Crap

Monday, August 18th, 2008

Not a very DAR comment to make, is it ? I was feeling all nice and comfy about Wesley Kerlin- no big secret that he intrigues me most. So, I have him in H.T.”s family plot and the bells are just ringing : of course, as I always suspected, Wesley is the second of the [...]

Cave Hill Cemetery, Again

Saturday, January 12th, 2008

The last few weeks, I have been going over the photos and info that I gathered a few years ago when we spent about 1 hour at Cave Hill Cemetery in Louisville. The Kentucky Death Records are very informative, that is how I could find the address of the last house that Henry lived in. [...]

The Crosswhite Affair

Wednesday, February 8th, 2006

While I haven’t put that information up here yet, I have known for a long time that Wesley had slaves. I was rather surprised, for that did not seem to fit in with the image I had formed of the Kerlins as a family. Imagine my surprise when I tumbled upon the possibility that Wesley’s [...]

Kerlin- Giltner

Tuesday, February 7th, 2006

Trying to locate an uncle or some other older relative that Wesley might have followed up into Kentucky, I looked through the 1840 census for Carroll County. Lot’s of Giltners, no Kerlins. Then I stumbled upon this : The Hoaglands’ ancestor, Okey, married Mary Giltner, who was John Francis and Catharine’s g-granddaughter. Okey Hoagland was [...]

Marriages

Tuesday, February 7th, 2006

Today I received an email from Dad containing scans of the information that I had requested of the Clerk of Carroll County, Kentucky. The first is of Wesley’s marriage to Sarah Giltner. It tells me no more than that they were married October 7, 1844 by a Methodist minister named I. Sollard. The second is [...]
