Date: Mon, 27 Sep 1999 13:57:46 EDT From: AllysonMT@aol.com Subject: Re: Kersey kinship in Ohio! Shannon, Anmarie and Pansylea --- I think the Virginia connection is definitely a possibility. My Kersey aunts originally insisted the family was from Virginia, but I have never found any information to back that up. They also insisted we were related to President William Harrison, and that's how our William got his name. Curiously, our William Harrison Kersey was born before Harrison became president; however, he was a governor of Ohio and a hero in the Indian wars at the time of birth of our W.H. Kersey, so it's possible that there's no relation. I have looked into the wills and family trees of the Harrisons and found only one Kersey -- Mary M. Sidway, the widow of Benjamin Harrison I (father of William Henry Harrison), left a cow in her will in 1787 to John Kersey. It does not state what the relationship is between them, if any, but it's enough to pique my curiosity. Obviously there were Kersey members in Virginia in the middle-to-late 1700s, so it's highly possible that there is a relationship. More family history mystery!!! Allyson Monroe Tilton

From other sources including this list, I have William Harrison Kersey b. 1854 son of James Kersey and Cynthis Craigo. Can anyone confirm that these two Williams are the same person?

I didn't see Jessie or any of my uncles, so I may have a whole new branch for you. I have a kersey book that my relation in Ky sent me that has copies of death certificates, wills, military records and etc... Since I am in Salt Lake City, I have access to the Mormon library here. My brother, Danie Ray Kersey (retired) actually does this more than I do as I still have a day job, home business and starting another. I forwarded your mail to him, so I am sure you will be hearing from him. Let me know what I can do to help and thanks for the contact. If you get up this way, give me a call so we can meet. 801 328-8737 Billie J. Kersey Father Billie Kersey Grandfather Jessie Kersey
