| 51 | According to the interview of Rebecca Maggard-Combs by the Reverend John Jay Dickey in 1898, Elizabeth Combs married someone with the surname, Creech who "was killed in the war." Presumably that was the Civil War. | Creech (I3883)

| 52 | According to the NSDAR Record Copy application for Member Number M732521 (Roberta Denise Foster Korzenborn) pertaining to Ancestor Number A097441 (Francis Robinson), a Will exists for Thomas T. Thompson in the Grant County, Kentucky, Will Book F, pages 257-260. There does not seem to be any reference to microfilmed copies of Will Book F so a copy of the Will may only be obtainable from the Grant County courthouse. Other records related to the Will or Probate are to be found in other books that have been microfilmed as referenced and included with Thomas T. Thompson's record here. | Thompson, Thomas T (I774)

| 59 | 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. | Warner, James (I3)

| 60 | After the death of their father, Charles Estes and his siblings made an attempt to recover any unpaid monies due to his father's estate for service rendered during the Revolutionary War. This is a copy of that rejected pension file numbered R3201. The attorney chosen to act on the behalf of Charles Estes was from the town of Proctor which in 1856 was within the boarders of Owsley County which was formed in part from Estill County in 1843. Proctor now lies within the borders of Lee County, Kentucky which was created in part from Owsley County in 1870. The five "surviving" children of Brazil Estes are named in this document. In addition to this rejected pension, Brazil gave a declaration in court in Clay County, Kentucky stating that he knew Thomas Philpot during the Siege of 96 in South Carolina. The court found that sufficient evidence was presented to proove that Thomas Philpot had served in the Revolution and that Brazil Estes was of sufficient age to have been in the Revolution. The NSDAR recognizes Thomas Philpot as a patriot ancestor and he is recorded as Ancestor Number A205976. Attached to the record of Brazil Estes, I have included only those select pages from the Thomas Philpot pension file that pertain to Brazil Estes. | Estes, Brazil (I618)

| 61 | After the Oliver is anchored off Virginia, she is caught in a winter storm that drives the ship into shallow water where many of her passengers and crew drown or die of exposure. Approximately two thirds of the passengers and crew died on the passage over and the loss of the ship while anchored off the Virginia colony. Whether Hermann Bach was definitely a passenger aboard The Oliver has apparently not been conclusively proven but, the evidence is said to be strong based upon the list of individuals who left Freudenberg, Germany in 1738 and those "survivors" who later appear in the records of the Germanna Colony in Virginia. The story of The Oliver has been around for quite some time and was pieced together by researchers with access to more records than myself such as historians Klaus Wust (1925-2003) and John Blankenbaker; use this information at your own discretion. | Bach, Hermann (I772)

| 63 | All freeborn males were required to take an oath of allegiance including a renunciation of all allegiance to King George III of Great Britain. Benjamin Clements Sr. and Benjamin Clements Jr. were among the list of William Ward in Pittsylvania County, Virginia.

