History For Rachel Dunn
Generation No. 1

1. BENAJAH2 DUNN (BENAJAH SR1) was born 1767 in Maryland, and died 1835 in Harrison County, Kentucky. He married (1) WIFE DUNN. He married (2) WIFE DUNN. He married (3) SARAH HARROD February 19, 1818 in unknown, daughter of LEVI HARROD and RACHEL MILLS. She was born 1774 in Bedford Co., Pennsylvania, and died 1830 in Harrison County, Kentucky.

Notes for SARAH HARROD:

Sarah HARROD was born about 1789 in Bedford Co., Pennsylvania. She died in 1835 in Harrison Co., Kentucky. Sarah Harrod is mentioned in her father's will, though an estrangement is indicated, as her father is uncertain as to whether she was living at that time, and makes certain that any of her children may not inherit from his estate if she be dead. It has been ascertained that she had removed to Kentucky about 1800, and settled in Harrison County where the heirs of her husband, Benajah Dunn, are found in Deed Book 15 pp. 421. Her husband, Benajah Dunn, probably the son of Benajah Dunn, Sr., who in 1774, sold cattle to Captain William Harrod for the Dunmore War, had died in Kentucky about 1835, his estate being settled there in January Term of Court in 1835. Sarah is not named among the heirs and it may be presumed she had died before her husband, but the names of the heirs clearly indicate the relationship. A Bible record has been sent by Mrs. Price Doyle of Murray, Kentucky.
