Notes
a. Note:   Many facts of Nancy Reese's life are remembered in John Leonidas Vick's Vick family history.Excerpts from John Leonidas Vick's History of His Vick Family Cullman, Alabama, December 1895: My parents had formed an acquaintance and became lovers before father taught the school in North Carolina. Their intention was to marry about Christmas 1811 but Grandma opposed the marriage. My step-father was infavor of the match and tried to prevail with Grandma to consent, but in vain. Father finally told Grandma thatthey intended to marry any how, she became terribly enraged and ordered them both off her place and told them never to darken her door again and they never did.On the 31 day of January 1812, Arthur Vick and Nancy Reese went in a buggy across the line into NorthCarolina and were married. They returned the same day to a farm father had rented. Mother had to give up allher goods except the clothes she wore. Father Arthur Vick was twenty-four years old and Mother Nancy Reesewas sixteen when they married. Father had a good English education and Mother could read and write but never studied arithmetic. Father was 5ft. 9in. high, weighed 135 pounds, had deep blue eyes, dark hair and beard, a small mouth, heavy eye brows, a serious look, did not laugh and talk much, his sense of smell was acute, he was an excellent reader, loved books, was regular in his habits. He never studied music, but had a good voice and knew a number of tunes. He never drank to excess but kept spirits and generally took a moderate dram before meals. He was remarkably strong and active for a man of his size. Mother was nearly as tall as father, she weighed 130 pounds when young, had large hazel eyes, light hair, full round rosy cheeks, fair skin, rather large mouth, with full lips, a pleasant look, but was subject to spells of despondency when she looked sad. She had a musical voice, and knew many tunes, but never studied music. She was not a good reader and read but little. My parents lived alone the first year, made a good crop, paid their rent and rented the same farm for the next year. On the 31st day of Jan. 1813 just one year from the day they married, their first child, a daughter was born and named Lucy Jane. On Friday the fifth day of June, 1813, father was drafted into the army and was required to report at Jamestown, his county seat, 11 miles from where he lived, the next morning for duty. He spent Saturday and Sunday trying to hire a hand, but failed. He urged Mother to go back to her Mother, but she refused. He succeeded in getting a little negro girl to stay with Mother, and she and the child finished the crop and got along all right. The captain of father's company was named Dillard and that was where your Uncle Dillard got his name. Father was stationed at Norfolk, Va. and served from June till November. He was not in any battle. My parents lived in their native county and state until the fall of 1815 when they moved to Edgecombe County, North Carolina where they lived on a rented farm for four years. They had two children born while they lived in North Carolina. The second child, and first son, born January 21st. 1816 and named for his grandfather Shadrach Rivers; the third child was a daughter born April 14th 1818 and named Martha Reese. In the fall of 1819 my parents moved to Livingston County, Kentucky. They arrived there on the 21st day of December 1819 and bought land and settled at what is now known as the Adam's Spring, and where the Adams Schoolhouse is located.
 I must now record the greatest affliction I had yet experienced. My dear mother had grown very fleshy, the last time she weighed, I think in the summer of 1849 she weighed 240 lbs. In Nov. 1849 her right side was paralysed and she lay for weeks unable to move her right hand or foot. She finally got a little better and was able to walk by dragging that foot. She could sew and knit and superintend her household duties. On Saturday night, January 10 1852 set in one of the worst snow storms I ever saw. The snow fell steadily for nearly 24 hours, and was 18 to 20 inches deep when the storm ceased Sunday. That night it was cold and I dreamed my father and I were cutting out a fence row and along the row I saw a plum tree in full bloom and said to my father we will get to the plum tree by dinner if we work hard. Monday AM I told my dream at breakfast. Mother said to me, son:"To dream of anything out of Season You will soon see trouble out of reason"That day my dear old Mother was struck dead apoplexy or paralysis. Thus father and I had reached the greatestgrief of our lives at dinner and Mothers words had come true. Mother was a member of the Methodist Churchand in the absence of father she held family prayer at night. The 12th of January never passes without my Mothers sudden death being again seriously impressed upon my mind.
