Seeking parents of Jonathan WILSON, of Hardin Co. He was married to Mary CASH on 22 Nov 1822, her grandfather Rev. Warren CASH officiated. In the courthouse record (Hardin Co. marriage register book 4, line 80), it states that Jonathan's step-father was a HICKS (John C.?). Can a marriage record of John C. HICKS and a Mrs. WILSON be located? A biography in the biography project lists a Rev. George H. HICKS, son of John C. HICKS, born 22 December 1814--- is this person a relation? Jonathan remarried 29 November 1836 to his wife's sister, Sarah Harriett CASH. It is known that the Jonathan WILSON farm was located west of Elizabethtown on the Hardinsburg Road. Are the family graves still marked? In his will (will book E, pages 180-181) Jonathan deeded the land to his children: Ruth Elizabeth, Susan, John, and Claybourne Cash WILSON. He died in early April (8th?), 1849.

Seeking info on great grandparents, James Minor BACK and Ann Elizabeth (or Elizabeth Ann) PHILIPS/PHILLIPS. Thought to have lived in the Hardin/Jefferson County area. In the 1900 TX Census, Elizabeth b. KY Apr 1840. I can find no record off them in KY censuses. In 1892 Elizabeth moved to TX with her 5 children, without James, so I assume he is already dead. Three of the children made it to TX: Melissa Ann, Rose Mary, and Thomas Jefferson BACK. Thomas Jefferson BACK was my grandfather. In 1850, in Yuba Co., CA, there is a listing in the Census for a James Back and a James Minor, one right after the other. I think this was my great grandfather and his uncle. If so, then my great-great grandmother's last name was probably Minor.
