Is it this Margaret Mounce who married Tuckahoe Bird or is it her aunt Margaret Mounce.It most be this one because of the date of the marriage.The story goes that Mgt. was a very young and pretty maiden....from the date of the marriage to T.B., the aunt Mgt. couldn't have been very young.
I descend from Rachel Wade & John Mounce's dau, Mary Ann.Mary Ann md. Benjamin Denney s/o Charles Sr. and Anna Larwood (Learwood in older records).They moved along with his bro, Chas. Jr, to what is now Webster Co, MO in 1836.
I've read it both ways....our Mounces were from MD and they were from NC.Had they lived in each place before going to KY that you know of?
Also, Andy Mounce's father, Henry....was he the brother of our John Jr (h/o Rachel Wade) or was he John Jr's uncle?I'm thinking he was an older brother of our John Jr.
Mary Ann wasn't mentioned in John's will, probably because she was far away; however, his being her father was well-known and talked about in MO.She was also named in the Church records where the Mounces attended church in Wayne Co, KY.Without my paperword to refer to, it seems that John might have been mentioned in a marriage consent paper as well.
It's been said that Margaret and Tuckahoe Bird had a son and a daughter.Does anyone know for sure what became of them?