| 80 | An interview of John S. Combs by the Reverend John Jay Dickey Transcription by David James Schimka March 17, 2012 (Original spelling and an extra word or two left unchanged) John S. Combs - Hazzard, Ky, April 26, 1898. I was born in Perry Co., Ky. August 25, 1819. My father was Jeremiah Combs. He was born in North Carolina or Virginia. My grandfather was Nicholas Combs. He was born in Virginia or New River, N.C. He lived and died near where L.D. Combs now lives in Perry County. He came came to Kentucky early in the settlement of Kentucky. There was a large company came together. Mason, George, Nicholas, William, Jeremiah, Byrom, Elijah Combs. There was one other whose name I cannot recall, yes, Henry was his name. Mason was the oldest. I have seen all of these uncles. Byrom moved to Indiana; Wm moved to the Blue Grass. I do not know wether or not General Leslie Combs was kin to us but, I suppose he was a son of my uncle Wm Combs, as they both lived in that section of the state. Uncle Wm moved to the Blue Grass before I was born. My father died in January 1853 aged 73, this would place his birth at 1780. He was not grown when he came here. I have often heard my father and mother and uncles say that the Combses came from Jamestown, Va. to North Carolina. My father had two brothers, Samuel, how lived at Booneville, the father of Wiley Combs, and Nicholas, the father of Lorenzo, one sister who married John Williams who died on Troublesome. My mother was Sytha Sumner. Her father was Samuel Sumner who was killed by the Sheriff for resisting arrest either in N.C. or Ky. My mother came with the company to Ky. her brother, John, came also. He moved to Indiana but some of his children returned and live in Letcher and Perry. My grandmother Sumner married a Hicks and went to Indiana and raised a family. Two of my uncles, Hickses lived on the Ozark Mts. in the edge of Arkansas, when I was there. Nicholas Combs, my grandfather, was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. Several of his brothers were in the same war. I can't tell which ones were in the war, they may all have been in it. Old Wm Cornett came with my uncles to Ky.; also Richard Smith, greatgrandfather of "Bad" Tom Smith. He settled on Troublesome. I have heard my mother tell often of the killing of Benge, the renegade. She saw the Indians and told of one fellow hiding in the loft and and falling through while the Indians were cooking below and scaring them away. Mason Combs, my uncle, had children as follows:- Martin, lived on Carr's Fork; Preston, lived in Breathitt on the Middle Fork, Cyry Combs is son; Washington lived below mouth of Carr on North Fork; Talton Combs, at the mouth of Carr; Clinton still lives at mouth of Carr, very old; Bonaparte, lived at Booneville. George Combs had children as follows:- Claiborne lived in Owsley, Byrom dead. Elijah lived in Perry. He was General of the malitia. He had sons: Jesse, Elijah, and Jackson. Josiah Combs who was killed by Joe Adkins was the son of Jesse. Jesse was Clerk (of Perry) first and as long as he lived, and his grandson, Ira Davidson, succeeded him. I have seen him (Gen. Elijah) in his regimentals, commanding at the musters. He (Jesse) was killed by the explosion of a keg of powder in Shade Duff's store in Hazzard. Some one snuffed a candle and accidentally threw the snuff in the keg of powder under the counter. Duff was son-in-law of Combs. Both Duff and Combs were killed. Duff was killed instantly Combs lay a good while. Henry Harry Combs had children as follows:- Henry, lived in Big Creek; Matthew lived on Troublesome in Breathitt father of Wm M. Combs of Breathitt and Isaac of Wolfe; also George on Troublesome in Perry. Henry moved to Indiana. Old George married a Herald. I do not know when the Combses came to Kentucky but I know it was in (the) 1700(s). My grandfather Nicholas Combs lived be 101 or 2 or 3 years old. He is burried near L.D. Combs. I was grown when he died. I was married, just married, had no children, (He looked at his Bible. J.J.D.) was Feb. 28, 1838. I bought his dog irons at his sale. to go to housekeeping. The old Sizemores used to come to my father's to get liquor. They would drink and fight. | Combs, John S (I3842)

| 82 | Angeline's death certificate erroneously recorded John Warner and Lizzie Phillips as her parents. Note that the informant for this death certificate was Mrs. Ollie Corman (Mary Jane Winkle-Corman). Mary Jane was the granddaughter of Angeline Warner and was born approximately 30-40 years after the death of Angeline's parents and at the time of Angeline's death, Mary Jane would have been reporting on the names of her great grandparents who died 60-70 years earlier. | Warner, Angeline (I1480)
|
| 83 | Anna's residence at the time of her death was 1132 Thacker street, Des Plaines, Ill., so Chicago as the place of death might be incorrect. | Frana, Anna (I224)
|
| 84 | Another birth date found is 22 Mar 1811 | Harris, Boales (I3381)
|
| 85 | Another Name Possiblity Loala J. Conrad | Conrad, Gooly (I3372)

| 86 | Another possible location is Perry County. There is a matching marriage date for one, Joseph Buck in Perry County, KY. | Family F412

