    ! Died of a stroke, she was the daughter of Joe Ennis and Kate
    Montgomery Church.

    ! The following comments are notes of Mary Ilene Fleming (Hinshaw )

    ! Joe Ennis was the son of William Barton Ennis and Elizabeth Gregory.

    ! Kate Montgomery Church was the daughter of James Clark Church and
    Mary Willet Manley (the daughter of a Willet).

    ! William Barton Ennis (formerly Innis as stated by himself), son of a
    tailor, Scotch-Irish from the old country, lived in Eddysville, Kentucky.
    He married Elizabeth Gregory, a sister of this Gregory married John
    Matthews (a prosperous farmer).

    ! Mary Willet Manley (Church) - married James Clark Church (below) had one
    brother, William Manly in Logansport, Indiana who was an
    undertaker - had been raised in Maryland. Sister Mary married first to
    HULL (an artist) and traveled with him. Hull died of consumption and she
    then married James Church.

    ! James Clark Church, (married Mary Willet Manly) an Englishman, was a
    teacher and Superintendent of County Schools in Lyon County, Kentucky
    (Mary Ilene Fleming's birth County). He was also coroner and a surveyor.
    His father (was unknown to the descendants) - went to England to settle an
    estate and nothing was ever known what he did with the money. There was
    some mystery aboard ship and he was never the same after the experience
    - some suspicions about what happened. He was a stone mason and
    numbered every stone in his estate home. Mary Manley Church dreamed he
    had hidden the money under a certain stone in the cellar with a certain
    number. Her husband, James, went down to the cellar, found the number
    as dreamed, but because James considered it a superstition, wouldn't dig
    for the money. Strange - when James died and was being buried the old
    homestead burned to the ground. This seemed to many as someone with
    insight burning the evidence of treasure.

    ! Mary Manly had many such dreams as above. Once when Undisclosed far into the
    country in Kentucky dreamed her brother William (Undisclosed in Logansport) was
    dead and that a letter was at the post office in town telling of his death.
    After much persuading her husband, James, got on his horse and went
    through the snow and sleet to town - the letter was there (edged in black)
    telling of the death.

    ! Elizabeth Gregory's, sister married John Matthews, a big farmer.

    Notes:

    ! The first record of John Rulaford Fleming is in the 1850 Caldwell
    County, KY Census showing him Undisclosed in the household of William and
    Catherine Roberts, he was 20 years old.

    ! John met his wife Isabella (called Mary) in Smithland, Livingston County,KY
    !Caldwell Co Marriages by Brenda Jerome,1809-l873.
    John R Fleming married Isabella A Peake (sic) on 18 July 1854 by Silas N
    Davis in Crittenden County, KY. Groom 24 Single born (Carroll Co) TN, lives
    Lyon Co Bride 18 Single, born and lives in Caldwell.

    ! From Mother's Notes
    ! Grandfather Reverand John Rulaford Fleming was raised in Tennessee,
    probably in Knoxville, Later lived in Eureka, Lyon County, KY. His mother was
    a Rulaford. Sisters of John Rulaford Fleming (Mary and Catherine) each
    married a Hildreth. Catherine Hildreth had a daughter named Sarah who,
    late in life, married Marcelus Newton SWINDLER in Dawson Springs,
    Kentucky and had children, Dora, May, and Dave.

    ! From an article on Page 8 the July 28, 1971 Sun Democrat newspaper of
    Paducah, Kentucky By KATE (FLEMING) BOUCHER HAMMOND, a
    granddaughter of John R. Fleming. John R. Fleming was a First Lieutenant,
    Company H of the 20th Kentucky Volunteer Regiment Infantry (Union). Film
    Number M386 roll 9

    ! The 20th Kentucky Volunteer Infantry, USA was organized late 1861 and
    mustered into United States service 6 Jan 1862 at Smithland, Kentucky
    (Livingston County). It participated in the battles Shiloh, TN, Corinth, MS,
    Lebanon, KY, Kenesaw Mountain, GA, Dallas, GA, Ackworth, GA, and Atlanta,
    Georgia. It was mustered out at Louisville, KY, 17 January 1865 with the
    members being transferred to the 6th KY Veteran Cavalry. Abstracted
    from the Adjutant General Report

    ! "It was early April in 1862 (this may have been 1861) and a detachment
    from General Lew Wallace's army had reached Smithland, Ky., along the
    Dover Road. The man in charge was the Reverend John Rulaford Fleming,
    who had freed his slaves and joined the Union forces. He was a native
    Lyon countian, his family still remaining there.

    ! "On this particular occasion his wife, Isabella (Peek) Fleming, had the
    good fortune of meeting him there with their infant baby (Madora
    Adeline, the mother of the author of this article) who was two months
    old. She had ridden there by horseback, accompanied by a former slave who
    helped with the new baby. The mother's prized attire--a dress
    skirt--is now on loan to the Market House Museum in Paducah and may be
    viewed there

    ! "The event was a joyous one and the happenings of this meeting hold
    treasured memories which have been told and retold to the generations
    which followed. This quest of adventure and command of men was to
    lead to Shiloh over the Dover Road, where Grant's men had been camping.
    It was the leader's task, a man who had left his position as a Methodist
    minister, with conviction and compulsion, to accompany this mission for the
    Union.

    ! "Leaving Smithland he marched his men, and reached Gum Springs
    Baptist Church by nightfall. Here he conducted a prayer meeting, and
    they rested and camped until morning.

