Town of Greenburgh, Green County, Kentucky
Green County was formed in 1792 becoming effective on the 1st day of January 1793 from parts of Lincoln and Nelson Counties. Green County was named in honor of General Nathaniel Greene, a Revolutionary War hero.
The town of Greensburg was established and incorporated on the 4th day of December 1794, and became the county seat of Green County.
An act to establish a town on the lands of Walter Beal, "in the County of Green" was presented to the general assembly. One hundred acres of land had been "laid off into convenient lots and streets by the said Beal," with a public square for a courthouse.
The one hundred acres were vested in a group of trustees for the purpose of forming a town. The trustees sold the lots to prospective buyers. The purchasers of the lots had three years to build a house, at least 16 square feet, with a brick or stone chimney, and a shingled roof. If they did not do so, the lot would be forfeited and resold by the trustees.
In the first Minute Book the town is recorded as the City of Greensburgh. At that time, "City" was a strange title for the little village of Greensburgh (this spelling continued to be used until about 1818, when the “H” was dropped and it became Greenburg).
In this 1810 Census there are three Marcum listed, Thomas Markum, Abner Marcum and John Marcum.

Hello. I am researching my husband's family (Wages) and came across your site. I am wondering if you have any information on William James Wages b 12-1825 in South Carolina, d 28 NOVEMBER 1862, Grenada, MS; he married Elizabeth Pannell, daughter of Richard Walter and Elizabeth Grubbs. I have come across SO many different opinions my head is spinning!!! I have seen William Benjamin Wages (b 1773, NC, d 1851, married Mary Margaret Elizabeth Green), COULD be his father, but have not found any proof. Any help would be appreciated! You can email me @ sahavens1@gmail.com.
