The Finnells in Business

Now What Do We Do

We have in past issues of Loose Branches and Roots listed a ELIJAH FINNELL (b.1805/06, Garrard Co, KY; d.10 Feb 1890 and buried in Armstrong Old Chapel Cemetery, Mt Airy, MO) with three different Parents.

On page 15-17 of the Combined Issue (#1-4) we list Elijah as the son of JAMES FINNELL; b.c1775, VA; d. after 1840 Chariton Co, MO; married in 1798 in Garrard Co, KY to Sabra Hubbard.

Second on page 15 of Issue #7 we listed Elijah as the son of JOHN C. FINNELL; b.1794, Madison Co, KY; d.7 Jan 1856, buried in the old Finnell Cemetery near Roanoke, MO with three small sons; m. 1820 to Mary King, she d.1860 in Macon Co, MO.

Third on page 15 Issue #10 is listed Elijah as the son of JOHN FINNELL; b.1796, KY; m. 1818 in Garrard Co, KY to Polly Albaugh.

Both the JOHN FINNELLS appear to be too young to be the Father of this Elijah as both appear to be born in the mid 1790's. Both men also appear to have married between 1818/20 several years after the estimated birth of Elijah. They appear to not be the parents of this Elijah. It does appear that all three Families appeared in Garrard County, KY and later settled in the Chariton County MO area, helping to create some more confusion.

The best possibility is that Elijah is the son of JAMES FINNELL and Sabra Hubbard. It will be important to document and compile all the evidence we can find to prove this connection. The search will go on.

My Great Grandfather had two sons that remained in Madison Co, KY after the Civil War.

My Grandfatrher and a son JASON W. FINNELL, there were other sons that left and one settled in Fayette Co, KY. The others, my father said had not been heard from after leaving Kentucky. One of the sons that left was a JOHN FINNELL and the others names I do not remember. There were also Daughters and one of these also settled in Fayette Co, KY.

I remember my father saying that his Grandmother was a Pullins but I do remember hearing him call her given name.

Hope this information will be of help.
