Susan B. Poindexter

(1829 - )

A Susan is listed in the household with John and Elizabeth in 1850, but she was a daughter of his first wife, Susan Breathitt.
1850 Census: Todd Co, KY, Household 552
John Poindexter, 55, b. KY. Elizabeth 37, b. KY
Susan 21. Marion W. 9 [female]. Marinda B. age 7.

Susan married Henry Bibb and had three children.

In 1850, Todd Co, Henry, not yet married to Susan Poindexter, appeared to be living in the same household as his parents and several siblings.

Branch Bibb, age 68, b. VA. Lucy, age 62, b. VA
Henry, age 40, lawyer, b. VA
Susan, age 30, b. VA
Mary, 23, b. VA
John, 24, b. VA
George, 22, b. VA
Mary, age 11, and George age 8, b. Missouri - I think they are possibly children of Henry's by a first wife. They are of an age to be grandchildren to Branch and Lucy.

1860, Todd Co, Hh 1014
H. W. Bibb, age 50, male, b. VA
S. R., age 29, female, b. KY - I believe this is Susan B. Poindexter
M. E. Bibb, age 20, female, b. MO and G. M. age 17, male, b. MO - would seem to be the two children in the 1850 household and they are too old to be the children of Susan
B. B., age 6. J. T., age 3, both males and possibly children of Susan
M. M., age 35, female, and J. S., age 38, male, both born in KY and could be the Mary age 23 and John age 24, listed in 1850. Sister and brother of Henry.

1870 Census, Todd Co KY, Allensville.
Henry W. Bibb, age 61, b. VA. Susan B. age 40, b. KY
John age 10, Lucy age 7. [could John be the J. T., age 3 in 1860]
Hh 74 is James Bibb, age 63, b. KY with Louisa F., age 50, b. VA
Hh 77 is J. S. Bibb, 49, and Susan E., age 59, born Virginia - probable siblings both found in the household of Branch Bibb in 1850.

Here are the siblings in 1880:
1880 Census, Todd Co KY, Allensville
Hh 53: John Bibb, age 53, lawyer, b. VA, parents b. VA.
Susan, age 70, sister, b. VA, parents b. VA

Henry seems to be in Logan Co KY, Hardison in 1880
Hh 78: Henry W., age 71, b. VA as were his parents
Susan R., age 49, wife, b. KY as were her parents
Bernoullie B., age 27, son, b. KY, parents b. VA [probably B. B., age 6, in 1870]
Nancy M., age 17, dau. [was she listed as Lucy in 1870? she's the right age]
Maggie, age 25, dau-in-law, b. KY, parents b. Tenn.

There is a marriage for Burnoli - B. R. Bibb married Maggie J. Leigh, 24 Dec 1879, in Muhlenberg, KY.

The Logan Co Cemetery book has a grave listed in Kennerley's Chapel Cemetery:
H. W. Bibb. Born 8 May 1809, died 26 Aug 1893. This could be Henry. He is the only Bibb listed as buried in this cemetery.
