Biography
Theodosia French was the daughter of James French and Keziah Callaway. James served in the Revolutionary War, and built a home for his family on land he had acquired from famed Kentucky Indian fighter Simon Kenton. Keziah Calloway was the daughter of Col. Richard Callaway, who had served under George Washington in both the French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War. In 1780 Col. Callaway, an associate of Daniel Boone, was ambushed and killed by Indians near Fort Boonesborough.
Theodosia was born in 1801. She passed away in 1886.
