Footnotes

  1. U.S. Census; 1860 Mason County, Kentucky.
  2. U.S. Census; 1850 Mason County, Kentucky.
  3. Assumed.
    He was recorded in the 1860 census, but his wife was recorded as a widow in the 1870 census.
  4. U.S. Census; 1850 Mason County, Kentucky.
  5. U.S. Census; 1860 Mason County, Kentucky.
  6. Assumed.
    I believe the cemetery marker in Maysville Cemetery is hers. It reads: "Mrs. Margaret Ravencraft 1907."
  7. U.S. Census; 1870 Mason County, Kentucky.
  8. U.S. Census; 1880 Mason County, Kentucky.
  9. U.S. Census; 1900 Nicholas County, Kentucky.
    She is living with her daughter and son-in-law Jennie and James Arthur.
  10. Estimated.
  11. Cemetery marker.
    The stone gives his name and the date 1849. I am assuming this is a son of John and Margaret's because he is buried in the same plot as other family members. This is supported by Margaret's 1900 census entry which indicates that she had given birth to six children.
  12. U.S. Census; 1900 Nicholas County, Kentucky.
  13. U.S. Census; 1870 Mason County, Kentucky.
  14. U.S. Census; 1900 Nicholas County, Kentucky.

  19. Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints; Salt Lake City, UT, International Genealogical Index [IGI].
  20. U.S. Census; 1870 Mason County, Kentucky.
  21. Assumed.
    I believe she is buried in the same cemetery lot as her mother. The stone reads: Alice D. Gill 1853-1908.
  22. Estimated.
  23. Cemetery marker.
    The stone has her name and the date 1859. I am assuming this is a daughter of John and Margaret's since she is buried in the same plot with other family members. This is supported by Margaret's 1900 census entry which indicates that she had given birth to six children.
  24. U.S. Census; 1860 Mason County, Kentucky.
