SMALLWOOD ECTON was born in Clark County, Ky., May 13, 1819, where he resided until he 
was twenty years old. He then moved to Henry County and located on a farm, the pursuits 
of which he followed until two years ago, when he sold out and bought a house in 
Pleasureville, where he now resides. His parents, Thomas and Sarah (Kelley) Ecton, 
were, respectively, natives of Virginia and Kentucky, the former emigrating from his 
native state and locating in Clark County, Ky., about 1796. His grandfather, Smallwood 
Ecton, was also born in Virginia, and served under Washington in the Revolutionary war. 
In 1848 our subject was united in marriage with Millie Curtis, of Clark County, and one 
child has blessed their union--James. Mr. Ecton is a member of the Methodist Church, 
a Good Templar and a Democrat.
