Richard Matthews" Date: Tue, 15 Jul 1997 14:52:27 -0500 Subject: KY-F: CEM: MSG: Bell Co Cems The reason I got involved coping cemeteries: I was talking with a person in another state and he asked me if I was aware of KYgenweb. I hadn't even heard of it until about three days before I stated copying records. He told me how that kygenweb was a model for all the other states in the USA. And when I went to the site and found that 99% of the sites didn't have anything on them except Queries. I decided that if we were to set the standards for the rest of the world, then we need information posted so the rest of the world would have something to shoot for. I'm on disability and doing this by myself and thats why I had Trice to send the message she sent. There must be a 100 cemeteries in Bell Co. One five mile stretch has six. One in a persons front yard. I'm slow at typing and after being out in the sun all day, tired. I just don't have the time to send copies to everyone that missed a part and these will all be posted where you can download them anyway. And downloading them in form that they will be posted in, is a lot neater and nicer than a hundred e-mails. If you would like to help then you can take a cemetery and cross reference the names to Ky Vital records and perhaps add the missing dates, get a full name instead of initials. Send to me and I'll see that a correction is posted. If you know the names of people buried in a cemetery, let me know. All of these cemeteries have unmarked graves. If you have a copy of burials in a cemetery thats not posted I need those. If you know where a cemetery is located in Bell Co. I need that. No one that I can find knows where they are all located. Thank you for your understanding and help. CR ------------------------------ From: "C.

WALLACE is the son of William and Louisa (Bridgewater) Wallace, the parents being natives of Fayette County, Ky., the fathers's birth occurring in 1808, and the mother's in 1812. They came to this county at an early day, where they settled. The paternal grandfather, Alexander, was also a prominent early settler and served in the Legislature. He was a man of more than ordinary brain and character. The same is true of his son William and his grandson John A. Both William and his wife died well respected and honored, in 1874, after a useful life. John A. has been all his life a farmer and now has a pleasant home (Orleans Township). In 1862 he enlisted in Company E, Sixty-sixth Regiment Indiana Volunteer Infantry, and served until the close of the war. At the disastrous battle of Richmond, Ky., he was captured and held a prisoner of war eight days. He was afterward at Collierville, Atlanta, Dallas, Jonesboro and other engagements of less note, serving bravely through them all. His first wife was Susan, daughter of William and Elizabeth Irwin, who bore him one child--Louella. His second wife, Sarah A. Sappenfield, bore him two children: Estella and John A. Mr. Wallace is one of the county's best farmers. He is a Republican and a member of the Christian Church.

Reuben Warren, his grandfather, was a Virginian by birth, but moved to Crab Orchard Springs, Ky., when it was a wilderness filled with wild Indians. He there lived in a fort and distinguished himself as an Indian fighter, and finally became owner of what is now the Crab Orchard Springs, a celebrated summer resort. He died at Fulton, Miss., at the ripe old age of ninety years. In 1834 Nathan Warren, father of James, together with his family, moved to Orange County, Ind., where he followed farming until his death, April 20, 1873. James Warren was raised on the farm, secured a fair education from the common schools of his day, and, like his father, has made farming his vocation through life. In 1851, he married Ruth A. Van Cleave, a native of Orange County, who died in 1867, leaving five children, named: Benjamin N., Jasper A., Hiram E., James A. and Mary E. December 24, 1869, he married his second wife, then Martha J., daughter of John and Polly (Walker) Elliott, who were among Orange County's pioneers from Kentucky. Mrs. Warren was here born September 24, 1845, and her four children are: John T., Lettie M., Sarah A. and Harley F. Mr. Warren is a Republican, a member of the Baptist Church, and Mrs. Warren belongs to the Methodist Episcopal Church.
