Elizabeth MADDOX m.13 Nov 1873 (don't know what line
of MADDOX she came from) *Some people connect Wilson
Maddox as descending from John Maddox from Wales who
arrived 1600's but the
evidence is fuzzy. The line before Wilson I list as
"believe to be"
for now. Wilson is believed to have been the brother
of Daniel Maddox that
settled in the Trimble County KY area. Wilson is
also believed to be the brother
of Nancy Maddox born 1756 in Charlotte Co. VA.
Daniel's line has been researched
by another researcher and can be found on the
Trimble County KY Rootsweb page.
The two Maddox lines knew each other and may have
married into each or related
families from some of the same surnames that appear
in both lines. There is
evidence that a 3rd brother or other relation, also
came into the same areas in
Kentucky at the same time Wilson did. Who
Wilson's parents were is fuzzy. One story is that
Wilson and Daniel were sons of
Robert Maddox Jr., son of Robert Sr. The other is
that they were the sons of
William Maddox, son of a William or a John Maddox.
There was also another Wilson
Maddox in the area born also in Virginia (abt. 1768)
that can be confused with
my Wilson on some documents. The same for other
Daniel Maddoxes being in
Virginia and Kentucky. The Maddoxes had the habit of
repeating given names and
can be confusing at times (I am a John, guess how
many Johns I found!). I use
the 1757 birth date for Wilson as it appears in his
military records although
some have it as 1754. Wilson gave the 1757 birth
date in his application for war
pension, not sure which is correct. Wilson served with in the
Virginia Militia first with Col. George Rogers
Clark�s Regiment. When Col.
Clarks� regiment main body was called closer to the
east, Wilson and several
other men were placed under the command of Lt.
Thomas Dillard and sent to
Boonesborough KY. Wilson and the men with him were
accomplished outdoorsman and
it was felt that their skills were better suited to
the wilderness of the Ohio
Valley.
Wilson became acquainted
with Daniel Boone while at Boonesborough and was in
several actions in the area
against the Indian tribes that aligned with the
British. Wilson�s company was
later placed under the command of Captain John
Dougherty and was in the actions
around Cincinnati, Pickering Plains, and Licking
River. In one action on the
Licking River, they rescued a white woman from the
Indians identified only as M.
Fali.
Wilson and a detail of men
escorted her to safety to Harrodsburg and Wilson
remained there until his
discharge once again under the direct command of
Col. Clark.
Wilson later received pension #8413 as a
private for $80.00 a month,
which was unusual as most officers received only
$60.00 and privates much less.
I found someone who has more on Wilson including
some stories told by him about
Daniel Boone and his war escapades but she is in the
process of moving and
hasn�t sent them to me yet. Bits and pieces: I have received a copy of
Wilson's family bible, which lists many of his
children and deaths which
confirmed what I had already complied. Does anyone
know who has the original
bible? Stephen MADDOX appears as a
witness on some Maddox documents of the 1800's in
Kentucky. He appears to have
been some type of lawyer or legal person. Have not
placed Stephen in the tree
anywhere yet but his will mentioned a brother,
Wilson. Not sure which Wilson
Maddox he referred to. A Stephen W. Maddox is listed
as one of the executors of
Wilson�s will. He may come from the Notley Maddox
line also of Shelby County
KY. Notley�s line is connected to my Wilson�s line
way back in Virginia but
not sure how yet. I have John S. C. Maddox's
will. The will gives Paschal Mathis MADDOX 62 acres
of land in Henry County KY
and half a house, others are given land but will
doesn't say in what county,
just Kentucky. I have received copies of his family
bible. My great-grandfather, John
Harlan Maddox, died in Jericho, Henry County KY in
1900 and reportly kept a
family journal of sorts that disappeared, anyone has
any idea where it is? I
have an old photo dated 1909 of his home in
Jericho. I have found a Texas
connection with some postcards written by cousin
"Lovla" to my
great-grandmother, Anna Maddox. The postcard is
postmarked Claude, Texas, 1909
and speaks of her new baby. I have a picture of her
labeled Cuz Lovla with a
small baby in Claude, Texas and one picture of her
husband "Orville"
on a horse in Texas roping a cow dated 1914. I
haven't been able to find any
direct Texas cousins yet but have found mention of
some Maddoxes that were part
of a wagon train of Kentuckians that went to Texas
after the civil war. They
started a town named "Kentucky town" in
Texas but is a ghost town now.
Don�t know if any of my Maddox line went there but
several Maddoxes from
Kentucky are mentioned in old records of the town.
I have records of a few
Maddoxes that served in the Civil War but haven�t
connected them all yet. It
appears most served with the Union. I have a list of Maddox and
relation�s burial sites and cemeteries in Henry and
surrounding counties in
KY, which I am trying to connect all the dots. About
half I have placed in my
tree. Be glad to send anyone a list. Copies of any wills, obits,
etc., are appreciated. I don't need certified or
official copies-just a plain
copy machine copy will do. Please contact me before
incurring any copy costs,
birth and death records copy costs are high and add
up. I am not in Kentucky
where most of these connections are and must rely on
kindness of others to help.
Please feel free to copy, pass this around, etc. I
need all the help I can get. Any help and information to
fill in blanks, no matter how trivial, greatly
appreciated. Respond to: John Harley Maddox Jbkamadx@aol.com Or write; John Harley Maddox 165 Imogene St. Prattville, AL 36067
