Census Notes for Martha A. Humphries
1850 census of Fleming Co., Ky, division 2, enumerated 16 Aug, lists on p. 15 as family #94:
John P. Humphries, 43, farmer, b. Virginia; Sarah, 43, b. Kentucky; Rebecca Jane, 18; Amaset (f), 10; Martha, 8; Henry C., 6. All children born in Ky.
Notes for Harrison & Martha A. (Family)
Rowan Co., Ky, marriage records list the marriage of H. Gardner, age 43, born in Fleming Co., second marriage, to Martha A. Humphrey, age 16, on 28 Oct 1858.
This family is in my database primarily to document that there were two Harrison Gardners in Fleming Co. with a daughter named Sarah born about 1861 to 1862. In order to figure out which Sarah Gardner with a father Harrison married William Andrew Pettit, I had to trace the marriage of this Harrison’s daughter Sarah to James Newman.
