Frances McGaughey1,2

F, b. September 5, 1789
FatherWilliam McGaughey1
MotherPrepare Clark1
     Frances McGaughey Frances was 40 years old when she married Zadock. She probably came to Putnam Co. from Kentucky in the mid 1820's. Court records in Owingsville, Bath Co., Kentucky shows that her father, William McGahey, sold 125 acres located on the east fork of Moffit Creek for 600 dollars silver. In June of 1818 a claim was executed allowing him pension for his services in the Revolution. Documents related to this claim indicated that the soldier was living in Putnam Co., Indiana in 1826. William McGahey's family Bible notes the date of her marriage to Zadock and the birth date of Andrew Conner, their oldest child. Andrew is B. J. Conner's grandfather. Frances was the oldest child of William and Prepare (Clark) McGaughey. William was a patriot soldier of the American Revolution. His name is on a bronze tablet in the Putnam Co. Courthouse, along with other Revolutionary War Veterans of the County. B. J. Conner was accepted in the Washington Chapter of Wichita, Kansas National Society of Sons of the American Revolution as a descendant of William McGahey, national member No. 147041. (Notes by B. J. Conner, page 95.)1 She was buried at Conner-Moss Cemetery (also known as Guilliam Farm Cemetery), near Fincastle, Franklin Township, Putnam Co., Indiana.2 She was born on September 5, 1789 at Kentucky.1,2 She married Zadock Conner, son of Daniel I. Conner Sr. and Mary Unknown, on March 10, 1829 at Russell Township, Putnam Co., Indiana.1 As of March 10, 1829,her married name was Conner.
