Zack, I copied the information on FamilySearch.org re the marriage record in Kentucky. I don't know who anybody is, I just wanted to get a source on this profile as a starting point. If there are other sources, i.e. records, research, or documents (not family trees on other websites), then they should be added to this profile. The name kept being changed and I saw NO research supporting any of the changes. I did not change the spelling of the names on the profiles; I just copied over the spelling from the record. Hope this helps.
Quite honestly there is some confusion on her married name. I believe (but do not have proof) that her husband Joseph is likely a SCHERMERHORN descendant. Some researchers have Joseph as a son of Pieter (Peter) Schermerhorn, and Pieter being the son to Lucas/Luykas SCHERMERHORN.
I've added a source to this profile. It supports the LNAB. The census records differ in spelling and probably the census takers misspelled their names and then the transcribers made it worse.
