Martha "Patsy" Jane Kinder

John Kinder was born circa 1780 in Pennsylvania, one of the older children of Peter and Dolly. John married Jane Melone in Shelby County, KY 11 November 1808.

Jane was a daughter of Drury and Mary Melone (also spelled Millone) of Shelby County. Drury and his family appeared on the first tax list of Shelby County in 1792 owning 231 acres on Brashears creek, so they were an early Kentucky family also.

After their marriage, John and Jane (in some records she was called Patsey) Kinder lived on 124 acres of land 'on the east bank of Bullskin creek'. They lived in Shelby County until about 1824/25 and at that time moved northwest to Montgomery County, Indiana on land John had bought in 1823. His brother, Jacob, also moved to Indiana and settled near John. By 1826, his parents sold their Kentucky farm and moved to Montgomery County as well.John and Jane/Patsey Kinder were parents of ten children per early census records, but since no probate has been found listing the names of heirs, only two children are known...William Kinder born 1815 and John Kinder Jr. born 1818. Both came to Miller County, MO in the late 1830s or early 40s.
