EARLY OHIO COUNTY MARRIAGES - Part II

OHIO COUNTY KENTUCKY MARRIAGE RECORDS

Aug 1799 – Dec 1840

Note:  This data appears to be double indexed, both with Groom first and Bride first.  I have not checked to see if that is consistent throughout. You will see some entries twice with slight variations; this is because all of this data is found in old journals & written in longhand (cursive) and is very difficult to read, so the transcriber made two entries because it could be interperted in either form.  I think the best way to search this data is to search using your various surnames, using the search feature of your browser or copy the data and create a Word document and use that search feature.

HENRY D. McHENRY

HON. HENRY D. McHENRY, banker and lawyer, was born February 7, 1826, at

Hartford, Ohio Co., Ky. His father, the Hon. John Hardin McHenry, was born October 13, 1797, in Washington County, Ky., and died at his residence in Owensboro, November 1, 1871. His father was the Rev. Barnabus McHenry, who emigrated from Virginia, and was one of the pioneer preachers of the Methodist denomination in the West; and his mother was the daughter of Col. John Hardin, who was killed while on a mission to the Indians in the Northwest Territory. He received a good education, chiefly under the instruction of his father; studied law under his uncle, the distinguished Martin D. Hardin, at Frankfort; obtained license in 1819, and began his profession at Lietchfield in Grayson County. In 1821, Gov. Adair appointed him commonwealth attorney, and Col. Alnay McLean judge of the new Judicial District, consisting of the counties of Daviess, Henderson, Breckinridge, Ohio, and Muhlenburgh. He at once removed to Hartford, and entered upon the duties of his office, resigning in 1839; in the following year was elected to the legislature; in 1845 was elected to congress from the Second Congressional District of Kentucky, as a Whig; in 1849 was elected delegate from Ohio and Hancock Counties to the convention which framed the present constitution of Kentucky, and, in 1853, after a residence of thirty-two years in Hartford, removed to Owensboro, where he continued to reside until his death. He had the unbounded confidence of his fellow citizens, and was regarded as one of the most able and successful lawyers, and best men of the day in the State; and probably traveled over a larger circuit, and did a more laborious practice than any of his contemporaries. He was universally beloved. Mr. McHenry was married to Hannah Davis, and left seven children: Hon. Henry D.; Col. John H. (of Owensboro); William H. and W. E. of St. Louis; L. S. McHenry of Louisville; and Mrs. Dr. Hale and Mrs. Robert Craig, of Daviess County. The eldest son, Hon. Henry D. McHenry, the subject of this sketch, received every advantage in his early education, one of his teachers being the late Frank Griffin, a distinguished scholar in his time, and finished his literary training at Transylvania University, at Lexington. He chose the law for his profession; studied with his father; graduated in the law department of Transylvania University; in 1845, and was admitted to the practice in his native town. He soon took a prominent position in his profession, and in 1851 was elected to the lower house of the legislature; in 1861 he was elected to the State senate, serving until 1865, when he was again sent to the lower house, and was chairman of the judiciary committee in both branches of the legislature. In 1867 he was Democratic candidate in the legislature for United States senator, but was defeated, by two votes, by Hon. Garrett Davis, of Bourbon County. In 1870 he was elected to represent his district in the Forty Second Congress, served on the Pacific Railroad committee, and took a strong part in the discussion before the house; in 1872 strongly advocated the establishment of a natiotial educational fund, favoring the application of the proceeds of sales of public lands to the education of the people, and distinguished himself in his address on the famous civil rights question, taking the position that the bill was bad in its policy, untenable in its constitutional construction, and a clear infringement on the rights of States to local self government. In 1872 he was delegate from the State at large to the Baltimore Democratic Convention, and was elected member of the Democrat National Committee, and conducted the presidential confabs with such ability in Kentucky, as to bring about his reappointment on the national committee for the next four years at the convention in St. Louis in 1876, and was re-elected to the same position by the national conventions of 1880 and 1884, which position he still holds, and is now perhaps the oldest member of that committee. After the presidential election, of 1876, he was one of the Democrats appointed to proceed to New Orleans for the purpose of investigating the election returns in that State. He was also appointed to superintend the counting of the votes of Kentucky. He has gained wide-spread reputation as a land lawyer, and has taken a prominent position for his great ability in general practice and is one of the most able, active and influential lawyers of his State. He is a pungent and forcible speaker, has an easy, ready command of language, is a man of fine financial and executive ability, and has a great diversity of knowledge, which he brings to his service in every emergency. He is largely interested in the coal interests on the Chesapeake, Ohio & Southwestern Railroad, holding the position of president of the McHenry & Rockport Coal Companies, and is an active worker in every enterprise looking to the public welfare, contributing in every way to the best interests of the community, in which he is one of the most influential and widely known members. Among his many diversified business interests is that of banking — he holding the position of president of the bank of Hartford. In person he is of admirable appearance, being fully six feet in height and agreeable and attractive in manners. Mr. McHenry was married, January 27, 1856, to Miss Jennie (Martha Jane) Taylor, daughter of Rev. James Taylor, of Hardinsburg, Ky., a lady of marked talents and rare accomplishments. She has written some exquisite poetry, and a fine collection of her poems, published in book form, has been widely circulated over the country. They have five children living: Henry, now practicing law; Godfrey T., in the bank; John J., civil engineer, in employ of government; Isahelle; and Lemuel. Wife a member of Methodist Church.

