| Notes for Joseph Slusher Jr. |
Stone in Jennings Cem., Poplar Grove, Rowan Co., Ky, says "Joe Slusher 11 Mar 1861 - 18 May 1933". The birthdate is off by a year, as it does not fit with the census records (in particular, he appears in the 1860 census as 7 months old.)
He does not appear in the Kentucky Death index (checked Joseph, Joe, and J H.) |
| Census |
Listed in the 1880 census of Rowan Co., Ky, with his brother-in-law Henry Skaggs and sister Samantha, as age 21.
1885 tax lists of Rowan Co. lists on p. 39:
Slusher, Joseph, no acres, 1 male over 21, no children 6-20. (People in other categories are not enumerated.)
There is a Joseph Slusher listed as living next to Riley Hall in the 1890 tax rolls of Hogtown Precinct, Rowan Co., KY. It is not likely to be Joseph Slusher Sr, because he and Nancy were living with their daughter Samantha in 1880, and Nancy was still there in 1900, widowed.
1900 census of Rowan Co., KY, Hoggstown, lists family #283:
Joseph Slusher, 3-1860, age 40, farmer, KY VA VA; Sarah, 6-1864, age 35, KY KY KY, married 5 yrs, m/o 7 children, 6 living; Pete, 5-1883, age 16; Samantha, 3-1884, age 15; John, 12-1885, age 14; Sarah E., 8-1887, age 12; David, 1-1888, age 12; Willie, 7-1889, age 10; Silvis (son), 12-1892, age 7; Sammy, 12-1896, age 3; Henry M., 2-1900, age 3/12. All children b. KY.
"Silvis" should be Silas. Although these are all listed as Slushers, Pete, John, and David are Kidds, and Silas is a Blair. |
