Individual Details

Please note: This is an unproved connection. I have never discovered exactly what John Anderson this was, nor what Louisa [or Lucy?] Poindexter.

This John????
Revolutionary Ancestors of the Indiana DAR:

The very unreliable Poindexter database calls this man John Poindexter Anderson and has him married to Elizabeth Rice. He was circa 1754 and died 15 Aug 1814, Nelson Co, KY. Children listed in the database are: Nancy, Jefferson, Robert, David, George, Betsy, John, Rice, and Agnes.
John said married 2nd to Elizabeth Clark, 16 Oct 1815 - but that's after the date of death given.
