History Note 1: "Concerning the marriage date of Levi Hale Sr., and Catherine Tucker, there is a mixup of dates due to faulty copying of the Early Marriage Records, of Mercer County, Kentucky, which appeared in the Register of Ky. Historical Society, Vol 20, No. 58, pages 13 and 16, published January 1922.
The marriage is listed twice with different dates as follows:
*Dec 3, 1794, Hale, Levi, and Catharine Tucker - Rice.
*Mar.
or May 22, 1796, Hale, Levi and Catharine Tucker - by Rice.
The "Rice"
who officiated at the marriage of Catharine (Tucker) and Levi Hale Sr. is undoubtedly
the pioneer Presbyterian preacher, Father David Rice, as he was called."
History Note 2: Also see the information found in a Bible belonging to Levi Hale Jr. found in the possession of his grand daughter Nora (Pearson) Trimble, living near Chrisney, Indiana in 1940. "This is a copy made from a Bible published in the year 1814, by Thomas J. Dillingham, of Booneville, Ind. The Bible was formerly owned by Levi Hale Jr. the son of Catherine (Tucker) and Levi Hale Sr. At the time Mr. Dillingham copied the records, it was in the possesion of Mrs. Nora (Pearson) Trimble, the grand-daughter of Levi Hale Jr. Mrs. Trimble lived near Chrisney, Indiana at the time. (Dated July 16, 1940) Mr. Dillingham said the the writing was dim from age, and that he may have made some errors in the transcription.
