KY to IL angel, angells
I have located an Elias Angell that was an Orphan in the year 1808. According to Gardian Orders in the the County of Harrison in Kentucky. Elias Angell's gardian was an Ann Angell.
I found it in book Called: "Kentucky Records and Early Wills and Marriages - (Copied from Court House Records by Regents, and Historians and the State Historian) Old Bible Records and Tombstone Inscriptions" Compiled by Mrs. William Breckenridge Ardery; Publisher Baltimore, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc. 1986
Page 150, Dec. 1809 --- Ann Angel appointed gdn. to Nancy and Malinda Angel, Inft. orphanes of Jno. Angel and Elias Angel, another Orphan of same chose Ann Angel gdn. Surety: Benj. Hickman:
Here is a possible theory:
The impression this last information give me is that Elias Angel is not a brother to these too (Nancy & Malinda), but more likely a cousin. Which makes make think that one of John's brothers died earlier, and Elias had come to live with this Ann Angel first, and then after the death of John, then came Malinda and Nancy to live with Ann Angel. SO, who is this ANN ANGELL???. . .Is she maybe the grandma to all three children....Nancy, Malinda and Elias?
If she is Grandma, then John and other brother would be her sons.....
So, then who is Grandpa, and when did he die leaving Grandma alone?
This all all just a possible theory. I'm sure there are many other ways to look at it. I just need more
John Angel is also listed on page 292 - Harrison County Inventories: Book A
It says: Angell, John, October, 1808
That's all the book gives.
Anyway, Elias Angell was born abt. 1795, and I am assuming that he was married 3 times.......For marriage information.....
1st Marriage: Elias Angell to Martha Phillips on January 9, 1819 in Harrison County, KY
2nd Marriage: Elias Angell to Agnes Wyatt on June 18, 1824
in Pendleton Co., KY
3rd Marriage: Elias Angell to Polly Ann Stephens Crail on August 21, 1833.
I Imagine there were children for each marriage, but only know the children of the 3rd Marriage.
Some of the children of Elias and Polly Ann:
Julia Ann Angell Born: April 5, 1836 in Pendleton County, KY
William Angell Born abt.: 1837
Cathrine Angell Born abt.: 1839
Maria Angell Born abt.: 1841
Now, Polly Ann Stephens, had been married before to Daniel Crail.....The also had several children together before Daniel's Death:
1. Samuel Crail
2. Rachel Crail
3. Rebecca Crail
4. John Louis Crail
5. Unknown Crail
6. Henry W. Crail
7. Frances B. Crail
The reason I bring up Polly's Children is that Elias Angell her 2nd husband give his written consent for the marriage of her daughter Rebcca Crail to a John Martin on June 11, 1840 in Kenton County, KY.
This marriage is listed in the book: "Mariages of Campbell, Boone and Kenton Counties, Kentucky, 1795-1850 Letters L-R" page 18
The book says this:
Martin, John & Rebecca Crail, 11 June 1840, m by EG, b Elias Angell, Kenton Co., KY
Now Elias Angell is also listed in the 1840 Census for Kenton County, KY:
Elias Angel was with family in Kenton, KY during the 1840 Census for Kenton County, KY. Page No. 288; 7 down from the top.
Elias and Polly are then again Mentioned in the 1850 Census for Vermillion County, IL, along with the children listed above for Elias and Polly Angell:
Elias Angill was in Vermillion Co, IL District 21 on December 9, 1850. Dwelling no. : 463; page no. 286; Line no. 12
After the 1850 Census Elias and his wife Polly seem to dissappear out of sight. I have traced one of there daughters,I my Great Great Grandmother "Julia Ann Angell" She married my Great Great Grandfather William Clements, Other spellings....Clemmons, Clemens etc.
Both William Clements and Julia Ann Angell were married in Champaigin County, IL

2. Copy of the Orginal Marriage Certificate:

But some of there Children were born in Vermillion County, IL
Here is a list of William Clements and Julia Ann Angell's Children:
1. Henry W. Clements Born: December 25, 1853 in Vermillion County, IL
2. William Harvey Clements Born: December 23, 1855 Vermillion County, near Danville
3. Cordilia Florence Clements Born abt. Abt. 1858 prob. in Schuyller County, IL
4. John James Clements Born: December 11, 1861 In Schuyler Co. IL
5. *George Riley Clements Born: April 20, 1866 in Schuyler County, IL
Both William and Julia died in Schuyler County, IL
There were also other Angells, in Schuyler County, but I am unsure if there is any relationship to Julia Angell, and her father Elias Angell.
If anyone has some ideas on this family I would love to chatt.
Thanks for the help. Hopefully, I have helped someone else too....
