Research notes from Toby Williams

Presley Doggett moved to Kentucky. He is in the 1810 census for Shelby County, Kentucky as well as the 1820 census for Shelby County (although he is charmingly called "Doghead" in 1820).
His children William, Absolem S, Nancy, Juliet, Judith, and Sarah all got married in Shelby County. It is claimed he died March 27, 1839 in Shelby County.

My previous note on Presley Doggett is incorrect. There is in fact a Presley Doggett in Shelby County, Kentucky in the censuses (censi?) for both 1810 and 1820 but it is not this one - unless his birthdate on this website is wrong. The Presley Doggett in Shelby County was born between 1766 and 1775.¹

Obituary of John Brown - Culpeper, VA. 31 Dec 18343. Oreon Bruce copied this following from the original newspaper clipping.
"Mr. John Brown of this county, another Revolutionary soldier, has gone to the realities of another world. The last day of December 1834, witness by the close of earthly career, after having lived to the age of 76. He discharged the various relations of life with such fidelity as to acquire for him the respect and friendship of all those who know him. Though he lived and opposes of the Christian religion yet at that period which, "Tries men's souls." With that honesty so characteristic of the patriots of 76, he informed the writer of the brief notice, that he never was satisfied with his course of life, but he often had convictions on account of sin. He seemed to occupy his last few weeks almost entirely in Prayer and making ready for that awful change which he felt was now at hand. He was heard to regret with deep the manner in which he had spent his past life. He left a large circle of friends and connections to lament his loss, but they have some comfortable assurance that he entered upon the unmortal with the bright prospect of eternal glory."¹
