Concerning the descendants of John Miles Duvall:A tradition that has been often repeated is that John Miles Duvall and his wife, Anne Rosenna Philomena (Anarpy) Tarleton, started to Kentucky from Maryland with a group of settlers.John Miles was reported to have drowned in the Potomac, and Anarpy continued on to Nelson County, KY, with her seven children.It appears that one of the older chiildren was Mary (Polly) who married John Sebastian Shehan in Nelson County, shortly after their arrival about 1790.I have sought for years to find primaryproof that Polly Duvall was one of these children...reported to be five sons and two daughters.Circumstantial evidence seems to be the only proof offered for this relationship, but if the family tradition is correct, would place her as a member of this family.Does anyone have any suggestions or verification of this information?