    ! "On the second day there was an advance of about 16 miles, when they
    reached the cross roads of the Dover Road and stopped at a small
    community then known as Nickellville, the name bearing relation to the
    families Undisclosed there by that name. It consisted of a country store and a
    few homes.

    ! "After resting and refreshing themselves as best as they could the men
    took the train again to proceed to Golden Pond. This was the last sojourn
    before pursuing the remaining stretch of road to Dover, Tennessee and
    finally to Shiloh where the battle occurred. The heaviest losses for both
    sides were there.

    ! "In three years the war was over-in 1865. The men came home. There
    was much to be done toward reconstruction."

    ! "On February 5, 1862 John R. is wounded. On February 8, 1862 he
    tenders his resignation from the regiment. I obtained a copy of John's file
    from the U.S. Pension Agency, dated June 28, 1896 which states" John R.
    Fleming, lst Lt of 20 KY, who was a pensioner of this Agency under
    Certificate No. 351432 and who was last paid $24 to 1st of November
    1895, has been dropped because of death, December 20, 1895."

    !After John R. died on December 20, 1895, hia wife, Isabella, filed for the
    pension on John R. on November 28, 1902 until November 24, 1914 when
    the Department of the Interior dropped Isabella from the pension rolls due
    to her death on August 21, 1914. On July 20, 1897 J.M. Smith, Clerk of
    the Lyon county Court filed an affidavit for Isabella's petition for her
    Widow's Pension stating that "Mrs. Isabella Fleming is assessed for
    Taxation for same year of 1897 with 181 acres of land (value $605) and
    personal property of $34 making a total of $639."

    ! The 20th Regiment was mustered in on January 6, 1862 and mustered out
    on January 17, 1865.

    Mr. John David Fleming
    450 Forest Road
    Benton, KY 42025 Telephone 270.354.6519
    Email flemco@vci.net

    !Dear John:

    ! Thanks for the Fleming information you sent to me. It is both enlightening
    and helpful.

    !1.Referring first to your cover letter (email) of December 4, 1998
    paragraphs 5 & 6. The Rulaford name came from my mother's writings and
    original notes, see attached.

    ! I failed to notice the discrepancy you pointed out between my mother's
    "Rulaford" notation that Rulaford was his mother's maiden name and the
    later information about her g-grandfather, David Fleming married Martha
    (Patsy) Russell.

    ! Adding further confusion is that one of John R. Fleming's sons (Edward
    Gyer Fleming) had a son named George Ruleford (sic) Fleming.

    ! Further complicating this situation are the following notes received
    from you "Information in Carroll Co. Tenessee Court House show that
    David lost his land at the Court House door to settle a tax lien. Evidence
    suggests that his first wife, MARTHA HAD DIED PRIOR TO THIS AND HE HAD
    REMARRIED. Looking at Census records in TN for 1820 & 1830 show a 15
    year difference between husband and wife, However in 1840 there is
    a 20 year difference. If David did marry twice, the second wife's maiden
    name could have been RULAFORD/RULEFORD.

    John married Isabella A._(Mary) Peek on 18 Jul 1854 in Crittenden, County, KY. Isabella (daughter of Thomas W. Peek and Frances Marshall) was born on 1 Jun 1834 in Caldwell, County, KY; died on 22 Aug 1914 in Eureka, Lyon County, KY; was buried in Jones Cemetery, Lyon County, KY. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    ! Isabella's maiden name was misspelled on her Marriage Certificate as
    "Peake" - of which there were many such persons in the area.

    ! The 1900 Lyon County census shows Isabella (Peek) Fleming) Undisclosed in the
    household of Thomas Logan Boucher and her daughter, Madora (Dora)
    Adeline. Also included were Isabella's grandchildren Lora (12), Josephine
    (10), Edgar (4), and Russell (2). They were the children of Mary Belle Koon
    (Fleming) who died May 18, 1900). It is not known what happened to their
    father, Jefferson Davis Koon.

    Census records in TN for 1820 & 1830 show a 15 year difference between
    husband and wife. However in 1840 there is a 20 year difference.

    ! Suspicion: Martha had died, the two boys could (20 & 25) were old enough
    to work. Mary was 16, old enough to help around the house and take care of
    12 year old Catherine. The first record of John Rulaford Fleming is in the
    1850 Caldwell County, KY Census showing him Undisclosed in the household of
    William and Catherine Roberts, he was 20 years old. Was he sent to
    live/work with "others" when his Mother died?

    ! If David did marry twice, the second wife's maiden name was RULAFORD
    because writings of Mary Ilene Fleming stated that John Rulaford Fleming
    was named after his Mother.

    ! 1850 Census, Caldwell Co., KY, Sept. 26, 1850 dwelling 825; family 825:
    Page 21; William Roberts; age 22; laborer; born Tennessee; wife Catherine,
    Robert, George W., Robert; age 5; John Fleming; age 20; laborer; born
    Tennessee. (This is the John Rulaford Fleming shown above.)

    !FLEMING SURNAME HISTORY
    by Paul McCotter

    !The majority of Irish Flemings must descend from the many individual
    Flemings who settled throughout the Anglo-Norman colonial area at the
    time of the invasion. Certainly the name occurs in virtually every colonial
    county in the Justiciary Rolls of the period 1295-1314. A particularly
    important family of the name were lords of Slane in County Meath.

    !The surname is scattered throughout Ireland and those in the three
    southern provinces certainly descend in general from settlers of the
    Anglo-Norman period. In Ulster most Flemings must descend from
    seventeenth century Scottish settlers, Fleming being a leading Scottish
    surname although ultimately of the same origin as the Irish name.
