"The original LINDSAY family of the United States sprang from seven brothers, who came from England before the Revolution. Their names were William, Samuel, James, John, Robert, Joseph, and Alexander. William married Ellen THOMPSON, of Ireland, and settled in Pennsylvania. Their children were: James, Jane, Elizabeth, Samuel, William, Henry, and Joseph. Henry LINDSAY and his brother-in-law, Col. Robert PATTERSON, who married Elizabeth LINDSAY, were the joint owners of the land on which the city of Cincinnati now stands. They built the first cabin there, and dug a well one hundred and twenty-two feet deep, when they struck a large walnut stump, and being unable to remove it, and having become dissatisfied with the location, they abandoned it. They were both in the battle of Tippecanoe. Henry LINDSAY married Elizabeth CULBERTSON, and they had one son, William C., when Mrs. LINDSAY died, and he afterward married Margaret KINCAID, daughter of William KINCAID, of Dublin, Ireland, who had settled in Greenbriar county, Va. By his second wife he had: Ellen K., James, Nancy B., Preston, John K., Henry C., and Margaret J. William C. LINDSAY settled in St. Charles county in 1827, and died in 1861. He was married twice, first to Mary HAMILTON, and after her death, he married the widow LEWIS, whose maiden name was Maria BELL. Ellen K. died single in Kentucky. James died in Lincoln county, unmarried. Nancy married A1exander MCCONNELL, of Indiana. Preston studied medicine, and married Jane MAHAN, of Kentucky. John K. married Hannah BAILEY, of Lincoln county, where he now resides. Henry C. was also a physician. He settled in St. Charles county in 1835, and died three years after. Margaret J. married Dr. John SCOTT, of Howard county, Mo. William LINDSAY, Jr., was married in Pennsylvania to Sarah THOMPSON, and settled in Pike county, Mo. in 1829."
