Miscellaneous info, and Nuggets from recent Correspondence: |

Dubious Publishers: We all get the mail-order come-ons, from Bath, Ohio, Denver, |
Colorado, etc.; Family Book has "The World Book of McAninches" ("first McAninch ... |
came to Philadelphia in 1837 ... name was James"), and Family News Network has |
"Three Centuries of McAninchs" (wonder how much they really have on "McAninch"). |
Recommendation: save your money. |
Iowa, 1850 Census: "Samuel McAninch, 21, carpenter, b.Kentucky" [ca.1829?], |
listed with John Ellyson family [boarder?], Cedar County, Iowa Twp, pg 88. |
[possibly Samuel James McAninch, b. 1828, Casey County, KY, son of |
Samuel McAninch and Polly Skidmore, later mar. Mary Jane Barker, 1858 (Iowa?)] |
Kentucky, 1793: Jacob Boone, Limestone, holding ... letters that came down the |
Ohio River on the packet boat: ... "John M'Ninch of Kentucky" ...; Kentucky Gazette, |
Vol. VII, Number XIII, 14 December 1793, in book The Kentucky Gazette 1787-1800, |
Genealogical and Historical Abstracts, by Karen Maurer Green, published 1983, |
Gateway Press, Baltimore, MD. |
Kentucky: Surprisingly, all "Early Marriages of Lincoln County" books, |
Shirley Dunn et al, are wrong re "Samuel McAninch m. Catherine Carter". |
In Lincoln County's own Court House index of "Mc" marriages, page 199, the 1812 |
entry "Joseph McCormack - Catherine Carter" is one line above the 1813 entry |
"Samuel McAninch - Polly Skidmore". The marriage bonds and consent forms for |
both marriages are clearly "McCormack", in 1812, and "McAninch" in 1813, although |
the outer envelope is marked "McInch". Presumably, some earlier researcher made |
a transcription error, which has been copied and re-copied over many years. |

Kentucky, 1815: "Harrell, Jas., 1 Apr. 1815, [mar.] Dosha McIninch[sic], |
Sur. [Surety] Chas. Carter"; [believe this is Laodieca (Rawson) McAninch, widow of |
William (William died 1813)]; Pulaski County Marriage Records, 1851-1863, Book II, |
pg. 128, pub. May 1974, Pulaski County Hist. Society, Somerset KY; from the Preface: |
"Research of original bonds, 1797-1850, and rechecking of Court Records ... |
resulted in the addition of bonds not in Court Records and additional information and |
corrections for Book I." [I., 1797-1850] |
Kentucky 1840 Census: McAninch, Jesse, Pulaski Co. KY 313, Pulaski City |
[believe this Jesse McAninch is son of William and Laodieca, Wm.d.1813] |
Missouri: Samuel McAninch – |
"Samuel McAninch, who for forty-six years has been a resident of Cass County . . . |
