========================================

Kerby, James and Margery Fryer. Bond #18

Bond Date: 15 October 1810. Bondsman: Walter Fryer.

(*) James Kerby married Margery Freer on 17 October 1810.

Marriage Register 1799-1849: James Kerby married Margery/Margary (given both ways) Fryer on 17 October 1810. "Personal consent by her father, Walter Fryer". pp. 29,31.

Notes for Margaret 'Margery' Fryer:1826: June 5. Apparently Margaret & James took over the house and livestock of Walter Fryer; perhaps they were living there when Walter died. James Kirby relinquished all this, totalling value of $552.03, for $5.00 from Margaret's brother, John, administrator of Walter's estate. [Source: Pendleton Co., KY, Deed Bk. E, Pg. 258f]

c. 1834: The Fryers sued James Kirby as noted in index to Pendleton Co, KY, Order Bk. G, pg. 326, 331, 338, 342, 346, 348, 361, 366, 367, 386. It was probably over the above.

1835: Wife inherited a portion of father's 550 acres. Her husb, James Kirby, sold it to bro-in-law James with a mortgage held by Mr. Kirby. Mr. Kirby decided to sell it, so John Fryer [James's brother & administrator of father's estate] relinquished all rights. [Source: Pendleton Co., KY, Order Bk. F, pg. 10-11] (I have wondered if Margaret had died because she is not listed as a seller to her inherited land.)

==========================

Dr. Bradford's History Of Harris Creek Church At Boston, This CountyThe Falmouth Outlook - Friday, December 28, 1834Transcribed with permission by Bonnie Snow

The Outlook published a few weeks ago the history of Butler Baptist Church, in which I was much interested from the fact that my father and mother were charter members and I also was a member for a number of years. The history will not be completer without the history of the old Harris Creek Baptist Church at Boston Station, which was organized on Oct. 21, 1843, ninety-one years ago last October. The old minutes of the church are in my possession and contain much information that is interesting. It existed forty-one years, disbanding in July, 1884. The Butler church was organized


interesting. It existed forty-one years, disbanding in July, 1884. The Butler church was organized in November, 1884, so it is a continuation of the old church.

Six of the charter members, Hugh Bradford and wife, my father and mother, W. L. Barton and wife, Mrs. Howe and Mrs. A. Hensley (nee Addie Benton) had been former members of the Harris Creek Church. Immediately after the organization of the Butler Church a number who had obtained letters from the old church united with the Butler church, making up a large part of the congregation.

Those who called for letters the day the old church was disbanded are as follows: James W. Huff, Mary A. Huff, Mary J. Johnson, T. J. McKee, Sarah M. McKee, J. L. Johnson, Jennie Johnson, W. G. Williams, Delia Williams, Maggie Ellis, Velia A. Huff, Mollie Hathaway, Elizabeth Beckett, Ira F. Shannon, Jane A. Shannon, John A. Shannon and S. A. Huff.

The old church was organized in the old hewed log school house that stood on Harris Creek. The farm is now owned by J. C. Kirby, and was built in 1812 or 1815, size about 20x30, with a big stone fireplace in one end of the building. I have a very distinct recollection of the old house, for it was there that I first attended school.

I am quoting from the minutes the call for the organization of the church: Be it recorded that on the 21st day of October, 1842, the following named persons met at the Harris Creek school house, agreeable to previous notice, for the purpose of constituting themselves into a regular Baptist Church: "Matthew Wright, William Wright, Elizabeth Wright, Jaily Ducker, Colored Jane, Sarah Stewart, Elizabeth Wright and Martha Wright. Brother Morin being invited, preached a sermon on the occasion from the 133rd Psalm, 1st verse: 'Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethern to dwell together in unity.' Thomas Waggoner was chosen Moderator and W. J. Morin, Clerk.The following churches having been sent to for help, sent their delegates, as follows: From Falmouth, Thomas Waggoner, B. L. Minor and P. L. G. Watson; from Second Twelve-Mile, Forgus German, Charles Dickens, John C. Chutter, William Dawson, David Lewis and H. W. Ellis. Bro. Wm. J. Morin and Edward Nelson from Flagg Spring being present, were invited and took seats with them, also Brother Thomas Logan from Second Twelve-Mile and Brother Wm. Lancaster from Short Creek, being invited, took seats with them."Thereupon the Article of Faith and Rules of Decorum being read, the above named members were asked if they subscribed to them and they all answered in the affirmative. Council unanimously concurred, whereupon they sang a hymn and gave each other the right hand of fellowship, the brother Moderator announcing them a duly constituted church of Jesus Christ. Amen. Thomas Waggoner, Moderator. W. J. Morin, Clerk.

