1 By Gary Childs I have been researching my Childs family roots for about 2 and 1/2 years. A little over a year ago I discovered that my 3rd great-grandfather, who spent almost his entire life in Jennings county Indiana, changed his name from John S. Meek to John Childs in Since the discovery of this name change I have been researching the Meek name in said county. I have also discovered that the Meek research is quite a challenge. With this in mind I feel that the sharing of information is vital in this research, what with all of the conflicting data. So I would like to present here the results of my Jennings county research up to this date. By doing so I hope that other researchers will be inclined to share their research with me and with others. What I am presenting here is just the factual information that I have found nothing more, nothing less. From the deed research of the Jennings county Recorder s Office that I have done, I have found that the Meek clan settled along the Muscatatuck River, about six miles southwest of the town of Vernon in Jennings County Indiana in an area known as Sullivan Ford. The first evidence of the Meek presence in Jennings Co. comes from an article published in the Hoosier Journal of Ancestry about Baptist Ministers Thomas Hill and his son, Thomas Hill Jr. both long time ministers of Jennings county. This article describes their exploration trip to Indiana in The article reads: "They came from Pulaski County Kentucky and traveled as far north into Indiana as the Muscatatuck River ( Ed. Note: this area was part of Jennings County, Vernon Township when the county was established in 1817 ) near what was to become known as Sullivan Ford. Here they erected a camp and remained until all had selected lands--- Sullivan, Meek and others on the Muscatatuck and the Two Hills on Coffee Creek.". End article. ( Ed. Note: Thomas Hill and Thomas Jr. returned to Kentucky and then returned to Jennings county in March of 1817 to claim their land. The article doesn't specify whether the rest of the party stayed in Jennings County or returned to Kentucky. ) In 1816 a land patent recorded at the Jeffersonville Land Office was issued to Nathan Meek for the NE 1/4 of Section 26, T6N, R7E. in Jennings county This piece of property is situated along the Muscatatuck River about 6 miles SW of Vernon, and adjoins property owned by Noah Sullivan. This property is also 1/2 mile south of the NE 1/4 of Section 13, T6N, R7E which belonged to Thomas Hill. From this information I conclude that the "Meek" mentioned in the Thomas Hill article is in fact Nathan Meek. Another article about the history of the town of Hayden, Spencer Township Indiana, obtained from the Jennings County Library, states: "The first pioneers to occupy what we now know as Spencer township ( Ed. Note: Spencer township was established in 1833 from part of Vernon Township) originally settled on the Muscatatuck River southwest of the town of Vernon. Ten or twelve relatives of Basil Meek came to this location along the river having moved from Pulaski County, Kentucky. Other families, Jacob McCurry, James Keller, John Boner, Thomas Richey, Delancy Marvin, James Green, the Fitzgeralds, and later on Amasa Spencer came Page 1

2 to this area which became known as the Sullivan Community. It was later called Sullivan's Ford. End article. ( Ed. Note: Noah Sullivan started a Grist Mill here on the Muscatatuck River in 1821, also the town of Hayden was originally called Hardenburg and is located about 3 miles NW of the 1816 land patent issued to Nathan Meek. ). Another article from the history of the town of Hayden, Spencer Township reads: February 3, 1821 " We, a few Baptist, living in the State of Indiana, namely, Basil Meek, Peleg Baker, Noah Sullivan, Jesse Cox, Joseph Meek, William Baker, John B, Potter, Jane Potter, Nancy Baker(wife of Peleg), Eleanor Meek(wife of Basil), Sally Baker, Elizabeth Fitzgerald, being regularly dismissed from the Vernon Church and being sensible of the advantages of church privileges and gospel ordinances, do agree to give ourselves, by the will of God, to God, and to one another, according to the New Testament rules and regulations." They called their new church the Union Baptist Church and it was built on a hill just east of the Six Mile bridge.( The Six-Mile area is just north of Sullivans Ford ) These families also established the first public burial place in the township ( Vernon at this time ), The Six Mile Cemetery. The first person to be buried here was Nancy Baker, wife of Peleg around In 1833 these families wrote up and signed a petition to form a new township of this area. John Childs (Ed Note. late John S. Meek ) was appointed to deliver the petition to the Commissioner's Court at Vernon. The petition was presented on May 1, 1833 and the court granted the request on May 5th. The new township was named Spencer after their neighbor Colonel Amasa Spencer from Pulaski County, Ky. who was a prominent officer of the Revolutionary War. End of Article. In 1817 land patents were issued to: Nathan Meek, the SE 1/4 Section 26 T6N, R7E Samuel Meek, the SW 1/4 Section 24 T6N, R7E William Meek, the SW 1/4 Section 26 T6N, R7E Joseph Meek the NE 1/4 Section 24 T6N, R7E All of these parcels of land are adjoined to the 1816 Land Patent granted to Nathan Meek and are part of the land that makes up the area called Sullivan Ford mentioned in the articles above.. David Meek also has a land entry dated 1817, the property is located 2 1/2 miles east of the others. By the year 1817 there are five Meek land owners in the Sullivan Ford area. The earliest land record in this area that I have been able to find for Basil Meek is 1822, although he is listed in the 1820 census for Jennings County. In the years following there are numerous deeds recorded involving the Meek name in this same area. According to the information listed above, these Meek people migrated to Indiana from Pulaski county Kentucky. I would like to add further support to this fact. Thomas Hill Sr. was pastor of the White Oak Church in Pulaski county Ky. near the town of Somerset for 17 years. He lived in Pulaski county from 1797 till 1817.( source, the Hoosier Journal Of Ancestry, Jennings county Baptist Minister biographies ) He presided over the weddings of David Meek and Cassander Eadour Jan. 27, 1823 in Pulaski county and the wedding of Nathan Meek/Sally Roberts April 15, 1802 also in Pulaski county. (Source: Kentucky marriages records) Peleg Baker was also a Page 2

3 resident of Pulaski county Kentucky before moving to Jennings County. Peleg was in the 1800 and 1810 census for Pulaski County. Peleg was a Baptist Minister and a farmer and lived in Pulaski County from around 1794 till coming to Jennings county He is the father of my third great-grandmother Nancy Baker, wife of John Childs, late John S. Meek Nancy was born in Pulaski County around Peleg Baker and Basil Meek were Administrators of the will of one John Hudson in Pulaski County around John's widow, Nancy Harris Hudson became the wife of Peleg Baker on June 2, 1803 in Pulaski County. Basil Meek and Peleg Baker also inventoried the estate of a Mark Jackson in Pulaski county Ky. in (Source Jennings county Library genealogies, Vivian Creeden Baker Genealogy) Peleg's will signed June 25, 1822 and recorded September 19, 1822 in Jennings county Indiana names "my good friends and neighbors Basil Meek and Joseph Meek as Administrators." (Source: Jennings county will record book # 1, p. 24 ) There are many records that establish the time frame of the Meek clans arrival in Jennings County and there are numerous records for those who followed. Those records include census, land, probate, circuit court, marriage, and others. I would like to list various Meek information that I have found relating to these records.

May 8, 1843, the petition is heard by the court. David Meek owned 242 1/2 acres of land at the time of his death. Samuel being an heir of David wants his 1/12th share of this property if an equitable division can be made. If an equitable division cannot be made Samuel wants the court to order the sale of this property and the money from this sale be equally divided among the heirs. The court agrees and appoints a commission to partition and set off Samuel's 1/12th share of David's property. The commission is John Childs, James Dunlap, and James Tate.
