    For what it's worth, Samuel D. Perry's "South Fork Country" states onpage 107
    "Few families in the region had as close contact with the Cherokee asdid that
    of John Mounce (Mounts). John is believed to have been a brother ofSusannah
    Mabel Mounts who moved to Wayne County, Kentucky from Gararrd County,with her
    husband Richard Harve Slavey, shortly after Wayne County was createdin
    1800..."

    There's no source for this assertion. The story that follows isattributed to
    Obie Coffey, "one of the last remaining 'shade tree hstorians' whocould bridge
    Cherokee history with white. Of Cherokee descent himself, he usuallygot it
    right."

    John married Rachel Wade on 26 Jan 1781 in Madison, Kentucky, United States. Rachel (daughter of Dawson Wade and Rachel Burnside) was born in 1769; died before 1839 in Wayne, Kentucky, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    That's a very good question. Rachel Wade, sister of Joseph, marriedJohn
    MOUNCE. I assume this would have been John Mounce JR. John & RachelMounce
    took up residence in Wayne County. I also note that Dawson Wade wasin
    Wayne in 1810 and received a 200 acre grant. I think this must havebeen
    Dawson JR, as Dawson SR died in Montgomery Co KY. I also note thatboth
    Dawson WADE (SR & JR) and Richard WADE SR were in Madison Countybefore 1800
    This may mean that the Mounce family was also there, but I have not
    checked into it.

    Richard WADE SR was married to Judith HANCOCK, and they also came toWayne
    County. I have not made a connection, but believe Judith was relatedto
    Benjamin Hancock, who came to Wayne from Guilford Co, NC, and to JohnD.
    Hancock, whose son Major Hancock came to Wayne from Patrick Co VA.

    All this also ties into my husband's ancestor Samuel Clark b. 1775,who also
    now appears to have come to Wayne County from Madison County. He is
    enumerated on the Madison County tax list with his father Thomas Clarkin
    1796 In Wayne County in 1829 Samuel Clark married Hannah James, thewidow
    of Elisha WADE, whom she had married in Madison County in 1792.Elisha WADE
    was born 1773 to Richard WADE SR and Judith HANCOCK in Goochland CoVA.

    I don't know about Dawson WADE SR or John MOUNCE SR, but I do knowthat
    Richard WADE SR and Judith HANCOCK's brothers were stationed at Ft.Boone in
    Madison County. It may be that John Mounce SR had a brother whofought and
    died during the war or as a result of an Indian raid. Joseph Wade wasnot
    old enough to have fought in the Revolutionary War, but he appears tobe of
    the generation of those who were children of Revolutionary War vets.That
    would place Peggy (and, yes, Peggy is a nickname for Margaret) Mouncein the
    same generation with Dawson JR, John Mounce JR and Rachel Wade.Assuming
    she was 17 when she was married in 1793, that would give an est. dobof 1776
    She needed the consent of her parent/guardian to marry, which meansshe
    was not yet 21 yrs of age. I don't know how old Joseph was, but I doknow
    that his sister Rachel Wade Mounce had a daughter born in 1792, givingan
    est. year of birth of 1772. Joseph & Peggy could have been bornanywhere in
    that time frame.

    As an addendum to the below message, June Bork informs me that shebelieves
    the age of majority for brides was 18; for grooms, 21. That being thecase,
    Peggy Mounce would have been no older than 17 when she married JosephWade
    in 1793.
