• Notes

  Nothing more is known about Polly Dials until she is shown on her son Absalom's marriage record in 1827 in Pike County, Kentucky. From Marriage Records of Pike County, Kentucky 1822-1865 compiled by John Jay Johnson: ABSALOM DIALS married Nancy Maynard Oct. 17, 1827. Dau. of William; SON OF POLLY. ---------------------------------- From the 1850 Pike Co., KY census, annotated by Billie Hill Mullins: #745 DYLES (Dials, Diles, Dial) Absolom, 40, b. VA (son of POLLY DIALS) Nancy, 40, dau. Wm. Maynard married 10-17-1827 Pike Co. Tabitha, 18, b. VA Elioney (Elvirah), 16, m. James W. s. Adam Setser 6-15-54 Pike Co. Mary, 14 Moses, 12 m. Nancy Welch 8-17-56 Pike Co. Barnabus, 10 Elizabeth, 8 m. Thomas Blackburn 6-17-56 Pike Co. Nancy, 4 Edward, 2 #615 DYLES John, 35, b. VA s. POLLY DIALS m2 Rebecca dau Wm & Susannah May 5-7-57 Pike Co. Sarah, 30 b. VA dau Moses & Elizabeth Maynard Ball m. 10-10-33 Pike Co. George, 15 m. Sarah dau Wm & Susannah May 3-6-54 Pike Co. James P., 13 b. VA m. Mary Ann Smith 2-18-60 Pike Co. Moses, 9 b. VA Elizabeth, 7 Martha, 5 Andrew, 3 Mary, 55 mother Since John Dials' mother-in-law's name was Elizabeth, the Mary on the last line is probably Polly Dials. Polly was a popular nickname for Mary. The age is wrong by about 9 years, but that doesn't mean much. It's not uncommon to find inaccurate information on the early censuses.
