James Archibald Covington

GEDCOM Note

[010604.ged] I have his birth certificate I have is death certificate [010604.ged] I have his birth certificate The 1880 Scott cty Ky. census of the Lytle Fork dist. is interesting. It shows Arch living with his children. However, notice the names of his neighbors. John J. Covington and his family, Dudley Breeden and his family (Mary Covington), and a Ben Covington living with neihbors by the name of Lancaster. This is my Arch. However, calling him James Arch the son of Orssen is difficult to validate. I have one census (1850) that list Austin with a son named Arch living with him. I also have Arch's death cerificate that someone wrote Arthur over the original writing of the father. "Au" is still visible under the current writing. Also in one of the 18? tax records looks like Arthur, so I can see why someone thought that the name was Arthur. Also on Arch's death cerificate it list Elizabeth Carroll as his mother. Family in the know, and family bibles also list Elizabeth Carroll as Arch's mother. This is significant because I have a copy of the marriage certificate for Elizabeth to marry a Orsen Covington. The 1900 Census of Vevay In. list Arch as Arch "H". I am certain this is my Arch though. Blain and Lucy still lived with him. They were living in Vevay at this time period. The Vevay Reville on 2/10/1910 listed Arch's death. It said that he died in his home in Craig Township. It also said he had been ill for about two weeks. Also that he lived in Vevay for 8 - 10 years. I went to Vevay on 7-1-1999 and found the grave yard where Arch and Rebecca are buried. They had no marked gravestones. There were two sets of gravestones with no names. Two were completely un-readable and almost completely buried. The other two stones just said Mother/Father. In 1787 Fayette county Ky. included what is now Owens and Scott cty.