"After the constitution was adopted the church sit in order to do business and chose unanimously Bro. Forgus German to the pastoral charge of the church, to which he consented, and William Wright was appointed Clerk." The membership of this old church was made up of some of the pioneers of that section of Pendleton County, but largely of their sons and daughters. Many fine meetings were held during its 41 years of existence, and for a country church it had a large membership.

The first pastor was Forgus German, who served seven years; Alexander W. Mullins, seven years; J. R. Barbee, seven years; and other pastors from one to three years.

One of the characteristics of the old church was its faithfulness in having its regular monthly meetings almost always on the third Saturday before the third Sunday. The business of the church was transacted on Saturday.

Although this church was organized six years before I was born, I can distinctly remember three of the charter members, Matthew Wright, Jaily Ducker and Colored Jane. Matthew Wright was appointed Clerk at its organization and served until the first of March, 1855. As I can remember him, he was a fine type of the old pioneer, with strong convictions and uncompromising integrity. He owned a large farm on Licking River and was known as one of the fine citizens of Pendleton County. The farm is now owned by Judge Leslie T. Applegate. Jaily Ducker, or Aunt Ducker, as she was known by everybody when I was a child, was the grand old woman of this section of the

Generation 3 (con't)she was known by everybody when I was a child, was the grand old woman of this section of the county, loved by everybody, with a wide influence in the church. When there was trouble of any kind it was taken to Aunt Jaily for settling. She was the mother of Jackson Ducker, Richard Ducker, William Ducker, Mrs. Fryer, Mrs. Savassa Kirby and Mrs. W. W. Cowles. There are a number of grandsons and granddaughters, great-grandsons and great-granddaughters now living in Butler and vicinity. The memory of this loveable old woman will never be forgotten. Colored Jane, a Negro woman, belonged to my grandfather, John Bradford, who was a strong Methodist, Aunt Jennie, as we children always called her, was a staunch Baptist, and long and many where their arguments over the Bible, but neither could be convinced. I can see her today with her black face and white hair. When she died she was buried in a little graveyard near grandfather's house. These were the types of the foundation stock of this old church.

Soon after its organization, the church joined the Union Association and remained as such until they disbanded. They worshiped in the old log school house until about 1858 or 1859, when it became necessary to build a new school house near the center of the district. It was located near Boston Station on the Lloyd Kirby farm, a part of the old Ducker farm. When it was compleded they held their services there under the name of Harris Creek Baptist Church.

The old minutes are in a very good state of preservation, considering the handling they have gone through and the fading of some inks. They contain many things of interest as to dates, etc. The old church made its contribution to the building up of the moral character and Christian influence in the community where it was located.

There were some very active and influential members in this old church that I can remember well whom I would like to comment on but it would make this article entirely too long. I will give some of the names on the church roll, but as families only: Bonars, Duckers, Becketts, Bradfords, Bartons, Shoemakers, Ellises, Kirbys, Wrights, Marshalls, Hendricks, Burlews, Bylands, Williamses, and Mullinses. It was from this old stock that the church was built.

During its existence of 41 years it had only three Clerks, probably a record: Matthew Wright, from organization to March 1, 1855; Hugh Bradford, my father, from March 1, 1855, to Oct. 1, 1870; Ira F. Shannon, until disbanded, 1884.

