Parentage
- On 26 March 2015, Jeffrey WOODWARD incorrectly added the parents of Lydia CLAY as John CLAY and Anna Amelia ELSWICK.
- Evidence:
- It is currently unknown if John CLAY and Anna Amelia ELSWICK had a daughter named Lydia CLAY, but if they did she was not the wife of William B. IRICK. The permission for Lydia CLAY to marry William IRICK was given by the oral consent of Andrew AKERS who was listed as being her guardian. Since it is known that Andrew AKERS had at least nine illegitimate children by Jincy CLAY, it iis more likely that they were Lydia CLAY's parents. The marriage was on 8 August 1843 in Pike County, Kentucky.
Children:
- From Census Records:
- John IRICK (Born: About 1845 in Pike County, Kentucky)
- William IRICK (Born: About 1847 in Pike County, Kentucky)
