Notes for Nancy Gregory
All census records list her as born in Kentucky, with the 1850 census specifying Bath Co., Ky. For that to be the case, though, her parents would have to have been married in Virginia in 1814, moved to Bath Co., Ky by 1817 where she was born, and then moved to Tennessee for the births of John Jameson and Nathaniel, then back to Kentucky for the birth of Trinvilla (ca 1824).

That would be an uncommon migration pattern. I think it is more likely that Nancy was born in Virginia or Tennessee, and either thought of her birthplace as Kentucky due to living there as a child, or else just happened to usually be hit by a census taker who did not inquire closely as to birthplaces. (The 1850 Bath Co. census records birthplaces down to the county level, but the 1860 and 1870 censuses both have long lists of dittos down the whole page.)
Notes for Joseph H. & Nancy (Family)
Since I am only entering Joseph & Nancy to show the parents of Eliza J. Coyle (wife of my GGG Uncle James E. Hall), I am not entering their children into my database. If it turns out that more than one of their children married a relative of mine, then I will enter the whole family.
