    Notes 
    • Aaron McKenzie

      Aaron McKenzie was born in Maryland in 1792. He married Hannah Johnson on 10 MAR 1819 and together they had (at least) five children (and probably seven) (1):

      1.Daniel McKenzie
      Born 1817
      Married Sarah (Sallie) Spencer 27 MAR 1847 in Allegany County
      Had children Hannah, Henry, John Franklin, Annette, George and Newton
      Died 23 SEPT 1896 in Cresaptown, Maryland

      2.Silas (Cyrus) Johnson McKenzie
      Born 13 Mar 1830
      Married Sarah Elizabeth Spencer in 1859

      3.Aaron William McKenzie
      Born 16 Dec 1830
      Married Margaret Ann Martin
      Had children Hannah, George, Percy, Lavina, Taylor, James, Charles Walter and John Burr

      4.John Ephriam McKenzie
      Born 1835
      Married Mary Alice Martin
      Had children Aaron B., Charles Winfield, John W. and Horace Russell

      5.Samuel McKenzie

      Aron McKinsey (actual spelling) first appears in the 1820 census. (3) He is listed as the head of household. His age is given as being between twenty-six and forty-five. His wife is also listed in the same age category. There was one female child in the household, whose age is listed as being less than ten years old.

      Aaron McKinsey appears next in the 1830 census. (4) At that time the records reflect that he had two male children under the age of five living at home, one male between the age of five and ten, one female between the age of five and ten and another female between the age of ten and fifteen.

      The 1840 census (5) also shows Aaron McKinsey living in Election District 6 in Allegany County. There was one male under the age of five in his household, two males between the age of five and ten, one male between the age of fifteen and twenty, one female between fifteen and twenty and another female between twenty and thirty.

      Aaron McKenzie was listed in the 1850 Census for Allegany County. (6) He was fifty-eight at the time his wife, Hannah, was fifty-seven years old. He was working as a laborer. Cyrus (age 21), Aaron (age 20) and John E. (age 18) were still living at home. Susan Baird, age seventeen, and listed as a teacher was living with them along with Emily _______, age 40 and a nineteen year old male. (7)

      By the time the 1860 census was taken (8) Aaron and his wife, Hannah and their son, Aaron W. age twenty-four had moved to Hampshire, Virginia (now West Virginia). Aaron was sixty-six years old (which is off by two years if you compare it with the 1850 census and would have meant that he was born in 1794) and was working as a carpenter. Hannah was fifty-six years old (which also does not coincide with the 1850 census, since she was listed as being fifty-seven on that document). Aaron, Hannah and Aaron W. (9) were all born in the State of Maryland.

      The 1860 census also provides us with information on Cyrus (Silas) McKenzie, who was two of Aaron’s sons. (10) He was living close by to his parents, was thirty years old and was living with Sarah E., age seventeen. The census reflects that they had been married in the past year. Silas (as it was listed in this census) was born in the State of Maryland.

      Interestingly, the author was experimenting one night with the Ancestry.com census search program when he discovered Aaron McKenzie (b. 1792) and his wife Hannah McKenzie living in Jefferson, Noble County, Ohio in 1870. (11). They were listed as being 78 and 77, respectively. They were residing with John Kyles, age 56, his wife, Mary E., age 50, and their seven children. When you compare the 1860 census with the one from 1870, Aaron and Hannah McKenzie are residing with the Kyles in the Western District, Hampshire County, Virginia. The 1880 Jefferson, Noble County, Ohio census reflects that Mary E. Kyles was now widowed and living with her three youngest children. Aaron and Hannah McKenzie are no longer living in the household, which suggests perhaps that they died in the preceding ten years.

      Endnotes


      1. The census records in 1820, 1830 and 1840 reflect that Aaron and Hannah had two daughters, assuming that the young females actually living in their household were daughters and not simply female relatives who had come to live with them.

      2. In another portion of his notes, Col. MacKenzie states as follows: “J.F.G. (referring to J.F. Grant) said Daniel IV had as children Henry, Frank, George J. (Boss Geo.), Newton, Hannah, Isabel (Belle) and Louise.”

      3. 1820 Federal Census, LDS film number 0,193,702, Maryland, Allegany County, Election District 6, page 39 and 40.

      4. 1830 Federal Census, LDS film number 0,013,176, Maryland, Allegany County, page 40.

      5. 1840 Federal Census, LDS film number 0,013,182, Maryland, Allegany County, Election District 6.

      6. 1850 Federal Census, LDS film number 013, 194, Maryland, Allegany County, Election District 6, page 130 of the book.

      7. The names are not readable on the microfilm because it appears that someone placed some scotch tape on the record at some time causing the information to be illegible.

      8. 1860 Federal Census, LDS film number 805, 350, Virginia, Hampshire County, New Creek Station, Western District, page 296 and 297 of the book.

      9. Aaron W. McKenzie appears in the 1900 Census at Maryland, Allegany County, Rawlings Election District No. 7, Supervisor District 4, Enumeration District No. 102. If you do a search on Ancestry.com in the 1900 Federal Census for “Saras” McKenzie, the reference to Aaron and his wife, Margaret, will pop up. The transcriber simply misread the name.

      10. 1860 Federal Census, LDS film number 805, 350, Virginia, Hampshire County, New Creek Station, Western District, page 298 of the book.

      11. 1870 Census, Ohio, Noble County, Jefferson Township, page 22, lines 17 and 18, July 6, 1870.

    Equity Case 292 Allegany County, Maryland
    Michael A. Mckenzie attempted to locate Equity Case 292, Allegany County, Maryland records in 1999. He received this response from the Maryland State Archives. Per the index at the Allegany County, Maryland Courthouse, the case was filed on March 30, 1837 styled Moses McKenzie and Aaron McKenzie vs. William McKenzie, Richard McKenzie, Daniel McKenzie and Others.

    Because the paperwork for Equity Case 292 could not be located, the author, Michael A. Mckenzie, thought it best to append the docket sheet to the MOEM database.
