The Mankspiel/Mansfield And Related Families traces the family of Elijah Mansfield who was born in 1775 and died in about 1871 at the age of 96 in Logan County, Kentucky. His ancestorage is then listed and the descendants of Jacob Mankspiel is then given. The wife of Elijah Mansfield was Susannah Pierce. Her entire family was killed in an Indian raid when she was a small girl. She was then taken in and raised by the family of General Benjamin Logan. Elijah Mansfield was closely associated with General Logan. He of course met Susannah and were married. General Logan gave his consent for her to marry in 1795. This genealogy will also list the family of General Logan and thus show how important the Logans were to the Mansfield family. The ancestors of Virginia Wade Spillman are also listed in this genealogy of the Mansfield family.

"Our Bishop Family" lists the descendants of John B. Bishop and Elizabeth Turner Bishop of Barren County, Kentucky. He was born in 1808 in South Carolina and died in 1894. Elizabeth Turner Bishop was born in 1810 in Virginia and died in 1887. John B. Bishop bought a 100 acre farm in Barren County in 1848. It was located at J Martin Road and Flowers Road. I am descended through John B. Bishop's son James Bristow Bishop. Therefore, a large portion of this genealogy will be through his line.
