William Lester was born on August 6, 1800 in Tennessee and is my fifth great grandfather on my mothers side. He settled in Wayne County, Kentucky, and in 1827 married Mary Bertram, daughter of William Bertram and Nancy Stinson.
William and Mary had a total of 16 children! All were born in Wayne County, Kentucky. They had 8 girls and 8 boys: Malinda, Andrew Jackson, Louisa, Lucinda, William Emerson, Edward, George, Francis Marion, Jacob, Sarah, James, Nancy, Barbara, Catherine, Mary, and Henry Lester. I descend from there firstborn, Malinda, who married Daniel Littrell.
William died on May 27, 1884 in Wayne County, Kentucky, and is buried with his wife and MANY descendants in Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Sunnybrook.
