My name is Garnett Isbell Jr. from Richmond, Kentucky (Madison county).

I have been doing some work on the Isbell's here and I have got a

William Isbell born 1792 joined the 28th  Regiment out of Lexington, Ky. War 1812, filled for pension 13 March 1871 at the age of 79 (no WIFE mentioned)
Children :
Sarah born 1824 married Jarret Master Jul 1848 (Have consent letter from William),
Saminda born 1825 married William Davis 2 Jun 1843, William Isbell born 1830 (no info yet),
Abner born 1831 married Sophina Stotts 1852 Died in Andersonville 1 Dec 1864 Grave 12203 (Isbel) Civil war  POW. Wife got pension have records from National archives.
John Isbell born 1845, and
Henry born 1846 (no info yet).

Abner's children
Mary Ellen Isbell born 26 Oct 1853, married James C. Adams 1871,
William A (Archa) born 4 Jan 1857 married Mary E. Chandler 1883,
Irvin born 14 Feb 1859, died 25 Apr 1936, married 1883 to Sarah M. Cooley born 12 Oct 1858 died 4 Jan 1923.
Amby (William) born 1 Feb 1887 died 16 Jul 1967 married Nancy (Nannie)
Howard born 9 Feb 1892 died 13 Jul 1981,
Mary E Isbell born 1892 died 1956 Married Walter Masters born 1875 died 1939,
Charley Isbell Born 17 Sep 1885 died 3 Dec 1918.

My Grandfather is AMBY.  William, Abner, Irvin, Amby, Garnett Sr. and Garnett Jr. have always called Madison county home. Madison county 1830 census shows William Isbell had family. Still haven't been able to wife name or parents. I have two Isbell's in 1810 census Henry and Daniel shows numbers of family not much else. I have found a land grant (3230.0) for Daniel dated 06/29/1784 (authorized OK 4236) for 100 acres for 3 years service in Virginia State Line (A Revolutionary War Warrant) Here's the 64 dollar questions.

Do you known if either Henry , Daniel or my William is connected to the William Isbell who paid taxes in Madison county Kentucky 1792?

Is there anything you know about a Lincoln county Va. being change to Madison County KY?

Last but confusing  in the Madison county marriage I have a Polly Isbell marrying Samuel Walters, Sept 19 1811 and marring  William Turpin June 7 1797. Polly must have married twice, but I haven't been able to find out where she came from or and other family.  Any help would be appreciated.