WILLIAM LYONS

WILLIAM LYONS was born March 3, 1847, in Hancock County, Ky., and is a son of Elias and Catherine (Newton) Lyons. The father was also born in Hancock County. He (the father) moved several times, and was in Missouri at the breaking out of the war, and served three years in the Confederate service; was taken prisoner at Monnego Springs, Mo., and confined in McDowels' prisons; while in the latter he died in 1863. William Lyon accompanied his father in all his moves, prior to and after his location in Missouri, but returned to Kentucky with his two uncles, who had gone after him. In 1867 he returned to Kansas and remained until 1870. November 9, 1871, he married Eda Willis, a sister of F. G. Willis, whose sketch is also given. They are the parents of five children: Jimmie, Mamie, Ollie, Alma, and an infant. After marriage Mr. Lyons engaged in farming, milling and mercantile business. He is the owner of over 400 acres of land in good order, and principally made and improved by himself. He is a Democrat and a member of the Baptist Church. His wife is a Presbyterian.

DAM AT HARTFORD

CONSTRUCTION OF DAM AT HARTFORD – 1890 to 1898

Source: Report of Chief of Engineers, U. S. Army, 1899

           ------------------------------<>--------------------------

This was the first river lock constructed of monolithic concrete in the United States. Plans for the Rough River lock called for the use of common stone masonry in construction, but bids for furnishing cut-stone were excessive because of limited access to the project site, and Hall (Assistant Engineer William M. Hall) recommended the substitution of concrete of "imported Portland cement." The Chief of Engineers approved in 1895, and construction of the concrete lock, with chamber dimensions of 27 feet width, 123 feet length, and 9 feet lift, was completed in 1896, at a cost of about $85,000.  In 1899, three steamboats and a number of small vessels were plying the Rough River to Hartford; they transported 10,883 tons of freight in that year. But 1899 was just about the peak for traffic on the Rough River. The project, except for its precedent-setting construction method, was a signal failure.

ADAM LITER

CAPT. ADAM LITER, Ohio County, was born in Bourbon County, Ky., July 14, 1822, and is the sixth of a family of seven children born to Henry and Mary (Ament) Liter, the former of Pennsylvania and the latter a native of Kentucky, and both of German descent. At a very early age, Henry Liter removed with his parents to Bourbon County, Ky., the whole country being at that time one vast, dense cane-brake. The family were among the earliest settlers of the county, and for protection against the Indians were obliged, with other families, to live in the fort at Bryant's Station some three years. Here his father, the grandfather of our subject, bought wild land some four miles from Bryant's Station, where he subsequently improved a farm, upon which he resided until his death, and reared a large family of children. Here Henry Liter received his education, and after attaining his majority he bought wild land near the old homestead, which he was obliged to pay for twice, in consequence of a defective title, as did also many of his neighbors; he afterward improved a farm upon which he resided until his death, which occurred in 1862 at the age of some eighty or ninety years. He was twice married, rearing a family of twelve children, eleven of whom attained manhood and womanhood. He was a life long member of the Presbyterian Church, in which he officiated as deacon for many years. Capt. Adam Liter received only a very limited education in youth, but has by his own effort since acquired a fair business education. He was employed on his father's farm until he was seventeen years of age, when he commenced to learn the stone-cutter's trade, but after a few months abandoned it and returned home. Soon after this he went to learn the confectioner's trade, serving an apprenticeship of three years, after which he followed the trade on his own account, at Madison, Ind., for five years, when he was compelled to abandon it on account of failing health, caused by inhaling the fumes of burning charcoal. He was then engaged in flat-boating for three years, running hoop-poles and staves down the rivers to New Orleans. This proving unprofitable, and becoming encumbered, he engaged in steam-boating on the Green River, at which he was eminently successful until the breaking out of the late civil war. He with his two boats was then pressed into the Government service. In 1862 he sold these boats, and in the following year, 1863, built two new ones, both of which were soon pressed into the Government service and transformed into war vessels in the tin-clad fleet. For these, however, he was handsomely remunerated. In 1864 he built another boat, which he sold soon after the war. The principal part of his steam- boating was on the Green River, from Bowling Green, Ky., to Evansville, Ind. He was, however, to some extent engaged in boating on the Wabash, Ohio, and Mississippi Rivers. Before and during the war, bought four farms on the Green River, in Ohio County, near South Carrollton, aggregating about 1,000 acres. He was also the owner of some eight slaves. Soon after the close of the war he leased a coal mine near Spottsville, on the Green River, which he operated for about two years. In 1871 he settled on his farm near South Carrollton, upon which he now resides and where he has since been extensively engaged in farming and stock raising. He is one of the most successful farmers in the county, taking and reading several agricultural journals, and keeping fully abreast with all modern improvements. He was married July 15, 1846 to Sarah C. Foster, a native of Cincinnati, Ohio; three children were born to them, two of whom — sons — are now living. Capt. Liter and wife are members of the United Baptist Church. He is a member of the I. O. O. F., having three times passed all the chairs and is now a member of the Grand Lodge of the State of Indiana. He took bis degrees in Morning Star Lodge No. 7, of Madison, Ind.; afterward helped to organize Madison Lodge No. 11, of same place, and still later helped to organize Crescent City Lodge No. 22, of Evansville, Ind., of which he is still a member. He is a Democrat.

Note: Capt. Adam Liter died 13 May 1908 in Ohio County and is buried in Pine Grove Cemetery, South Carrollton, Muhlenberg County.  In the 1880 census he is shown living in Centertown, Ohio County, and in the 1900 census he is shown living with his son, Charles, in Cromwell, Ohio County.
