George Madison McQueary is the son of William McQueary and Mary (Polly) Parkey.Mary was his first wife. They were married in Pulaski Cty, KY on August 3, 1829.George was the youngest son of this first marriage.William was the son of William McQueary (born 1765 in VA) and Nancy Shepherd (1770 -NC). Both are buried at the Flat Lick Cemetery (Baptist Church near Somerset, KY) and the old headstones have been replaced with very large and readable ones (I was there in May/2000). This William was the son of John McQueary of Lynchburg, VA who probably came to America after the Battle of Culloden.The six sons of William and Mary ended up in Colorado - most at Hot Sulphur Springs where the original McQueary Stage stop still stands in the middle of town - it is still a hotel and restaurant.Museum here is full of McQueary's and I got a reprint of an old picture of Humphrey McQueary from the museum (George's older brother).
