Solomon Trail's son William B. Trail
William B. Trail was born about 1810 in Simpson Co.,KY. He is the son of Solomon Trail. William's mother is most likely Nancy Duren as she and Solomon were married in Sumner Co., TN on 24 Oct 1809.
William married Mary A. _____ (b.ca 1819). They are found in the 1840 and 1850 censuses of Simpson Co., KY. By the time the 1860 census of Simpson Co., KY is taken, William B. and Mary A. have the following people living with them: Thomas Lynch, 21, farm laborer b. KY; James Simons, 26, a merchant peddler who was born in Germany; and Charles McGee, 19, a painter, born in Tenn.
William's household is found living next door to his sister or half-sister, Harriet Trail Justice. The Thomas Lynch listed in William's household is his nephew.(William B. and Mary did not have any children.) Thomas was the son of Jeremiah Lynch and Narcissa Trail Lynch of Simpson Co.,KY. Narcissa was the sister or half-sister of William B. Trail.
By 1880, William, Mary, and Thomas Lynch and his family have moved to Prarie Township in Jackson Co., MO. Thomas married Sarah "Sallie" ____ and they had two children living in their household in 1880: Walter, 8, b. KY, and Mary, 6, b. KY. While I have not found the families in the 1870 census, the birth states recorded for Thomas' children would indicate that the two families were still in KY in 1870.
In 1910, Thomas Lynch is still found in the census of Jackson Co., MO. I don't know when William B., Mary A., and Thomas and his family members died at this time, but they are buried in Lee's Summit Cemetery in Jackson Co., MO.
