2 Oct 1833 Lexington Observer & Reporter (Extracted by Combs Researcher Debi Houser from Ky Obituaries 1787-1854 by C. G. Clift): Samuel R. Combs of Winchester killed Tuesday Oct 1, 1833

Notes: Samuel Richardson Combs, son of Benjamin & Sarah RICHARDSON Combs, Sr., married (1) Theodocia HOLDER; married (2) 30 Apr 1826, Clark, Margaret THOMPSON (daughter of Lawrence & Keziah HART Thompson). Additional data re Samuel Richardson Combs & his family, from Thomas THOMPSON and Ann FINNEY of Colonial Pennsylvania and North Carolina, by Jane Gray Buchanan, Pp. 172-73, "Margaret W. (Thompson) Combs (1796-1841):

"Capt. Combs was a member of a prominent pioneer family; he was one of four sons of Benjamin Combs, Revolutionary War captain and one of the founders of Winchester, Ky. Samuel R.'s brother Gen. Leslie Combs, a nationally known military and political figure of his day, was the driving force behind Henry CLAY'S presidential campaign of 1844 against James K. POLK. In a letter dated 26 Feb. 1907, Dr. Glenmore Combs discussed the early members of the family. "Capt. Samuel Combs perhaps had more native ability than any of the four sons although Gen. Leslie Combs was more widely known. Samuel Combs was a Captain in the War of 1812, and represented this county (Clark) several times in the State Legislature."

"After their marriage Margaret and Samuel R. Combs lived on his farm in Clark Co. on the Kentucky River. On 16 June 1810, the Kentucky Gazette took note of the fact that "Saml. R. Combs has erected a warehouse & ferry on the Ky. River on the rd. from Paris to Richmond." The Combs ferry was one of the busiest on the river. In addition, Samuel managed a large farming operation. He and Margaret had only one child, a son Werter (Worter).

"On 1 Oct. 1833 Samuel R. Combs was brutally murdered by a young member of the neighboring BUSH family. After his "throat had been cut from ear to ear, he called bystanders to come and see a brave man die. He lived only a few minutes, but long enough to dictate his will by holding his severed windpipe with his own hand."

"Commissioners appointed by the Clark Co. Court surveyed and divided the S. R. Combs home tract of 685 A and presented their report to the Oct. 1834 Court. Margaret Combs continued to live there with the younger Combs children. The 1840 census lists the following makeup of her family: 1M (10-15), 1M(15-20), 1M (20-30); 1F (40-50), 5 slaves. Her property adjoined that ofher sister and brother-in-law, Susan and Henry [THOMPSON] Lisle.

"Margaret did not have long to live, however. Her will dated 11 May 1841, was proved on the 30th of July following. Since information on Margaret is sparse, her will is quoted here in its entirety:

"In the name of God Amen I Margaret W. Combs of the County of Clark and State of Kentucky being Weak in body and taking in consideration the uncertainty of this mortal life - etc. etc. - First I will that after my decease my body be buried - etc. etc. Secondly I will and bequeath to my beloved son Worter Combs the residue of my property either real or personal except one bureau and bed which I will bequeath to my beloved niece Sarah T. MORTON now a single woman. All other property is hereby bequeathed to said Worter to have and to hold himself and his heirs forever and to be at his proper disposal after he arrives to lawful age except two beds and caster bedstead- etc. etc... - I will that he keep as long as he lives in rememberance of his Father and Mother. . . [nb: ommited by ed. are more household items to Worter]... Lastly as to all the rest, residue and remainder of my personal estate goods chattels of what kind and nature soever, I give and bequeath the same to beloved son Worter Combs to have and to hold or to dispose of as he choose. And I hereby appoint General Leslie Combs of Lexington [Fayette Co., KY] my sole executor this my last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills by me made. In Witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 11th day of May in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and forty one---/s/ Margaret W. (X) Combs. Signed and sealed, published and declared to be her last will and Testament in presence of us as Witnesses: Thomas C. GREEN, W. W. Combs, Shelby MORTON. (Rec., Clark Co. Court, July 1841; Clark Co., KY Will Bk. 10, pg.2)

"The inventory and appraisal of the estate of Margaret Combs were made 30 July 1841 and recorded by the Clark Co. Court the following November. Among the buyers of the long list of items sold were Richard L. THOMPSON, Susan LISLE, Allen THOMPSON, Tho. STEVENS, Wallis Combs, James RICHARD, John GREENS, W. P. CLARK, Sam. BUSH, Zachariah BUSH, Patrick STEVENS, Stephen BUSH. Jonathan BUSH served as administrator."

"Footnote 1: Children of Samuel Richardson Combs and his first wife, Theodosia HOLDER: Elliott Combs, Lafayette Combs, John Holder Combs, Aaron Burr Combs, Frances Maria Combs, Sarah Sophia Combs, Owen Combs, Mary Ann Combs, Elizabeth Combs, Samuel R. Combs, and Rufus K. Combs.

