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.

> Your Gough genealogy enabled me to identify AT ONCE a small pencil letter preserved by my Below great-grandmother. It's a letter of condolence by Calistus H. 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.

I'm wondering whether you have found the graves of the sons of Gough brothers who went to Union County, and whether a headstone or Isadore Gough, if it has not crumbled into the earth, might provide information of Ann Russell.

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.
