      Description: I don't think that Nathaniel died in Fayette Co, Ill. In a summary of Knox Co, Oh. Common PleasCourt Minutes, 1829 his probate was listed on p. 130. When i wrote for a copy of his estate proceedings, the clerk of probate court wrote that the book had disappeared from her office. The summary said that he was dead by 8 Sept 1829 when his brother Moses applied to be the administrator and Gabriel, the appraiser.

      Ed. Note: In view of the information from Bobbie McKenzie, above, the date for daughter, Sarah's birth may be incorrect.

      The following is from John Brake:

      Mike:

      I need to make a correction to my last email. Per the St. Luke's church records, Sarah McKenzie (dtr of Nathaniel McKenzie & Maria Dial) was BORN on 11 Aug 1832, but not baptized until 11 Mar 1833. The records say it was after Nathaniel's death. So he must have died sometime in 1832/1833.

      But, review the information that the author received from Bob McKenzie in July, 2016:

      With no wish to "muddy" anyone's mind concerning Gabriel D. McKenzie's brother Nathaniel, I'm offering the following material to clarify some question on his widow's (Mary Dial McKenzie) child, Sarah Ann McKenzie, also known as Sarah Ann Lybarger or Maranda Lybarger. Based on what other researchers have offered, we likewise assume that Nahaniel was the son of Gabriel McKenzie and Ann Maddox (Mattox).

      From John H. Doty's 1977 compilation Pioneer Families of Colonial America, p. 208, Doty states the following:

      "Nathan McKinsey died in Pleasant Twp., Knox Co., Ohio on or about 9-3-1829. Dr Wm L. Brooks made his last visit on 8-26-1829. Nathan had brothers Samuel, Moses, Aaron, Gabriel, & a sister Elizabeth (all italics mine) who m John S. Logue an older brother of James Logue - 3l7. Nathan signed a note to Baptist Mattingly for $5.31 on 8-11-1829. Moses McKinsey paid $6.00 on 10-5-1829 for Nathan's coffin."

      On page 209 of the same compilation, Doty writes:

      "See Probate Court Records of Knox Co., Ohio for estate settlement of Nathan McKinzie. Box 42, 697--Isaac Dial was appointed guardian of Rachel McKinzie, orphan of Nathan McKinzie on 10-17-1829. George Dial Jr & Peter Sheffer were appointed bondmen. Maria Dial McKenzie was listed as mother. See Vol 9, p 188--a Bill of sale & a list of property used by widow was made on 10-2-1829, Bk k, p 87 & Bk 38, p 66 or # 38-66. Inventory was filed on 3-12-1836, Bk B, p 375. Estate records--Bk 1, p 368, 9-8-1829 appointed Mary McKensey & Moses McKinsey administrators of the estate of Nathan McKensey. Isaac Dial & Gabriel McKinsey were appraised for bail."

      "Nathan McKenzie & Mary Dial had at least one child, maybe two--see 1840 census. Rachel McKensey, b 3-22-1828 in Knox Co., Ohio & d 11-20-1906 St. Elmo, Ill cemetery."

      "Marie (Mary) Dial McKenzie next man was Andrew Lybarger, son of Old George Lybarger (d1830). From this union one child was born--Sarah Ann (Maranda) Lyrager was born 10-20-1832 in Knox Co., Ohio & d in Morris Twp., Sumner Co., Kan on 2-11-1896. She was baptised on 3-11-1833 at St. Luke's Catholic church, Danville, Ohio as Sarah Ann McKinsey."

      "Children of James Logue and Marie (Mary) Dial McKenzie, Lybarger."

      I've reproduced Doty's material exactly as it is in his compilation except for the bold print emphasizing Gabriel D. McKenzie's brothers and sister. Hopefully this will help other researchers baffled by the matter of a second daughter born to Nathaniel and Mary (Dial) McKenzie after his demise in 1829. But I must caution that I have not verified everything Doty presents.
