Betty,
I have a Jeanette RISON, b. c1790 who married Matthew GUY in 1818 (Virginia).This GUY family moved to Clark County KY and are listed in 1820 - 1860 census (District 1 & 2).
Matthew GUY was born in Prince William, VA.Census records list Jeanette's birthplace as VA, but the 1860 census list her as "Harriet" GUY born MD?I have been unable to locate a burial site for Matthew or Jeanette, but know they are buried in Clark County.
Children of Matthew & Jeanette (Rison) GUY are:
John GUY, b. c1818 (m. Elizabeth MUIR)
Charles GUY, b. c1820 (m. Elynn ??)
Martin GUY, b. c1822
Elizabeth "Betsy" GUY, b. 1825 (m. Woodford PIGG)
Sally A. GUY, b. 1828
William Mack GUY, b. 1829 (m. Cinderilla TATE)
Mary GUY, b. 1831 (m. Daniel McKILLIP)
Alfred GUY, b. 1833 (m. Arzella ??)
I have been attempting to research other RISON/RISEN in Clark/Estill Counties to see if there was a connection.
Do any of these individuals sound familiar?Thanks in advance!
