We established via the 1880 census that the parents of Ava Mounce, b.Mar 1878, (m’d George GOOCH), was the dau of James Mounce, b.abt.1848, (m’d Sarah Catherine TARTER).
These look like James’s parents……
1850 Pulaski Co Ky census, Somerset Divn # 1, 25 Sept, p.64B, at 925, 925:
Riley MOUNCE, 30, m, – , farmer, $100, Ky.
Mary, 30, f, – , Ky.
George, 8, m, Ky.
Lavina, 5, f, Ky.
JAMES, 2, m, Ky ****
According to the best documented source I could find – and that should be taken as a caution – Riley Mounce is Greenup Riley Mounce, son of Michael Mounce, b.abt. 1785 NC, and Susannah J. __?_, b.abt.1779 (?) NC. This would square with the later census data, but Michael and Riley could both be the sons of Nicholas – see below. Nicholas and James Hamilton Mounce lived 3 and 4 houses, respectively, away from Riley on the 1850 Pulaski Co., Ky census. You’ll have to determine which version is correct.
Michael and Susannah’s other children are
William B., b.abt.1797 Va
Samuel Lemuel, b.abt. 1812 NC (“Ky” per 1850 census)
Nancy Jane, b. Jan 1812 Pulaski Co., Ky.
George Washington, b.abt. 1813 Ky.
John K., b.abt. 1813 Ky.
James Hamilton, b.abt. 1819 Ky
Michael, b.25 Dec 1825 Somerset, Pulaski Co., Ky.
Anyway, this line continues……..
Michael, b.1785, son of Nicholas Mounce, b.abt. 1770 NC (per 1850 Pulaski Co Ky census) and Sophie _?_, b.1790 NC (1850 Pulaski Co Ky census).
Nicholas, b.abt 1770 NC, son of Matthias Mounce, b.abt. 1770 (?) Philadelphia, Pa, d. Garrard Co., Ky, m’d 1st: Unknown. M’d 2nd: Mary Smith. There is a problem with dates in this line at this time, leading me to think someone “shoehorned” some children in here that don’t necessarily belong and they may even be Nicholas’s siblings and not his children, the dates are that close. These children were born between 1752 Albian Va, 1760s in Lunenburg & Augusta Co., Va, Lincoln & Mercer Co Va (later Ky), and Garrard Co., Ky.
Matthias Mounce, son of John Frederick Mounce b.abt. 1730, m’d Susanna Margaret ABEL.
