The Amos Family
Submitted by Kellie Scott

This article was found by Mrs. Ann Dru Stamper of Paris, Ky. She gave it to me, because she knows I love genealogy and would find the proper place for all the genealogy she found. The following was a handwritten article written by an unknown author. I believe it to be written by Miss Blanche Lilleston in the 1940's. If I am wrong please correct me.
AMOS
The first of the Amos family in America of whom we have authentic information is William Amos born 1690 in England and came to America about 1735. He settled in that part of Maryland which later in 1773 was taken from Baltimore County and incorporated in Harford County, Maryland. He was a member of the Church of England and died in 1759. His wife was Ann ( Hannah) McComas, daughter of William died 1748 and he was son of David died 1699 and Martha McComas of Scotland. A will of William Amos mentions his wife Ann and following heirs: Thomas, William, James, Benjamin, Joshua and Mordecai.
Thomas, the eldest son is the ancestor from whom the Bourbon County branch descends. He married 12-25-1735 Elizabeth Day, daughter of Nicholas Day and Elizabeth Cox married 7-14-1709, she was a daughter of Christopher Cox.
The son of Thomas and Elizabeth Day was Nicholas Day Amos. In the will of William Amos, his son Thomas inherited a tract of land in Baltimore Co., known as Branter's Ridge and an adjacent tract known as Amoses Pursuits.
William Amos, 1717-1814, was prominent in the early history of Quaker Church in Maryland. He was educated in England for the Episcopal Ministry. Coming to America, her served as a Lieutenant in the Provincial Militia, when it was revealed to him that the Kingdom of Christ is a peaceful kingdom. He resigned his commission, joined the Society of Friends, established a church at Falston, the first Quaker Church in Harford Co. Maryland and for nearly 70 years was a honored minister.
Will Recorded March 10, 1759 in Baltimore Co. Md. Will Book 2 page 317 The heirs mentioned in this will were probably all born in England, coming to America about 1735. Thomas born 11-23-1711, married 12-25-1735 Elizabeth Day, daughter of Nicholas and Elizabeth Cox Day married 7-14-1709. The Day, Cox, and Amos families were members of the Protestant Episcopal Church.

The Benton Family
From Maryland to Kentucky, a look at how the Benton family came to be in Bourbon County
Printed by Permission of the Bourbon County Genealogical Society (2003-2010)
When Joseph Benton II was born in Prince George's County, Maryland on 15 October 1725, Kentucky was still 25 years away from it's first known visit by a white man and about 45 years away from the trailblazing pioneers snaking their way through the passes and looking to settle the area. Indeed, Joseph probably never visited the area but his son certainly did.
Joseph II and his wife, Elizabeth produced eleven children, one of which was Hezekiah Benton. Hezekiah was born in Maryland on 1 January 1768, the fifth child all male to that point, of his parents union.
Hezekiah was reportedly married in 1787, although to whom and where is still a mystery to the submitter. We do know that his family was in Kentucky at least by 16 April 1803 as that is when his son, Norwell Thomas Benton was born in Mt. Sterling in Montgomery County. Hezekiah lived out his days in Montgomery County, it seems, as he died there around 1840. Hezekiah's will was probated in May 1841.
Norwell was married to Elizabeth Bishop Taul on 19 September 1831 in Montgomery County, interestingly enough, a year after their first child, Hezekiah Jackson Benton was born. Norwell and Elizabeth also had a large family with 10 offspring being the issue of the partnership. Norval Thomas Benton was born in Winchester, Clark County on 27 April 1841. This is an interesting note as Norwell and Elizabeth seemed to have children in both Mt. Sterling and Winchester alternatively.
On 4 February 1869 Norval Benton married Margaret J. Talbott. They married in Margaret's native Bourbon County but resided in Winchester as they produced at least three children, the first and third being born in Winchester. Margaret was the great-granddaughter of Demovit Talbott who moved to Bourbon County in the mid-1790's from Fairfax County, Virginia. Norval died in Winchester on 2 November 1877 aged just 36. Norval was buried in section B of the Winchester Cemetery as a matter of fact he is buried next to his parents. Margaret was 30 years old when Norval died and she went on to marry at least twice more.
The thrid child that was born to Norval and Margaret was Norvell Thomas Benton I, born 29 January 1877 in Winchester, Clark County. He never knew his father as he had passed away before Norvell turned 1 year old.
The third son and youngest child born to Norvell I and Sarah was Samuel Clay Benton. Born on 10 September 1919 in Winchester, Samuel married a Paris resident, Mayme Taylor on 13 September 1936 at 617 High Street, Paris. It was Samuel and Mayme who set up home in Paris and chose to bring up their family in Bourbon County. Mayme had been born on 27 November 1912 in Richmond, Madison County, Kentucky.
Samuel, better known as Clay, attended Paris High School, graduating in 1930. In 1967 he was awarded the Kirkpatrick Cup at the annual Paris High Alumni Association banquet.
He worked for the Post Office as a carrier on Rural Route #3 for 30 years. In his retirement he was still active taking a position as Civil Defense Director for Bourbon County in September 1973. In October 1982 he was elected as Vice President of the Kentucky Disaster and Emergency Services Association. Clay was also President of the Paris Lions Club 1978-79.
Mayme was a graduate of Madison High School in Richmond, Kentucky and also graduated from the University of Kentucky. Her vocation was teaching and she served the Paris and Bourbon County school system for 20 years.
She also was a very active person being a member of the First Presbyterian Church in Paris, Alpha Delta Kappa Teacher's Sorority and Center Hill Homemakers Club, among others.
Clay died on 18 November 1995 in Paris and was buried three days later in Paris Cemetery. He joined his loving wife, Mayme, who died three years earlier on 7 September 1992.
Mayme and Clay had two children, both girls, born in Paris and born still living. One of these children, Mary Clay Hatton (nee Benton) is the submitter of this article.
Throughout this article you may have noticed that there are three different spelling variations of a very similar name. Submitter, Mary Hatton, has chosen to follow the spellings the way that she has found them on official documentation. However, Mary agrees that all three derivations of the name Norvel/Norval/Norwell is probably the same name.

