It is assumed that Justin is
related to Issac & Dennis
McCarty in Fayette Co. Ky.
due to his marrying Mary
Graham in Fayette Co. Ky.,
also possibly related to
Thomas McCarty of Jefferson
Co. Ky. It is also assumed
that Justin is related to
David, Samuel and John
McCarty of Bourbon Co. Ky.
[all 3 on Kentucky Tax
Payers list, 1789-1792].
The reason for the probable
relationships to the above
named McCarty's is Justin's
first appearing in Kentucky
in Fayette Co., where he
marries Mary Graham.
Possibly Issac and or Dennis
being brothers or uncles to
Justin for him to have been
there after apperaring from
nowhere. Justin is "missing"
from 1781 till he shows up
in Fayette Co. in 1792. The
next year, he and Mary are
in Washington Co. The other
reason for a possible
relationship to the above
named, Thomas, Samuel, John
and William noted below, is
that Justin names his
children these same names.
These names continue being
used in Justin's McCarty
line up to present day.
It is highly probable that
Justin is related to William
McCarty of Barron Co. Ky.
who married Polly Hannah
Forbis and they had a
daughter, Nancy who ends up
in Justin's household at a
young age. After Justin's
death, his son Thomas
Samuel, is Bondsman for
Nancy's marriage to Harrison
Hays marriage date Dec. 12,
1831, Marion Co. Ky.