The denominations in Pendleton County at its organization in 1799 consisted only of Baptist and Methodists, Falmouth and Short Creek being the two oldest Baptist Churches in the county. Spencer's history of the early Baptist Churches of Kentucky says there was a Baptist Church organized at Flour Creek in 1790 to 1800 and continued as such until in the decade 1830 to 1840. A Mr. Taylor was the first pastor when the reformation swept over Kentucky, led by Alexander Campbell and others, causing many divisions of churches, but some went over to the reformation in a body and the Flour Creek Church was one of these, and it is now known as the Flour Creek Christian Church. I suppose the Mr. Taylor spoken of was one of the pioneer Taylors of that section of the county.

These old churches of Pendleton County are something to be proud of. They have always been loyal to Jesus Christ and His teachings, standing for good citizenship in county and state. Their influence over men has spread far and wide over many states where their members have gone.

This is just my recollection of the old Harris Creek Baptist Church. To write its complete history would take to much time and space.

Notes for John Calvin Breckenridge Kirby:Dr. Bradford's History Of Harris Creek Church At Boston, This CountyThe Falmouth Outlook - Friday, December 28, 1834Transcribed with permission by Bonnie Snow

The Outlook published a few weeks ago the history of Butler Baptist Church, in which I was much interested from the fact that my father and mother were charter members and I also was a member for a number of years. The history will not be completer without the history of the old Harris Creek Baptist Church at Boston Station, which was organized on Oct. 21, 1843, ninety-one years ago last October. The old minutes of the church are in my possession and contain much information that is interesting. It existed forty-one years, disbanding in July, 1884. The Butler church was organized in November, 1884, so it is a continuation of the old church.

Six of the charter members, Hugh Bradford and wife, my father and mother, W. L. Barton and wife, Mrs. Howe and Mrs. A. Hensley (nee Addie Benton) had been former members of the Harris Creek Church. Immediately after the organization of the Butler Church a number who had obtained letters from the old church united with the Butler church, making up a large part of the congregation.

Those who called for letters the day the old church was disbanded are as follows: James W. Huff, Mary A. Huff, Mary J. Johnson, T. J. McKee, Sarah M. McKee, J. L. Johnson, Jennie Johnson, W. G. Williams, Delia Williams, Maggie Ellis, Velia A. Huff, Mollie Hathaway, Elizabeth Beckett, Ira F. Shannon, Jane A. Shannon, John A. Shannon and S. A. Huff.

The old church was organized in the old hewed log school house that stood on Harris Creek. The farm is now owned by J. C. Kirby, and was built in 1812 or 1815, size about 20x30, with a big stone fireplace in one end of the building. I have a very distinct recollection of the old house, for it was there that I first attended school.

I am quoting from the minutes the call for the organization of the church: Be it recorded that on the 21st day of October, 1842, the following named persons met at the Harris Creek school house, agreeable to previous notice, for the purpose of constituting themselves into a regular Baptist Church: "Matthew Wright, William Wright, Elizabeth Wright, Jaily Ducker, Colored Jane, Sarah Stewart, Elizabeth Wright and Martha Wright. Brother Morin being invited, preached a sermon on the occasion from the 133rd Psalm, 1st verse: 'Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethern to dwell together in unity.' Thomas Waggoner was chosen Moderator and W. J. Morin, Clerk.The following churches having been sent to for help, sent their delegates, as follows: From

The following churches having been sent to for help, sent their delegates, as follows: From Falmouth, Thomas Waggoner, B. L. Minor and P. L. G. Watson; from Second Twelve-Mile, Forgus German, Charles Dickens, John C. Chutter, William Dawson, David Lewis and H. W. Ellis. Bro. Wm. J. Morin and Edward Nelson from Flagg Spring being present, were invited and took seats with them, also Brother Thomas Logan from Second Twelve-Mile and Brother Wm. Lancaster from Short Creek, being invited, took seats with them."Thereupon the Article of Faith and Rules of Decorum being read, the above named members were asked if they subscribed to them and they all answered in the affirmative. Council unanimously concurred, whereupon they sang a hymn and gave each other the right hand of fellowship, the brother Moderator announcing them a duly constituted church of Jesus Christ. Amen. Thomas Waggoner, Moderator. W. J. Morin, Clerk.