He was always ready with his part of a task and did it well, moral, correct, and faithful, we regretted to give him up, in relations with the Guthrie Clothing Co., he was complied with demands on him. His friends are numbered by his acquaintances, all of whom will join us in wishing him well. From Lexington they went to Louisville and returned here Saturday and took up rooms with his step-father, Mr. J. C. Tyler, North Maysville Street.

WELL KNOWN CITIZEN DIES
NORVAL T. BENTON, POPULAR MERCHANT PASSES AWAY SUDDENLY
When the message went out over our city Saturday morning in the dawning of a glorious day spring day, that an honored and beloved citizen, Norval T. Benton, had passed away there was sadness. In the prime of a life which meant a blessing to his home, his friends, his church, he was suddenly stricken, and not with standing the heroic efforts of his attending physicians and loved ones, the soul which had struggled to be free all during the long night of anxious solicitude, winged its flight to the great beyond and to its eternal reward.

The dates of births and deaths are taken from the family Bible of Benjamin Boardman, who was the third generation to live in America, The given name of the emigrant from England is unknown to writer. but traditional statements are agreed that he came from England and lived first in NJ and later MD. This pioneer had a son whose name was Joseph Boardman, born 1746;died 1818, but the place of his birth is stated to have been in MD as shown by letter from Mr. H Boardman of Indiana to Abner Boardman, Jr. dated April 3, 1892. This letter also states that Joseph Boardman moved to NJ when he married Elizabeth Parker born 1844. It is also stated that Joseph Boardman lived for a short time in Delaware and this statement is corroborated by his grandson, Abner Boardman and Harry H. Boardman of Odon in Graves Co, Indiana, that Joseph Boardman passed through town in which his father lived in MD on his journey to KY
The old deed records of Bourbon County Book? page 155 show that on Feb 23, 1796 Henry Wilson and Francis Wilson sold to Joseph Boardman for the consideration of 45 pounds 60 acres of land on the waters of Hinkston Creek in Bo. Co. KY This 60 acres of land is now occupied by Finley Burris, a descendant.
The same letter from Harry H. Boardman states that Joseph Boardman had 5 brothers, who left many children.
So far as known to me, Joseph Boardman had only one son Benjamin Boardman probably born in NJ 1774; died Sept 8, 1840. He married Keziah ( Katie) Rice born 1775; died Nov 21, 1847.
In a history of the Rice family, Benjamin Boardman had four sons: Wm Boardman born Nov 22, 1797 and died MAy 16, 1887; James born Dec 6, 1796; Eli born, died at Grapevine TX; Abner born April 16, 1801 and died Aug 29, 1875 and married Mary or Polly Crose born Jan 3, 1806 died Jan 31, 1876.
This brings us to the passing of 4 generation of the Boardman family to America, three of which died in KY-but where?
On the 10th Day of Dec 1811 a Mr. David A Graves gave to Benjamin Boardman a bond for tht title to 100 acres of land on the north bank of Somerset Creek in Nicholas County KY; six miles south of Carlise to which Benjamin moved, taking family. To this home, Benjamin later brought his aged mother and father, Joseph and Elizabeth and here in this same house lived and died all of the three generations mentioned above, and all are buried in the same graveyard near the original farm house, which is still standing.
