Biography

Bio Sketch from her FAG memorial

"The Ansel and Elizabeth Bradley Bailey family has been meticulously researched for many years by his descendant, Dr. Lloyd Bailey, Prof. of Theology at Duke University. His findings are that Ansel is the son of Edmund Bailey, a soldier in the French and Indian War.

"Ansel was married to Elizabeth Bradley 11 April 1789 in Wilkes County, North Carolina. Known children are: Charles, Martha Elvira, Mary Ann, "Yellow Jacket" John, Frances, Edward, James, Jesse, Susannah

"Ansel Bailey, wife Elizabeth, and approximately 30-35 other Bailey family members are interred at the foot of Bailey Mountain near his old home. In the 1960s it was located near the Henry Grindstaff barn and only a half dozen markers were visible. By 1981 it had been dozed to make room for a mobile home.

"In 1988, a large marker was erected in the memory of Ansel, Elizabeth and others who are interred there.

"Researcher of this family can see more information in the book "The Heritage of the Toe River Valley" Vol. I edited by Dr. Lloyd Bailey, page 119 article 138.

"Note: Birth/death dates are pure 'guesstimates' thinking she may have been about 20 when married in 1789, and knowing that she was not in the 1850 census. ^[1]
