Isaac Ferguson

• Many public trees say that he is the Isaac who died 1815 in New Richmond, Clermont Co., OH.

Some people get around this problem by saying his father is Thomas James Ferguson. [ History of Clermont County Ohio by J.L. Rockey and R.J. Bancroft, 1880 ]

James Ferguson

• Thought by many to be James Ferguson who married Sarah Ponder 1794 in Philadelphia. Problem is his parents are named in the marriage record as George and Margaret Ferguson in Ireland. [ Marriage Records of Gloria Dei Church "Old Swedes'," Philadelphia: Compiled ... By Park M'Farland, 1879 ]
• Could be James Ferguson b. Apr 5 1759, Nottingham, PA and served Tryon County Regiment, NC during Revolutionary War.

• Thought by many to be the Thomas who died in 1836 in Hobbieville, Greene County, Indiana. Problem is he usually referred to as Thomas Ferguson Jr. and by tradition his father Thomas Ferguson Sr. is said to have been given a land grant by the Crown, was a Justice of the Peace, a surveyor in the French and Indian War and a soldier in the Revolutionary War who died at the Battle of Kings Mountain on October 7, 1780.
