"James McAfee, Sr. was a large, squarely built man, six feet high, with large bones, strong passions, and great decision of character. He had large hazel eyes. When aroused he was ready for any enterprise, and shrank not from danger. Nevertheless, he was amenable to reason, and could be ruled by gentleness and love."

"His wife, Jane McMichael, whom he called 'Jinny,' was a woman above the average size, tall and dignified. In a deed executed in 1767 she joins her husband, signing her name as Jannet. She had a remarkably fine face, and a prominent forehead. Her eyes were dark grey in color, and her hair black. Her expression combined decision with mildness and conciliation. When her husband would become aroused and angry she knew how to calm and silence him by her gentle and persuasive manner."

PARKE COUNTY PORTRAIT AND BIO RECORD - pAGE 245 This is a long Article so will only highlight the most important parts.
Alexander Buchanan for forty-five years has been Justice of the Peace in WashingtonTwp, Parke County. At the time of his father's death, which occurred on March 29, 1838, our subject came into possession of the old homestead,which consisted of about three hundred and twenty acres, and to this he, with his son Joseph, has added two hundred and eighty acres. As a farmer his career has been very successful and he has laid up sufficient to surround his declining years with every comfort. He was born in the year 1813 in Mercer County, Ky., and is the son of James and Margaret (McCampbell) Buchanan.
The father was a son of George and Margaret (McAfee) Buchanan, the former of whom was born in Va. The Buchanan and Mcafee familes both had representatives in the Revolutionary War. George Buchanan was a Whig in politics and was engaged in battle with the Indians several times. He was reared under the old roof-tree but having a step-mother he started out to make his own living when quite young. He had but one own borther, David, who died when young, but had two half-brothers, William and John. In his native State he married the daughter of James McAfee and shortly after went to Ky, where he entered Government land in Mercer County. His death occurred about the year 1812, in the faith of the Presbyterian Church, which he helped to establish in Mercer Co. He reared a family of Ten children of whom James the the oldested, the others being John, Aleander, George, Polly (Mrs Wm Provine), Margaret (Mrs.Thomas Carr); Jane (Mrs James MCCampbell), Ann (wife of Joseph Woods), Nany (Mrs.Thomas Gilkerson), and Dorcas, wife of Joseph Woods, who is a cousin of Mrs. Ann Woods' husband.
Our subject's father was born in Va and went to Ky when about 18 yrs of age, living with his uncle McAfee. He purchased land in Mercer County and followed frrming during his life-time, though he was in the milling business for a short time with his brother. He was first married in Kentucky, when Rebecca Armstrong became his wife. They had four childre: Margaret, wife of Mathew Taylor; John, George and Robert all deceased. AFter the death of this wife Mr. Buchanan married the lady who become our subject's mother. Of her three children, two died in infancy, and our subject is the only survivor. The father left Ky and on his arrival in Parke County, entered land of the Government this being in 1820. The following yeqar, in October he brought his family in wagons to the place whifh was his home untl his death March 29, 1833.
The gentleman of whom this is a brief bio lived with his parents until their death. He was married in 1839 to Miss Harriet, daughter of Benjamin an Margaret (Youel) Allen, who were natives of the Old Dominion, while Mrs. Buchanan came from the Blue Grass region. Children of our subject: Joseph C; Elizabeth J., wife of John McMutry; William Y who wedded Mary Mitchell and one who died in Infancy."

"On June 10, 1770, he bought 163 acres on Catawba Creek in Botetourt County, Virginia from his father-in-law, James McAfee. George sold the land back to James McAfee on May 15, 1772. He later moved to what is now Washington County, Virginia.
In his father's will, which was proved in 1765, he had received 107 acres of a parcel of land on Walker's Creek in Augusta. In November of 1782, while living in Washington County, he and his brothers, who had also received parcels of the same property on Walker's Creek, deeded that land to their brother David, which amounted to 415 acres.
About 1782 George and Margaret moved family to Salt River in Mercer County, Kentucky. On July 11, 1794, he gave a power of attorney to Arthur Campbell to receive a deed from James Wood for 200 acres on Cedar Creek in Washington County, Virginia, receiving the deed from Mary Wood on November 10, 1794.
George died in May 5, 1813 in Mercer County, Kentucky. We don't have a death date for his wife, Margaret."

Susannah was born just as the McAfee company was leaving Virginia for Kentucky: "My father and uncles & Grandfather McCoun & his family with the Adams, Currys, etc., consisting of three or four Patriarchal families having made extensive arrangements left their home in Bottetourt county Virginia on the 17th of August for Kentucky, leaving Geo. McAfees wife who had just been confined to follow on as soon as she was able to ride, which she was in three days after, the company moved slowly and halted at the Ford of New River for George McAfee to return for his wife, who to his great surprise he met coming the next morning."

