Martin [email protected]@aol.com Anna Lou's Ancestor's Sharen Neal [email protected]@aol.com Families of Sequoyah County, OK & Others ---------------------- Posted by Ruth Hoggatt <[email protected]@seidata.com> on Thu, 16 Dec 1999 From "History of Dearborn & Ohio Counties," 1885. (IN) Benjamin MOULTON, an octogenarian, who lived down on Willow Creek, in this township, and died in 1878, some years before his death said, "I came here with my father in 1802, at which time there were twenty Indians to one white man, but they were peaceable on this side of the Ohio." Shortly after coming a sad accident deprived him of his father, mother, and youngest brother. "We were living in a shanty at the mouth of Grant's Creek; the back water in the creek drove us out, and we camped for the night on high ground, near a dead black ash tree; during the night, this tree fell across the party, killing my father, mother, and younger brother, instantly, and fractured the skull of my brother, Bill, who is older and now lives up the creek. There were eight children of us, all boys, sleeping around the old folks. Note: Most Moulton researchers have placed Jeremiah's dob: 15 Mar 1803. One places his dob 15 Mar 1801 because of the above History, indicating that both parents died in 1802 but his wife gave his dob 1803 on probate records. I believe that he was born earlier, as the youngest son (James S.?) was said to have died with the parents. The 1860 Woodford County, IL Census shows Jeremiah - age 60, which would place his birth at late 1799 to early 1800. Thomas Benton was born 14 Nov 1800. 15 March 1800 for Jeremiah would be a little close, but possible. 15 March 1801 is only 4 months after Thomas B.'s birth. |
