A little family history...mostly maternal side....

While looking through some papers I was sorting I came to an old address book. There were comments written here and there. I'm going to share what I learned.

1. Nancy Jane Frame Skaggs 6/2/1860 - 4/21/1896 (age 36) was married to Issac Thomas Skaggs and was the mother of Minnie Skaggs Willis. Minnie was my grandmother. She had three children: Lovin, Anna Gladys, and Jessie Mildred. Nancy Jane is burried in the Hockenbury Cemetary, south west from Leitchfield in Sadler Community.


2. Lovin Willis married twice and had two children: Nancy Jane by Mable _ (D) (name sake of Nancy Jane Frame Skaggs) and William Thomas by Marie Hockenbury ( ).


3. Anna Gladys (1910-1993) married Lester Easel Cheal (1908-1967). She had one daughter: Carol Anne Cheal Mollyhorn (2/10/36) married Paul Mollyhorn (12/4/35).


4. Carol had two children: James Scott Mollyhorn (6/3/59) and Jeffrey Dale Mollyhorn (4/29/65).


5. Jessie maried Robert Clark Faulkner (11/4/21-6/26/84) and had four children: Linda Catherine (1/25/49), Joseph (stillborn on 10/15/50), Mary Sue (7/29/52), and John David 12/5/57.


6. Linda married John Patrick Adams (1/27/47) and had three children: Ryan Harris (6/8/72), Amy Willis (6/17/74), and Elizabeth Anne (7/15/86).
   
7. Ryan married Sheila Shuman, divorced; married Virginia Jean Simpson.
   
8. Amy married Paul Timothy (Tim) Marshall (9/25/69) and had three children: Paul Cyrus (Cy) (2/24/97), Griffin Patrick (2/20/99), and Avery Grace (6/6/03).
   
9. Elizabeth married Matthew Vernon Williams (7//) and has one child: Case Matthew (9/28/08).


10. Mary Sue did not marry.


11. John David married Edna Marie Pendelton ( ) and had two children: Jeremiah Joseph (11/2/80) and Caleb Clark (7/7/84).
    
12. Jeremiah married Rachel _ ( ) and has one child: Catherine Elizabeth (9/20/05).
    
13. Caleb married Shea _ ( ) and has two children: JaLyn Paige (6/4/06) and Raiden Skye (3/18/09).

This is my mother's side. There is a family tree and when I have time, I'll post it as well. It will be interesting to see how far back it goes. I believe Carol did most of that research.

Daddy's:

John and Elizabeth Faulkner were the first Faulkner's in America. They arrived on the ship "Agrement" in 1665. This one is Daddy's and I'll work on it later. The boat name might be "Agreement" but it is written "Agrement" in Mama's note. I have a family tree for this side of the family as well. I was instructed to join the Daughters of the American Revolution by my daddy's cousin Marie. She gave me the paperwork and the family tree. She told me to get a copy of Mama and Daddy's wedding certificate and my birth certificate to prove I belonged on the chart. That means my girls and Avery also could join. I never joined. Sometimes I wish I had. Maybe I still will someday!

If you know any of the dates or surnames, please put it in the comment section and I'll edit the piece to make it more correct.
