Research Notes

Being researched. Basically, no information at all. FamilySearch profiles show her marriage to Thomas Welch in 1807 in Winchester, Kentucky. Other profiles show that she married Thomas Welch as Mary Frier 2 May 1796 in Madison, Kentucky. It is most probable that Thomas Welch was married at least once before he married Mary Yocum.