"After the constitution was adopted the church sit in order to do business and chose unanimously Bro. Forgus German to the pastoral charge of the church, to which he consented, and William Wright was appointed Clerk." The membership of this old church was made up of some of the pioneers of that section of Pendleton County, but largely of their sons and daughters. Many fine meetings were held during its 41 years of existence, and for a country church it had a large membership.

The first pastor was Forgus German, who served seven years; Alexander W. Mullins, seven years; J. R. Barbee, seven years; and other pastors from one to three years.

One of the characteristics of the old church was its faithfulness in having its regular monthly meetings almost always on the third Saturday before the third Sunday. The business of the church was transacted on Saturday.

Although this church was organized six years before I was born, I can distinctly remember three of the charter members, Matthew Wright, Jaily Ducker and Colored Jane. Matthew Wright was appointed Clerk at its organization and served until the first of March, 1855. As I can remember him, he was a fine type of the old pioneer, with strong convictions and uncompromising integrity. He owned a large farm on Licking River and was known as one of the fine citizens of Pendleton County. The farm is now owned by Judge Leslie T. Applegate. Jaily Ducker, or Aunt Ducker, as she was known by everybody when I was a child, was the grand old woman of this section of the county, loved by everybody, with a wide influence in the church. When there was trouble of any kind it was taken to Aunt Jaily for settling. She was the mother of Jackson Ducker, Richard Ducker, William Ducker, Mrs. Fryer, Mrs. Savassa Kirby and Mrs. W. W. Cowles. There are a number of grandsons and granddaughters, great-grandsons and great-granddaughters now living in Butler and vicinity. The memory of this loveable old woman will never be forgotten. Colored Jane, a Negro woman, belonged to my grandfather, John Bradford, who was a strong Methodist, Aunt Jennie, as we children always called her, was a staunch Baptist, and long and many where their arguments over the Bible, but neither could be convinced. I can see her today with her black face and white hair. When she died she was buried in a little graveyard near grandfather's house. These were the types of the foundation stock of this old church.

Soon after its organization, the church joined the Union Association and remained as such until they disbanded. They worshiped in the old log school house until about 1858 or 1859, when it became necessary to build a new school house near the center of the district. It was located near Boston Station on the Lloyd Kirby farm, a part of the old Ducker farm. When it was compleded they held their services there under the name of Harris Creek Baptist Church.

The old minutes are in a very good state of preservation, considering the handling they have gone through and the fading of some inks. They contain many things of interest as to dates, etc. The old church made its contribution to the building up of the moral character and Christian influence in the community where it was located.

There were some very active and influential members in this old church that I can remember well whom I would like to comment on but it would make this article entirely too long. I will give some of the names on the church roll, but as families only: Bonars, Duckers, Becketts, Bradfords, Bartons, Shoemakers, Ellises, Kirbys, Wrights, Marshalls, Hendricks, Burlews, Bylands, Williamses, and Mullinses. It was from this old stock that the church was built.


During its existence of 41 years it had only three Clerks, probably a record: Matthew Wright, from organization to March 1, 1855; Hugh Bradford, my father, from March 1, 1855, to Oct. 1, 1870; Ira F. Shannon, until disbanded, 1884.

The denominations in Pendleton County at its organization in 1799 consisted only of Baptist and Methodists, Falmouth and Short Creek being the two oldest Baptist Churches in the county. Spencer's history of the early Baptist Churches of Kentucky says there was a Baptist Church organized at Flour Creek in 1790 to 1800 and continued as such until in the decade 1830 to 1840. A Mr. Taylor was the first pastor when the reformation swept over Kentucky, led by Alexander Campbell and others, causing many divisions of churches, but some went over to the reformation in a body and the Flour Creek Church was one of these, and it is now known as the Flour Creek Christian Church. I suppose the Mr. Taylor spoken of was one of the pioneer Taylors of that section of the county.

