Achsah Van Cleave

FatherRev. Ralph Van Cleave (b. 10 May 1747, d. September 1798)
MotherLydia Combs (b. circa 1748, d. 1808)
Pedigree Link

Family: Edward Polke

DaughterMary ("Polly") Polk (b. about 1795, d. 1885)
DaughterElizabeth Polke (b. 1809, d. 1881)
Birth5 October 1786In Shelby County, Kentucky, United States.
Marriage5 October 1803In Shelby County, Kentucky, United States.1
DeathAugust 1824At age 37 in Carlisle, Sullivan, Indiana, United States.
MiscTwo Achsah van... There seem to be two Achsah women: One a Van Cleave and one a Van Meter. If there is only a Van Meter one, why do we get a DNA match with an Achsah daughter of Lydia Van Cleave? Lydia's daughter married Edward and the VanMeter married Edmond Polk. So the Van Meter name is incorrect or there are two.

So these dates are no doubt wrong because they came from the Van Meter person apparently.

This tree has Ralph Van Cleave and Lydia Combs as the parents but points for information to the findagrave of the Van Meter woman.

MiscEdward vs Edmond. This family is totally messed up with an Edward Polk and an Edmond Polk and an Achsah VanMeter and an Achsah Van Cleave. There is surely a Van Cleave because we have DNA matches.

Elizabeth Barnett

F, #3110, b. 1684, d. after 10 August 1732
Last name Barnett from Lyndon Baines Johnson's familysearch tree. BUT it's apparently not her maiden name. FS says:
When Elizabeth Barnett was born in 1690, in Virginia, United States, her father, Alvin M Hutchins, was 26 and her mother, Elizabeth McCann, was 26. She married Thomas Baber Sr. in 1709, in Virginia, British Colonial America. They were the parents of at least 3 sons and 2 daughters. She died in 1758, in Virginia, British Colonial America, at the age of 68.

Some old record says her birth name was Hutchins.
FS tree has her parents:
Alvin M. Hutchins (1665 - )
Elizabeth McCann (1665 - )

3/2024. I searched the book Robert Hutchins of colonial America : the historical Hutchins family records by Hutchins, Jack Randolph, 1927- at archive.org for Alvin Hutchins and McCann and found nothing.

There were McCann )(McCane)people in Virginia in the 1600s, but little information about them.

MiscDNA Matches - good but... 7/26/2024 Scott's DNA on Dessie
It has us under Margaret Welch and full siblings with Elizabeth, William, Robert b1732, Anne b1733
The matches are with both parents, Robert Baber and Margaret Welch. Is it because trees are wrong or???
