SCANLIN / SCANTLIN, Prudence / Elias COX -- VA > KY
Looking for parents of Prudence SCANLAN/SCANLAND/SCANTLIN, wife of Elias COX, who owned land located in the present border area of Wayne and Pulaski Cos., KY as early as 1800.Prudence was still living in Pulaski Co. as late as 1853 when she deeded 37 acres to John PENNINGTON.I have not yet found a record of her death/burial.
There is a marriage record in Botetourt Co., VA for a Prudence SCANTLIN and Elyas COX dated 15 March 1800 which is probably the couple I am researching, but not yet proven.
Another clue to the SCANLAN parentage is a deed record in Pulaski Co. KY dated 1865 in which a daughter of Elias and Prudence deeds her share of Elias's estate to R. P. SCANLAND.
Thanks for the help.
