My memory has been jogged a bit and I had a great Aunt El and also great Aunt Lil who are obviously the Lillie M. Waller and Ella Waller who are in the family tree along with William Waller who was their brother and my grandfather. I thought El was married to the Clements but it was Lil. I never knew Aunt Lil but my Mom said she was the sweetest lady in the world and I know El was a very kind, loving lady. We are actually going to get this all together yet!!!! Love, Cecelia

Joseph married Lydia Ann "Lettie" Gough on 15 Apr 1861 in Union County, Kentucky.

Notes:

Mike: This is what I have on George Silas Gough. The other information I have on Him is in the Gough History.

George Silas Gough was born in Washington County, Ky. in 1814 to an Isidore Gough and Ann Russell.

George Silas and Letitia Belle Davis had the following Children. Lydia Ann, Simon Russell, Henry Clay, Henry, George Benjamin, Elizabeth Irene, Isadore, Donnie Adair, Ann Johnson, Mary Ida, Bruno Douglas, Francis R. and Kate Victoria.

Bruno Douglas Gough (My Grandfather) was born in Union County on Oct 6, 1861, and died April 29, 1944, in Union County, Ky. He was married to Emma Gertrude Thompson, daughter of John Thompson, and Susan Jane Thompson,(Thompson was her maiden name). They were married on November 18,
1884, in St. Agnes Church, Uniontown, Ky. They had the following children: Charles Richard, John Martin, and Susie Mae. Emma died around 1900 . Bruno then married Annie Girten, daughter of Richard Girten and Elizabeth Mills. They had four Sons: Ross, Manuel, Bill, and Leo.

John Martin Gough was my father. He was married to Nettie A. Crawley.

Cousin Joe:

George married Letitia Bell Davis. Letitia was born in 1823 in Kentucky; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

I've been in touch with Joseph T., who says he has retired from the genealogy field but is still interested in my results, and with Sandy Massie, who is very willing to help and also wants to see my paper chart. I will be glad to send you a copy too, if you will provide a land postal address.

My Below great-grandmother claimed that Ann's father fought at the Battle of Pt Pleasant and in the War of Independence and in skirmishes with Indians in Ohio afterwards. He could be one of the recognized "John Russells" and it would only be necessary to discover the connection.

Gough to his sister Elizabeth Jane regarding the recent death of their mother (i.e., Ann(e) Russell Gough). It was written from POW camp in Indianapolis. So I am going to say that her date of death must be ca. 1865. So here is my first contribution to genealogical science. I assume that the old Ann Russell info came from the census.

Robert Russell and the oldest female in his household were 45+ (bef 1765) but had no younger females in the household; William and his female, probably his wife were both in the 16/26 category (1784-1794) and Thomas had several children including the female 16/26 and he has his oldest female were both in the 45+ category. So based on this small finding, Thomas Russell would be the father of Anne Russell, at least until something more better comes along.

John, I did find a transcript of Isadore and Anne's marriage license. They were married in Washington County, KY. I went though my Washington County, Documents and found the following:

They were married in Washington County, KY. I believe somewhere I saw a listing of Marion County. Marion was probably not formed until after Isadore and Ann left for Union County.

> The County is bordered by Washington County (north), Boyle County (northeast), Casey County (southeast), Taylor County (south), LaRue County (southwest), Nelson County (northwest). Cities, Towns and Communities include Bradfordsville, Lebanon, Loretto, Raywick, Nerinx. Marion was formed from Washington County on January 25, 1834, and was named in honor of Gen. Francis Marion, the "Swamp Fox" of the Revolutionary War who won fame for his military tactics against the British forces in the southern theater of operations. The county seat of Marion County is LEBANON.
