My great great grandmother Nancy Claybrook married John Berry in Cole Couty MO on Sept. 15, 1822. This was one of the earliest marriages celebrated in Cole County, not very long after its founding.
According to the 1850 and 1860 U.S. censuses for Cole County Nancy Claybrook was born in KY. She died Dec. 13, 1865 and her gravestone on the Old Berry Farm south of Russellville says that she was age 59, which would put her year of birth as 1806.
This is all I know about her.
Does anyone have any information on her ancestry?

Welcome, Jim. I just started this list recently, and you are the first
Claybrook researcher to post to it.

I guess I am too. The farthest-back I have found is 1850. My last
Claybrook-named ancestor was my grandmother Margaret (~1892-1980), who
married Charles Earnest Rush in Harrison, Arkansas. I used to have
information about her father and grandfather, but lost it all while
moving. I seem to remember James Claybrook moving from Washington Co.,
Kentucky, to Steiner, Texas, in the 1850s.

I too, although I have woefully little to share now. I would love to
have your data. If you have it in a GED file, that would be great. If
text only, that's welcome, too.

Hi list,
I am new to this list and will try my best to conform.
I hail from the central Kentucky Claybrooke clan that migrated from Amelia Co. Virginia to Washington Co. Kentucky in November 1815. There are only 4 males of that branch remaining, 3 of which are beyond the normal age to father children. The 4 th. resulted from a dysfunctional union where the father was killed and the Mother may have changed the name. I have been unable to locate either the Mother or the children.
I have extensive data on the above branch and another that migrated to North Carolina and Tennessee. It seems that all branches have eventually ended up in Texas, Oklahoma or Missouri however they are scattered all over the world today.
I am willing to share any and all data that I have and can hopefully fill in many blanks with information I anticipate from this list.
