Notes for ELI BOOTS (I):

  • "Descendants of Adam Boots" [LDS film#1033425] pp. 674-679, 680, 691 (family group sheet) [p. 691: "pedigree chart for Mary Eliz. Boots" gives Eli Boots’ wife to be ‘Martha Lackey’, and birthdate ‘11 Jan 1815’];

  • e-mail, Mary Eliz. Boots to L. Ellingham [30-VII-2001]: ‘[Clyde S. Boots] & I concluded, but without proof, that Martha [Lackey] may have been married to a Cunningham prior to marrying Eli’ otherwise noting Martha definitely to be a sister of James Lackey’ & ‘Eli, Margaret and Clara are all buried in Bowers Cemetery, Montgomery Co., IN’ — which she elsewhere equates to the Peterson Cemetery;

  • e-mail Mary Davis to L. Ellingham [31-VII-2001]: ‘born 11 Jan 1915 at Xenia, OH; married 7 Apr 1834 in Greene Co., OH; died 22 Sep 1876 in Montgomery Co., IN’ & ‘to IN 2 years after [Eli & Martha] were married’;

  • "Peterson (Biedert) Family History" pp. 52-68 [LDS film#1036370] by Clyde S. Boots;

  • anonymous typed text [n.d.]: ‘Eli and Asa stayed in Indiana and established home 1/4 miles apart’; ‘Eli married and had Samuel, William, James F., Isaac, Jacob and a daughter who went to Illinois and never was heard from again; Eli’s wife died and he married Margaret A. Peairs, Sept. 17, 1867’ — since Isaac is unknown to every other record, while ‘Elvora’ appears in the 1860 census, this is perhaps the same person —

  • "Descendants of Hans Adam Stieffel" by Sherrin Winn Rooney [2001]: gives (1st) wife’s name as ‘Martha Lackey’ married in ‘1834’ who was born in ‘1816’ with 6 children named (approximately the first 6 given here);

  • 1860 Montgomery Co., IN census (Sugar Creek township) p. 91: age 44, born in Ohio; farmer; real estate value, $8,000; personal estate value, $2,000;

  • 1870 Montgomery Co., IN census (Sugar Creek township) p. 201 [ll. 18A-20A]: age 55, born OH; farmer; real estate valued $21,500; personal assets $500

  • e-mail, Mary Eliz. Boots (Davis) to L. Ellingham [30-VII-2001]: ‘[Clyde S. Boots] & I concluded, but without proof, that Martha [Lackey] may have been married to a Cunningham prior to marrying Eli’ otherwise noting Martha definitely to be a sister of James Lackey — a cemetery stone at the Peterson Cemetery (also called Bowers) in Montgomery Co., IN shows dates ‘1811-1866’ but those contrast with other research, with birthdate ‘31 Jan 816 at Rockbridge Co., VA’;

  • e-mail Mary Davis to L. Ellingham [31-VII-2001]: ‘Clyde had a ‘?’ behind her [Martha Lackey’s] birthdate’ & ‘born 30 Jan 1811 — as per Wallace Boots family Bible; where Clyde information was obtained I don’t know … it also depends on who wrote in the Bible’; ‘died 6 Feb 1866’;

  • "Peterson (Biedert) Family History" pp. 52-68 [LDS film#1036370] by Clyde S. Boots: grave ‘50y6d’ — Revolutionary War ancestry;

Peairs, Sept. 17, 1867’ — since Isaac is unknown to every other record, while ‘Elvora’ appears in the 1860 census, this is perhaps the same person;
