Narrative

ABAGAIL STURGILL and her husband MATHIAS KELLEY made their first home in Letcher Co KY, where their first six children were born. About 1840 they moved to Sullivan Co, MO (probably with her uncle Joel's family) When Joel's family and other related families moved on to Oregon in 1865, Joel returned to Scott Co, VA, Abigail and her family probably returned with him. Mathias then settled in Lee Co, VA.