| 90 | APR 1781 Enlisted in North Carolina (Revolutionary War) 25 MAY 1781 Joined the 10th Regiment under Captain Thomas Donahue 25 MAY 1782 Discharged from Service in South Carolina ABT. FEB 1822 Moved his family from Monroe County, Virginia (now Monroe County, West Virginia) to Scott County, Virginia. 1825 Moved his family from Scott County, Virginia to Estill County, Kentucky 29 MAY 1830 Inscribed on the Roll of The Kentucky Agency 29 MAY 1830 Certificate of Pension Issued Around February of 1822 Zachariah Phillips moved his family from Monroe County, Virginia to Scott County, Virginia ( Records show Scott County, Virginia but, this Scott County may actually have been in Kentucky). In 1825 the family moved again from Scott County, Kentucky to Estill County, Kentucky. Two variations of death dates have been found. One from the DAR (1836) and the other from the ancestral file (1839). The 1839 date is probably closer to fact because according to Estill County records, "20 Jan. 1840, Letters of adm. granted to Benjamine Phillips on estate of Zachariah Phillips dec." Given this information, the date closer to 1840 is probably most accurate. | Phillips, Zachariah (I1100)
|
| 91 | Archelaus was NOT born in Wilkes County, North Carolina. Wilkes County did not come into existence until 1777, many years after his birth. If you assume that Archelaus was born in Wilkes County, you have to go all the way back to 1734, to the formation of Bladen County from New Hanover County to find the county name at the time of his birth. The "New" in New Hanover County MIGHT be related to the statement regarding place of birth that Archelaus made in his pension file. While there appears to be four characters in the word (see previous note), the first three appear to be "N E W". Further, Archelaus stated that he moved away from the county of his birth at an early age. | Craft, Archelaus Sr (I706)
|
| 92 | As of February 2014, there was still a Sacred Heart Hospital in Eau Claire, Eau Claire County, Wisconsin which is probably the same hospital that is mentioned in Mary's obituary. | Taplin, Mary E (I4358)
|
| 93 | As to the actual ship being the Oliver may be conjecture and was put forth by historians with a more focused interest with regard to members of Germanna in the British colony of Virginia. To date, I have never seen direct evidence; what I documented here, with regard to the immigration, leans heavily upon the research of others. Use at your own discretion. (DJS) | Bach, Hermann (I772)
|
| 94 | Asberry's death certificate states that he was born in Owsley County however, Owsley County was created June 1st, 1843 so technically, Asberry was born in another county; probably Estill. | Estes, Asberry (I2003)

| 95 | Assault and Battery: Charles Lee (a colored man) vs. Spencer Faulkner, defendant. The Defendant did not appear in court. Jury: Robert C. Bratton John McCullock Moses Scott Alfred Hayes Archibald Norton George Williams Joseph Jump Francis Robinson John Williams Verdict: for the plaintiff who is awarded $19 in damages. 24 May 1833, pages 431+, 438. | Robinson, Francis (I2058)
|
| 96 | At the time of writing, this was an unsourced document. If you examine the document carefully, you can make out the print on a stamp dated 1901. This stamp indicates that the document was received in a U.S. Pension office and is presumably part of a Civil War pension file; probably a Window's Pension and this was probably a document obtained from court records to present to the pension office as proof of marriage.

| 99 | Author of an, Account of Sweden together with an Extract of the History of that Kingdom. By a person of note who resided many years there (London, 1695). A copy of the book is available in various eBook formats at the Internet Archive, www.archive.org Read the Book In "A Biographical History of England from the Revolution to the end of King George I's Reign Vol. II," a person who knew the Bishop of London is quoted as to his appearance and character as follows, " a little brown man, of a grave and venerable countenance; very charitable, and good humoured; strictly religious himself, and who took that care he could to make others so. He was very careful in whatever he undertook. Divinity and policy had pretty much equally divided his time; and, as few, if any, had made a better progress in either of them, so he could not but be always an ornament, as well as and advantage to his country." | Robinson, John Bishop of London (I2803)
