    • Notes for John Estes:

      Note - 1. John Estes served in the War of 1812 out of Tennessee, received pension from St. Louis, Missouri

      Note 2: Will of John Estes on file Warren Co., Ky., names his eleven children. See Book "C" PP 232-233, Warren Co., Kentucky

      Note 3: Lee E. Henderson, Poplar Bluff, Missouri and a researcher she used (George Farris) both felt John was the John Estes most often referred to as "Old" John.

      Note 4: There is a strong probability that "Old" John served in the Revolutionary War but no record has been found. See page 259 "Virginians in The Revolution, "Estis, John, Clark's Illinois Regt.

      Note 5: The will of John can also be found in The Kentucky Library & Museum, at Western Kentucky University MSS Dept. (MSS 54 series, Box 1 F4).

      Note 6: John was apparently also in Lincoln Co., then Logan Co., Ky. The whole family might have moved to Lincoln Co. about 1780.

      I have an Elizabeth Estes, d. and 10th of 11 kids of John Estes (b. 1745 Lunenburg Co., Virginia) and Elizabeth Chisum, but she was b. 1780 in Davidson Co., Tennessee and m. Joseph Jordan 19 Dec 1796 in Warren Co., Kentucky. I have her d. 1854 in Anderson Co., Texas. I have not personally verified this info.

      I also have an Elizabeth Estes b. 1798 Chester Co., South Carolina, d. of Sylvanus Estes and Nicy Carter.

      And, I have Elizabeth Estes, no b. date, m. John White, b. Augusta Co., Virginia. She was d. of John Estes ( b. 22 Jul 1753 in Caroline Co., VA) and ----- Woodfork.

      John Estes b. 1745 was a great grandson of Abraham Estes m. Barbara Brock through their son Thomas. John Estes b. 1753 was a grandson of Abraham Estes m. Barbara Brock through their son Moses. At least that's what I've found. No guarantees without iron-clad documentation.
