bought thier first car in 1929, a 1925 Model T Ford. They also bought a radio around the same time, an Atwater Kent, in Williamstown, Kentucky. Howard remembers listening to Jack Dempsy fights over the radio. After World War II, some saloons bought TV's and people would come in and watch while they had a drink. Howard graduated from Renaker High School which was located outside of Cynthiana, KY. His High School Prom was held in the Masonic Lodge in Corinth, KY. Howard and Della where married and divorced twice. The first marriage took place in 1936 and the second in 1949. Some time after the 1949 divorce, Howard and Della's four daughters, who were being cared for in a private home by a third party, were turned over and became Wards of the Court. The private home was in Park Hills which is in Kenton County, Kentucky. The girls were then sent to an orphanage called The Covington Protestant Children's Home for six years. The orphanage was founded in 1882 and still exists today under the name, Children's Home of Northern Kentucky. Howard married Ruby Jean Barkeloo in 1953 and eventually they were able to gain custody of the girls at which time they were adopted by Jean, as everyone called her. | Boyle, Howard Francis (I335)

| 105 | Below is a record of a marriage that is of questionable quality in the index where found. There are things that are right and yet, just as many that are wrong, that perhaps this record is a mix of multiple marriages between two families.

| 106 | Below is a transcript of the Last Will and Testament of William Terrill as found on the Internet and also a digital copy of the Will which I retrieved from Microfilm to share with everyone (DJS - 29 Mar 2013). The Will of William Terrill: Orange County, Virginia: Will Book 7, p. 242 - 244. It appears that after settlement of all the debts of the instant William Terrill, each legatee's portion of the estate amounted to $14.94 having been equally divided into five parts. The inventory of the estate may be located in the Orange County Will Book 7, at page 269; dated 6 August 1830. It was additionally referenced in Will Book 7, at page 317, dated 19 November 1830. "In the name of God Amen. I William Terrll (sp) of the county of Orange, being weak in body, but of perfect sound mind and memory and calling to mind the mortality of my body, do make and ordain this my last will and testament in the following manner. It is my will and desire that all my just debts be paid by my executor herein after named. 2nd, I give to Robert, George and Bookey (three boys of color) the tract of land which I hold adjoing the tract of land that I gave to my son Edmond Terrell (by) deed and the lands of Alexander Wright and others which tract of land I formerly gave to my son John Terrell deed which said tract of land is by this my will, to be to them, the said Robert Geroge and Bookey and their heirs of assigns forever, and is to be equally divided between them and they the said Robert, George and Bookey is by this my will to be free immediately after my decease and is to take the said land into their immediate possession. 3rd, I lend to my beloved wife Nancy Terrill all the balance of my estate, not mentioned above for and during her natural life, for her comfort and supoport. 4th, after the death of my wife, I give to my son James Terrill, one Hundred and fifty acres of land to be laid off from the tract on which I now reside to begin at the corner between Tartan (?)

| 107 | Below, stories passed down to me, David J. Schimka, from my grandfather, Howard Francis Boyle. Katherine's parents owned land and slaves. When their children were grown they were given some land and a number of horses. During the Civil War, Union and Confederate soldiers would stop at their home to take flour and exchange their tired horses for fresh ones. Kate outlived her daughter Maude. After Robert died, she tried to live at her home but wasn't able to. She then lived with her daughter Maude and finally with her daughter Cora after Maude died. She died in Ludlow, Kenton County, Kentucky while she was living with Cora. Maude lived until 1933 so Kate's death date is during or after 1933. I don't know when or where Cora died. | Skinner, Nancy Katherine (I105)

| 108 | Benjamin Clements was not found in the 1788 Personal Property Tax Lists in Montgomery County. | Combs, Henry Harrison (I1038)
|
| 109 | 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. | Phillips, Benjamin Franklin (I25)
|
| 110 | Benjamin's estate went through probate and an estate sale was held in December 1813. The estate was administered by James Clement. | Clements, Benjamin (Speculation - This Benjamin may not be the son of Benjamin Clements of Pittsylvania County, VA - See Notes) (I3440)

| 122 | Birth: Jan. 2, 1835 West Liberty Morgan County Kentucky, USA Death: Aug. 6, 1929 Flippin Marion County Arkansas, USA 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.

| 125 | Bonaparte told the Reverend John Jay Dickey, in 1898, that he was born in Perry County, Kentucky in 1808. Perry County was formed in 1821 from Clay and Floyd Counties making his place of birth in one of former counties but within the area that is now Perry County, Kentucky. He also stated that he voted for Andrew Jackson in what he thought was the second term which aligns fairly close to the birth year he gave in this interview. | Combs, Napoleon Bonaparte (I3861)
|
| 126 | Bond was made on the 13th of May. | Family F1173
|
| 127 | Born in Clay or Floyd County in a part which became Perry County. In his interview with John Jay Dickey, he stated Perry County, Kentucky as his place of birth. Perry County was formed from parts of Clay and Floyd Counties November 26, 1821, after John S Combs' stated date of birth. | Combs, John S (I3842)
|
| 128 | Both the 1910 and the 1920 Census enumerations of Theresa state that she immigrated to the United States in 1903. It's a little difficult to make out in the 1910 Census but a careful analysis will reveal the lower hook of the number three. | Ricci, Theresa Victoria (I1114)

|
| 143 | 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 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. http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gsr&GSiman=1&GScid=41423&GSfn=&GSln=Ginter | Wells, Caroline (I2756)