These old churches of Pendleton County are something to be proud of. They have always been loyal to Jesus Christ and His teachings, standing for good citizenship in county and state. Their influence over men has spread far and wide over many states where their members have gone.

This is just my recollection of the old Harris Creek Baptist Church. To write its complete history would take to much time and space.

History of the Boston Union Church

Transcribed with permission by Bonnie Snow from "The First 200 Years of Pendleton County"Compiled and written by Millie Bowen Belew

This small Methodist Church was located at the end of Ball Road, about 1/4 mile west of U. S. 27 at Boston Station. It was built shortly after Boston Station, near the Covington and Lexington Railroad, became a town in 1855. The building was officially dedicated in 1859. It enjoyed a prominent location and for many years Orvid E. Cowles sought to have a road established via the "Union Meeting House" that would have connected present day Highway 17 with U. S. 27. Mr. Cowles met much resistance to his proposal and never succeeded with his endeavor.

The old church flourished in the 1870's along with the Boston Sawmill and the railroad. Serious flooding eventually caused the sawmill to be moved to Butler and this marked the beginning of the end for this once vibrant area. Its use declined rapidly after the turn of the century; however, the cemetery received burials as late as 1955 and 1961. In September of 1949 the Boston Settlers Association held a reunion on the church grounds. Among the descendants who attended were the Duckers, Bradfords, Mullins, Ellis', McClanhans, Lovelaces, Campbells, Burlews, Newkirks, Kirbys, Blasingames and Skinners. Effort to revive the church was made through the financing of a permanent committee to keep the church and cemetery. Initially, much was done to preserve the church but time has taken its toll on this noble effort and presently the church and cemetery are in serious need of attention.

This small rural church was a part of the Methodist Conference from the early 1900's until the late 1920's. The building, which still stands, was meant to serve as an interdenominational church. It also served as a community building and a school.

With Mr. O. P. Yelton as the chief carpenter, the men of the community donated work to erect the building. Nellie (Yelton) Mann, one of Mr. Yelton's daughters, took subscriptions to raise money to finance the project. The building was erected on land provided by Mr. Lloyd Kirby.

One of the first Methodist ministers to serve the church was Rev. W. L. Clark, who performed the marriage of Mary (Mammie) Campbell and Gano Beckett on Christmas Eve, December 24, 1900. Other Methodist ministers continued to hold meetings once a month, with services on Saturday night, Sunday morning and Sunday nights. These services were well attended with the church filled to capacity and an overflow crowd outside.

The Burlews who lived on the east side of the Licking River, across from Boston Station, came to


Generation 4 (con't)The Burlews who lived on the east side of the Licking River, across from Boston Station, came to church by crossing the river boat and walking about a half mile from the river to the church. They included the families of A. Douglas Burlew, Marion Burlew and Polk Burlew. Marion served as Sunday school superintendent for a number of years. Also crossing the river to attend church were Mr. and Mrs. Milton Mulloy. Other members were O. P. Yelton and daughters, Nellie and Cora, Mrs. Mollie Edwards and daughters, Aleene and Ada (Mrs. John M. Kirby), John Beckett and family, Mabel, Jewel, Ray and Bland, Jeff Bradford, Hannah and Flora Bradford, Aunt Lit Gosney, Anna and Lillian Sine, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Gosney, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Wright, the Parsons and the Arnold, Katie and Raymond were the last to leave.

During the late 1920's the attendance began to decline, with a number of people moving their membership to Butler Methodist Church or other churches in the area. The Methodist Conference no longer provided a regular minister.

i. JOSEPH EMMETT DICKMAN5 KIRBY was born on 10 Mar 1894 in Covington, Kenton County, Kentucky, USA. He died on 01 Jan 1915 in Covington, Kenton County, Kentucky, USA.

Notes for Joseph Emmett Dickman Kirby:Joseph's stone gives Kirby as his surname, but he was a son of James Dickman and May Anderson. This was May's first marriage.

The 1900 census gives a birth of Mar 1895. However his mother was the informant for his death certificate and she gave the year that I've used for this record.
