John M. McGUIRE (ca 1819 KY- ca 1895 KS)

John M. McGUIRE (ca 1819 KY- ca 1895 KS)

This John McGUIRE would likely be a grandson of Revolutionary War Patriot, John McGUIRE (1756 IR –1837 KY) and is also likely the son of John McGUIRE (ca 1784 VA(ky)- ca 1840 IN) and Lucy HENSLEY (ca 1782 VA(ky)- ca 1854 IN).

He married Esther EVANS (1815 –1839) in Owen County, IN. Their daughter Alecia (1838- ca 1870 IA) married James OLDFIELD in KS before 1860.

John M. next married Margaret SKIDMORE (1823-) in 1842 still in Owen Co., IN. They had children Paris (1843-), Orinda (1845-), Lucy Ann (1846-), Harriet (1853-) and Wallace G. (1854-). This family is in Walnut Creek, Brown Co., KS by the 1860 Census.

Before the 1870 census, still in Walnut Creek, Brown Co., KS, John has married Katherine (maiden name unknown) STEVENS. There are STEVENS children in the family group. John and Katherine have children:
Martha E (1868-), William (1869-), Maggie (1873-) and Charles (1876-)

John is last recorded in the 1895 Kansas census. Katherine and several married children are recorded in the Brown Co., KS area for many years.

This is not my direct line. My 3G-Grandfather, Alfred McGUIRE (1808 KY-1870 IN) would be a brother to John M. if my assumptions are correct and I believe them to be so as guided by a DNA test of a male McGUIRE cousin showing direct descent from John (1756-1837). I am investigating this line in hopes of locating evidence that would conclusively establish the parental ties between John and Lucy HENSLEY McGUIRE to John M., Albert and other McGUIREs found in the Brown, Owen and Monroe Co., IN area from the early 1820’s

As there appear to be very few online data sources for this area of Kansas for this era, I really would appreciate any individual who might help me add to my knowledge of this family.

Thank you,

Terry L. Linthicum
