Notes


NOTES from Barbara Bartels: Isaac and Sarah Ann Lemaster were married about 1783. In 1787 they were counted in census in Ohio county, which is now in the West Virginia panhandle on the Ohio River, with his father Richard, on the Cumberland Road. This must have marked their migration to Kentucky. This road runs from Baltimore, Maryland to Pittsburgh, PA. From there they probably rafted down the Ohio River to Eastern Kentucky. County formation kept occurring, placing the area where the Lemaster family lived in Kentucky under the jurisdiction of several counties, although they lived in the same place. This is why the births of the children are listed as occurring in different counties. In 1811, the same area was formed into Bath county. In 1820 there are two Isaac Lamasters, one in Bath Co. Ky, which almost matches the family of our Isaac, except for one extra daughter b. 1810-1820. There is also an Isaac Lamaster in Shelby Co., Indiana. Maybe he was counted just before and after he moved, although the move should have taken two weeks, at least. An Isaac Lamaster received credit for service in the War of 1812, from Dearborn co., Indiana, under Capt. Justus Sartwell's company, Indiana Militia, Apr.-Jun. 1813, but he paid a substitute John Walden. I'm not sure if this our Isaac, who was fifty years old at the time, but the author of Lamasters, 1810-1840 thinks it is. His brother Richard was in the same company. Daughter Phoebe was the first to be married in 1813, and son Richard married two years later, in 1815. Sons Michael and Benjamin were married in 1818. It is not known when Cassandra married Joseph Boon, but the. probability is in Kentucky, guessing by herage. The impending move to Indiana must have spurred the marriages of Elizabeth and Patsy, in 1820. By 1821, Isaac was taxed in Bartholomew CO., Indiana, parent of Shelby Co., Indiana. All of the children of this family went to Shelby Co., Indiana, as far as is known, except Elijah, who stayed in Kentucky. Daughters Micha and Sally were married in Bartholomew Co., Indiana in 1821 and 1822 respectively. At that time Shelby Co., had not been formed. This left only the baby Isaac, Jr., at home, unmarried, until 1829. Isaac, Sr., is said to have died shortly after 1830, and in the 1840 census of Shelby Co., Sarah is still living.
