For the benefit of your correspondent who signs himself "Pottenger," and who wishes to find the name of the wife of Joshua Ferguson, I send the following:
Elijah McWiliffe, the immigrant, came with his family to America from England with five sons -- Moses, Aaron, Robert, Charles, Nathaniel -- and three daughters -- Sarah, ---, --- (Book 4, Nelson County Records).
Nathaniel Wickcliffe, late of Prince William county, State of Virginia, died in 1790 intestate; land passed to his next of kin, to wit: John Kincheloe, Daniel Kincheloe, Cardius Kincheloe and Dorcas, his wife; Robert Kincheloe, William Wheatley and Elizabeth, his wife; Presley Smith and Nancy, his wife; Joshua Ferguson and Mary, his wife; Arrington Wickcliffe, Moses Wickcliffe, Robert Wickcliffe and Sarah, his wife; Henry Davis and Mary, his wife; who sell and convey it to Charles Wickcliffe, of Nelson county, Kentucky, and Robert Wickliffe, brother of said Nathaniel, who was heir at law of said Robert Wickcliffe, deceased; land granted to said Robert Wickcliffe bearing date June 1, 1782.
