In the Lincoln County Court Records, Dec. 10, 1804 [original, pg. 225], |
"John McInnich [sic] relinquishes his claim to 200 acres of vacant land for which |
he had claimed a certificate." Indeed, in the 1805 Lincoln County Tax Book, John is |
shown with no land, 1 White Male over 21, and 2 horses. |
|
The Casey County Tax Records start in 1808, and John is listed in 1808 and 1809, |
on 223 acres of land first entered by Frederick Potts. John does not appear in the |
Casey County records again, and the land entered by Frederick Potts does not appear |
again in connection with "McAninch". |
|
By 1810, John and Patsy had started a family, and the Census found them living |
in Casey County, Kentucky. There were 6 people in the John McAninch household, |
probable composition of this family (John, Patsy, 2 sons, and 2 daughters): |
|
[1810] "McIninch [sic], John 2 0 1 0 0 - 2 0 1 0 0 - 0 0" [6 people] |
[1810] 2 males, under 10 [b.1800-1810] |
John's oldest son (name unknown), age 6-8 (ref. 1820, age 16-18, b.1802-1804), |
and John's second son, William, age 5-10 (b.1805-1810, per later census records) |
[1810] 0 males, 10-16 [b.1794-1800] |
[1810] 1 male, 16-26 [b.1784-1794] |
John himself, head-of-household, although John age 30-31 in 1810 (b.1779-1780) |
[assumption: adults John and Patsy both marked in the wrong columns (‘off by 1’)] |
[1810] 0 males, 26-45 [b.1765-1784] (this is where John should have been counted) |
[1810] 0 males, 45 & over [b.bef.1765] |
[sub-total (2,1) 3 males] |
[1810] 2 females, under 10 [b.1800-1810] |
John's oldest daughter (name unknown), age 0-10 here, and |
John's second daughter (name unknown) age ~0 (ref. 0-10 in 1820, b.1810-1820) |
[so, conclusion, John's second daughter (name unknown) was b.1810, before the |
1810 census, the only way that she can be both 0-10 in 1810 and 10-16 in 1820] |
[1810] 0 females, 10-16 [b.1794-1800] |
[1810] 1 female, 16-26 [b.1784-1794] |
John's wife Patsy (Cooper) McAninch, although Patsy age ~34 (b.ca.1776) |
[assumption: adults John and Patsy both marked in the wrong columns (‘off by 1’)] |
[1810] no females 26-45 [b.1765-1784] (where Patsy should have been counted) |
[1810] 0 females, 45 & over [b.bef.1765] |
[sub-total (2,1) 3 females] |
[last 2 entries: 0 other people, 0 slaves] |
