Why did the Clift's leave Washington KY?

lizram — 9 Aug 2003 4:15:39 GMT

I can find my GG Grandfather Alfred Clift in the Mason Co census through 1860. In 1880 he is in Cincinnati OH living with his daughter. In searching (page by page) the Mason Co. census for 1870, I cannot find any Clifts in the section for Washington or Maysville. Does anyone know what happened to the Clifts? They appeared to be farmers and landowners so did they lose their land during the civil war? Or does anyone know where Alfred and Louisa J. Clift are in the 1870 census? Thanks.

If anyone has descendants of William and Mary I would greatly appreciate more information.

Think I am related to Horatio Clift but Uncle's notes are misleading.Also Benton's son Verner married Blanche Boots. It has always been said she was part Indian. One of my goals is to prove or disprove this family story. Her parents were William Edward Boots born 1856 Onionta, Kentucky and Elizabeth Gilham born 1857 Onionta, Kentucky.

Clift family from Virginia

@@l.ramirez@mindspring.com — 22 Oct 2005 5:04:20 GMT

I am looking for my Clift ancestors who came from Virginia. I know that my GGGG Grandfather Benjamin Clift came to Kentucky from Virginia and obtained land from a land bounty issued to William Clift from Virginia (Revolutionary War). I suspect that Benjamin was a brother of William. I have found an early record of a young William Clift who was in Virginia court documents in the late 1600's swearing that he was 14 years of age and was bound to service for 7 years to a Mr. King and that he (Clift) had just lately arrived in the US. My Clifts appear to have spent years in the areas of Caroline County and King George Counties of Virgina, which would not be too far away from where this young man arrived. Possibly he was the first of this Clift line in Virginia. I have no more information on this young man, who he married or who his children were. If any one has information to share on any of this line, I would be grateful.

Lewis Clift of Trowbridge, Kent born c.1867

frogknot57 — 6 Jan 2003 10:25:34 GMT

I'm hoping for more information on this man.

I think I have managed to work the following out, (without full access to the 1901 census):

In the 1881 census he is 14 and living with his parents Alfred and Mary at 5 Taylors Court, Trowbridge, Wilts.

In 1901 he is living with his wife Ann in Ystradyfogwg, Glamorgan, Wales. Also I believe with them is my mother's father, Thomas Smith, who was 13 at the time.

There is some uncertainty of the events that led Thomas to be living with the Clifts, but they were known to his children as grandma and grandpa Clift.

Thomas was born in Wattstown, Glamorgan - I don't know to whom - he married Gertrude Lloyd (b.c1901). He later joined the merchant navy and died in the early 1930s.

Any information much appreciated.

Daniel Boone Clift/Annie Rigsby line

Darren Clift — 15 Oct 2001 2:54:43 GMT

I am attempting to trace back my branches of the family tree and could use whatever help anyone can give. My grandfather is Sampson Clift, from Saline County, Arkansas (1912-1979). He was married to Margaret Jane Bagley also of Saline County, (1915-1984). I was saw a marriage certificate for Sampson's parents and I remember that they were Daniel Boone Clift and Annie Rigsby. I know that in the family tree there is another Daniel Boone Clift, but he was born earlier. I believe that Daniel's parents were George Clift and Nancy Thompson. I have no dates for birth/marriage/or death for any of these names. I was trying on a long shot that in someone elses search than ran across some overlapping names. Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Looking for information on Dorinda (Rennie) Parsons Clift. She and Henry G. were married December 1879, Jefferson Co. AL. Rennie probably died between 1880-1890. Would like to know if she is buried in Oak Hill Cemetery, Birmingham, along with other members of Clift family. It is also reported they had two children, both of whom died as infants. Family says these children were buried in Oak Hill, but Sexton's records do not show this.

Henry's parents were George W. and Martha E. (Bullock) Clift, both buried in Oak Hill Cemetery, Birmingham.
