Isacie Quesenberry |

| Notes for Samuel McKee Hall |
| I can't find this Sam Hall in the Kentucky death records; he may have died in Indiana. |
| Census |
1910 census of Rowan Co., KY, Cristy Creek prec., dated 17 May, lists on page 20B, family #352:
Hall, Samuel, 42, farmer, KY KY IN; (w) Ida M., 39, KY KY KY; married 10 years, 2nd marriage for both, Ida mother of 6 children, 5 living; (s) Oscar S., 18; (step-s) Elam, Carl, 17; (step-d) Lenie, 14; (s) Hall, Howard, 7; (d) Zona, 3; (son) Clella A., 8/12. |
| Notes for Isacie Quesenberry |
| I don't know her connection to my Quesenberry's, but the unusual name of "Isacie" is probably derived from "Isaac". If this marriage is not just a clerical error, then she must have been young at the time of the marriage, since there is no match for the name in the 1880 census. Another possibility, albeit slim, is that she is the Isaac B. Quesenberry, age 11 months, listed in the 1880 census as a son of Peter Quesenberry & Julia Wade. I cannot find any later record of that Isaac. Censuses fairly often get the gender wrong on a baby or young child, if the enumerator misunderstands the given name. They didn't usually ask about gender, just name, and inferred the gender from that. |
| Notes for Samuel McKee & Isacie (Family) |
Rowan County Marriage register A, p. 11, lists marriage of Samuel M. Hall to Isacie Quesenberry on 19 July 1897.
However, I am beginning to suspect that this entry may be a clerical error. I haven't found any other record of an Isacie Quesenberry, and the marriage license for Samuel's marriage to Ida Riddle and the 1910 census both list the marriage to Ida as his second, not third. Note that Isaac Quesenberry gave bond surety for the marriage of Samuel M. Hall and Aretta Thurber on 19 July 1887 (license book 1, p. 140.) The coincidence of date and name is suspicious, especially in the context of a marriage that leaves no other evidence. So it may be that the clerk who was filling out the marriage register mistakenly recorded the 19 July 1887 bond with Isaac Quesenberry as bondsman, as a 19 July 1897 marriage, with an Isacie Quesenberry as bride.
If there really was an Isacie Quesenberry who married Samuel Hall, she must have died shortly after the marriage. |