Epitaph: "In the various relations of life, public and private, his deportment was elevated, his conduct upright, as a husband and father devoted, affectionate, and kind. As a citizen, public spirited, enterprising and courteous. As a Christian active, faithful, constant, and sincere. As a church officer, prompt, hedicious, efficient. As a patriot, ardent, genuine, decided, and beloved. As a soldier, bold, undaunted, and heroic in battle. As a statesman, whether in the service of his country or minister abroad in the house or senate of his native state or as lieutenant-governor and presiding officer of senate, his duties were performed with vigor, energy, and fidelity and recieved the need of public approbation."

Robert B. McAfee described his first meeting of his wife as follows: "This was the 1st day of October [1804], and for the first time I saw my future wife not then twelve years old, I thought her a very pretty little girl, but had no farther thoughts about her as my whole prospects were in another direction." And later, "On the 1st of June [1805] my sister Mrs. Adams called to see me, and noticed Mr. Cardwells daughter Mary (who I afterwards married) & observed to me that she was my girl & would make me a fine wife, she was then only twelve years old The remark struck me with great force at the time, which caused me to take more notice of her than I otherwise would, but I had no idea then that she was to be my wife, yet I was much pleased with her beauty, and took occasion to converse with her I was astonished at her intelligence as well as the ease with which she conversed with me, which was with as much steadiness as if she had been twenty years of age & her language seemed to be far above her age being not only correct but elegant, I soon viewed her as a being of superior order to most females I had met as she would reason & argue with me on many subjects I had supposed she had never thought of."

167. "GILKESON, John Calvin -- No man in Parke Co. is better and more favorably known that Squire John Calvin Gilkeson of Catlin. Throughout his manhood's years he has been active in the affairs of his twp. and vicinity. he has been continually called on for counsel for more than 40 years. He was b. in Mercer Co Ky May 27, 1809 and is the s/o Thomas and Nancy (BUCHANAN) Gilkeson, both b. in Va. In the fall of 1821 when John was a boy, his parents came to Parke Co, settling on the W 1/2 of SW 1/4 of Sec 5, Raccoon Twp, on which they built a log cabin. All seemed thrifty in the Gilkeson domain, but unluckily the father of the family had affixed his name to the bond of an unscrupulous treasurer and collector and the little home was sold by the sheriff. But the sheriff did not sell their courage. As the family moved onward John came into possession of a pair of steers, which he trained into a yoke of oxen, which he drove in repairing the the broken dam of the old mill they had built years before. He soon obtained another yoke and made some money in hauling his lumber to Rockville, where lumber was then in demand. He also rebuilt the mill in 1837, doing all the framing, millwrighting and blacksmithing himself. From 1839 to 1846 he built several flatboats, which he ran down to the Wabash River, during the spring freshets, and sold. On Sept 29, 1838 his mother d. and was borne to her rest, leaving her husband and family. Aug 24, 1842, John C. was marr. to Mary REA, d/o William and sister to the first clerk of the Parke Co. Circuit court. They have no children. In 1847, Aug 7, his father, Thomas died. On Aug 5, 1874, Mary, w/o JC Gilkeson, also died, aged about 71. In 1844 Mr. Gilkeson was elected justice of the peace in Raccoon Twp, which office he has filled ever since, wiht he exception of about 2 and a half years. he has been engaged in probate court 50 years. In 1853 he was elected an elder in the Rockville Presby. church, of which he and his wife and parents were members. His ancestry runs back to the old Scotch Presbyterian sect. Squire Gilkeson has voted whig and republican straight along, never having scratched his ticket of missed an election. In his old age he is still useful to his community, giving advice on points of law, and drawing up writings which no lawyer can criticise."

"Glenn Willis: In 1774, Willis Lee accompanied his cousin Hancock Taylor, his brother, Hancock Lee and a party of surveyors including James Douglass, Isaac Hite, and John Floyd. Just a few days before his death, Hancock Taylor left part of the land he had surveyed to his cousin, Hancock Lee. In 1783, Hancock Lee gave his nephew, Willis Atwell Lee, an acre of ground on at Leestown on the banks of the Kentucky River. Willis built a two story, log home, which was his residence for over thirty years. Lee became prominent in Franklin County, serving as Court Court Clerk. About 1815, Willis Lee replaced his original log house with a one and a half story brick home he called Glen Willis. Lee lived in this residence until his death in 1824. Then in 1832 the house passed to HUMPHREY MARSHALL, who resided there until his death in 1841. A few years after the death of Marshall, William Harrison Murray bought Glen Willis. He remodeled the house and added a third floor. At William's death the house passed to his son, James A. Murray. For many years Glen Willis remained in ruin. Today the house has been completely restored, as much as possible to its original design."
