Joyce, I assume you know that Wayne County, IN was settled by some Quakers from NC. The first group was in 1806 and consisted of 4 teen agers. The adults left them there while they went back for supplies and more people. One of the very early settlers was an ancestor of Herbert Hoover. Another was Hugh Allen who had a son named Jonathan in 1818 but as best I can tell he stayed in IN. I imagine that the IN Jonathan was the same one you listed from NC, but whether he is also the one in Estill County is more problematic. That is about all I know about these settlers.
If I can help, let me know.
