Notes for SAMUEL CARLISLE:

Shirley Brier has Samuel's death year as 1836.

 

Notes for ASENITH POTIFER TERWILLIGER:

Spelling of last name has been seen several ways.  Not sure which is correct.

Twilliger, Twilligear, Twilligher, Terwilliger.   Evidently the last is correct.

 

Marriage Notes for SAMUEL CARLISLE and ASENITH TERWILLIGER:

Settled in Campbell County, KY which is now Kenton County, KY.  some of the children were born there.  Later purchased 600 acres on the Carlisle Road, Prestonville, Carroll Co., KY in 1832.  Samuel was a farmer and sheriff of Kenton County, KY.

 

Samuel and Asenith paid $750.00 for their 600 acres purchased in Gallatin Co. now Carroll Co., kY and was purchased from Reynolds and Rebecca Stebbins.  It was part of John Stuart's 1,000 acre survey.  The land they bought started at the outskirts of Prestonville and extended up both sides of the Little Kentucky River, for about 1 1/2 miles.  During their lifetime, they sold all the land on the west side of the river.  At their deaths the rest was divided among their children.  Some of their descendants still own and live on part of the original tract.

 

A few years before their deaths they left the farm and moved into Carrollton, KY.  Some of thier children are buried in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery in Carrollton and others are buried in the Carlisle Cemetery, located on the Carlisle Road, which runs through the old home place.

JOY AND SADNESS

  Corn Creek church and the community here had a mingling of joyful and sad experience within the past two weeks.  Saturday, 16th inst., Bro. W. C. Pierce of Locust church was with us and preached the sermon at the ordination of brethren James Crawford, Wm. Stockdale and John Weatherbee.

  On the following Thursday the pastor united in marriage Mr. Arthur Carlisle, a promising young Baptist farmer, and Miss Nannie Rand, daughter of Deacon Wm. Rand, one of our brightest and best young members.  The ceremony took place at Union Grove church, of which the groom is a member, in the presence of a large audience, whose interest and best wishes go with the young couple in their new relation.

  On Sunday, 24th inst., came the death of Bro. Ed. F. Rand, the oldest son of Deacon Rand.  Bro. Rand was a graduate of the National Normal School at Lebanon, Ohio, and had been teaching for several years; but yielding to what he and the church thought to be a call to the ministry, he allowed the church to license him to preach about six months ago, and had planned to take a course in the Seminary before a great while.

  He was held in high esteem by his church and the adjoining communities; was ever present to do his part in any worthy enterprise of each or any office to which he was elected.

  After a sermon by the pastor from John 14:28 we laid him away to rest in the old churchyard until the resurrection morn.  "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints."
