"At the time he married his third wife, April 8, 1816 in White County IL"
To show the power of the Internet, I found that this story has circulated and been repeated over and over again, that John Storms of Grayson Co Kentucky married a 3rd wife named Patsy Poole in White Co Illinois. I felt I needed to know if this story was true. After ordering and reading numerous microfilms I can finally put this theory to rest. Just a word of caution -- don't believe everything you read on the Internet
#1. I find in the White Co Index to Probate that Patsy Stum (wife of John Stum)is the only child of Thomas and Fanny Poole dated (Aug 1829)
#2. In Phillipstown Old Cemetery Phillips Twp White Co Illinois is buried John Stum died 18 Feb 1839 Age 56 and Martha Stum his wife died 6 Nov 1834 age 31. As you know Patsy is a nickname for Martha--- so this must be the Patsy Poole that so many think my John Storms married in 1816.
#3 The link to White Co Illinois may be thru my John Storms son Daniel who lived there.
#4 Hopefully this will clear up this misinformation that has been circulated and recirculated for years. A little actual research solved this puzzle.
#5 I am looking for actual proof that Margaret Storms Pryor Hart is the daughter of John Storms and Hannah Collard of Grayson Co KY. I sure would appreciate some clues about that. The above was posted by me on the Storms Rootsweb Message Board on 19 Dec 2010.
