It has been a long time since I was there. What did your researcher find? My email address is lindajo40368(a)yahoo.com, it might be easier than using the ancestry site.

Thanks.
I have information from the cemetery that my researcher gathered at the cemetery, but it's probably the same as you found at the courthouse.
I'll keep you posted if I find anything further.

Some from the census and some from death certificates. John L. Peters death cert 11 Jun 1854, parents Thomas and Elizabeth. Martin Peters death cert also states parents Thomas and Elizabeth. At the Breck Co court house there is a cemetery record that has Martin buried at the Peters Cemetery in Breck Co.I may not have all the children, as I had a hard time finding much on the Peters.

I'd love to know what you discovered in Kentucky about Martin and Emily, if you have time.

Linda,
Here's something on the Wests:
Alexander1 West was born 1776 in Virginia, and died April 12, 1852 in Breckinridge County, Kentucky. He married Mary Burton November 24, 1795.
Children of Alexander West and Mary Burton are:
2. i. BRYANT2 WEST, d. Bef. 1852, Kentucky.
3. ii. ELIZABETH M. WEST, b. Abt. 1795; d. August 17, 1852, Frymire, Breckinridge County, Kentucky.
4. iii. WILLIAM JAMES WEST, b. April 01, 1801, Wayne County, Kentucky; d. April 06, 1852, Breckinridge County, Kentucky.
5. iv. BRONSON MONROE WEST, b. February 18, 1803, Kentucky; d. December 17, 1874, Stephensport, Breckinridge County, Kentucky.
6. v. MARY ANN WEST, b. 1810.
7. vi. NANCY WEST, b. 1811; d. September 14, 1838, Breckinridge County, Kentucky.
8. vii. EMILY WEST, b. December 18, 1814; d. August 14, 1874.
9. viii. PHERREBY WEST, b. 1817.
8. Emily2 West (Alexander1) was born December 18, 1814, and died August 14, 1874. She married James B. Bennett.
The best way to read this is by going to the Hall-Coker Family Web site. I haven't found anything to dispute in the work there.
I'll see if I can get more information. I'm a little unorganized right now, but I know I have a list of the family who died at the same time Alexander did.
Question: Where did you find the names for Thomas and Elizabeth Peters' children? I have conflicting information and am curious. The death list shows Martin Peters' parents as Thomas and Elizabeth, as you no. I have information from a researcher I hiredy years ago that shows (when Martin and Emily applied to be married) that he listed his father as William and her father as John.
I know a lot of time the death certificate/lists do have errors as they're only as good as the person's knowledge who fills them out, so I've been leaning toward William - after all Martin himself gave that information.
Just wondering how you got the children's names as that could solve my mystery.
Thanks.
Andrea

I know they're James Bennett and Emily West. The Bennetts are a complete mystery to me. I haven't found anything on James. I believe he was born in Kentucky.
Emily West is the daughter of Alexander West (he was born in Virginia) and Mary "Polly" Burton. I know Alexander and several other members of his family died of small pox. He was living with a son in Kentucky at the time. I'll gather my information for you. Mary Burton - no idea on her yet.
I know Martin Peters' father is William Peters and he was born in Virginia. Nothing has come up on William for me yet. He's been hiding from me for a long time.
Also, Emily Chenault's father is named John. Another mystery.
I'll be in touch in a day or two with what I have about the Wests. If you'd like to send me your e-mail, I'd be happy to respond that way.
Please feel free to write to me at amills(a)gallatinriver.net.

Do you know Josie Bennett's parents? I cannot find much on them. I have quite a bit on Martin Peters and Emily Chenault. I recently visited gravesites and found more on them.

Linda,
I'm descended from James Washington Peters. He married Josephine Bennett, the daughter of James Bennett and Emily West. Washington's parents were Martin Peters and Emily Chenault - Emily is the daughter of John Chenault. They all lived in the Meade, Hardin, Breckinridge area of Kentucky. I have many gaps but am willing to share what I have.