"Footnote 2: "In the 20th century Leslie Combs and his Spendthrift Farm near Lexington have become synonymous with thoroughbred racing in the U.S. and other Countries. This Leslie is great-grandson of the first Leslie Combs." (Provided by Simpson-Thompson Researcher Rhoda Fone)

Note: The above is further augmented by the Mary Salisbury Combs York Paper, as well as add'l documents. I t does appear, however, that there may be a bible record missing, and certainly the files of the above-noted Dr. Glenmore Combs. The following entries in the Clark Co., KY Deed Book Index all apparently relate to Samuel's heirs:

10 Dec 1838 "Col. Benjamine Combs of Clark County, a soldier in the American Revolution died December 10, 1838. Aged 89 yrs." (Kentucky Observer and Reporter December 12, 1838.)

From the History of Lexington, (Kentucky) by George Ranch pages 290 and 291:

"Benjamin Combs was born in Virginia and immigrated to Kentucky in 1750[?]-died in 1839 [should read 1838]. He was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. Proof of Captain Benjamin COMB'S service as a Revolutionary soldier is on his tombstone (near Winchester [Clark], Kentucky) and in a newspaper notice (at the time of his death) in the Combs family Bible in possession of Mrs. William E. HUDSON (nee Mary (Minnie) Combs Hudson) of Carrollton [Carroll Co.], Missouri.

"The graves of Capt. Benjamin Combs and his wife Sarah RICHARDSON are on the farm of Mr. Thad HAMPTON situated on the Colyville Pike-6 miles from Winchester, Kentucky."

The inscription on this stone reads:

"Capt. Benjamin Combs, a Revolutionary office and hunter of Kentucky, died December, 1838, aged 89 years."

"In memory of Sarah Richardson, late wife of Capt. Benjamin Combs. This stone was erected in gratitude of her motherly love in infancy and her particular attention the education of her youngest son, Leslie Combs. Died 1816, age 66 years."

Benjamin's tombstone read, "Capt. Benjamin Combs, a Revolutionary office and hunter of Kentucky, died December, 1838, aged 89 years." (Combs Researcher Breck Combs )

BC Notes: The recording of the tombstone by Dr. George F. Doyle of the Clark County Historical Society, Winchester, KY, made February 2, 1933, of which I have a copy, says that Benjamin "Died December, 1839 [sic] Aged 89 years." By then the stone would have been over 50 years old. I think the "8" had weathered to look like a "9". The inscription on the marker of Sarah Richardson Combs stated that she "Died 1816, Age 66 Years". I have visited the cemetery where Capt. Benjamin, and his wife, were buried. The cemetery is in very bad shape, Stone wall that surrounded the area has fallen inward, covering some of the stones. Also, trees have grown up inside. I could detect no names on the stones. The only thing I could read on one stone was: " Stranger Tread Light On This Spot." That was not the inscription that was on either the stone of Benjamin or his wife, Sarah RICHARDSON. The cemetery where Benjamin Combs is buried in located on the farm now owned by Mr. Lee Taylor, at 2926 Becknerville Road, 5 or 6 miles from Winchester, Clark Co., KY. It can be clearly seen from the road, and is located about 200 yards south of the Taylor home and 100 yards east of Becknerville Road. The cemetery is surrounded by a board fence, built in recent years. Formerly, it had a rock wall about 3 feet tall. It appears that animals knocked the wall inward, probably while reaching for the "greener grass" on the other side. I have an old photo showing the cemetery with the rock wall intact. The stones were erected for Benjamin and Sarah by their son, General Leslie Combs, probably to replace the original grave markers. It is my understanding that this was done many years after their deaths. Also note that the George Ranch source states Benjamin was 80 (rather than 89) and adds month of November to death year of Sarah. Clearly, Benjamin died in 1838 since the Kentucky Observer would not have published a notice of his death a year in advance.

From Roster and Soldiers, The Tennessee Society of DAR, 1894-1960:

Benjamin Combs born 1749 Stafford Co., Va died 10 Dec 1838 Winchester, Ky, married Sarah RICHARDSON ca 1775, born 25 Jul 1750 Frederick Co., Va died 1816 Clark Co., Ky. Benjamin came to Kentucky as early as 1775, planted corn and returned to Va to serve as Captain. He was present at the Surrender of Cornwalis at Yorktown and returned to Kentucky in 1782.

Children:
William
Fielding
Marcus
Samuel R. married Theodosia HOLDER
Elizabeth married a BOSTIC
Marian married a PRICE
John H. born 1791 Clark Co., KY
Leslie born 1793 married Margaret TROTTER

Note: The above listing of children and their marriages is also exactly as listed in The Combes Genealogy. According to above marriage records for Clark Co., KY, Mariam Combs married John R. PRICE; and Elizabeth married John CALDWELL; however, see also marriage of Elizabeth Bostic Combs to B. F. Combs.

The Fayette Co., KY will of Gen. Leslie Combs of Fayette Co., KY (son of Benjamin & Sarah RICHARDSON Combs) refers to the sale of their father's home place to Robert BROOKINGS, etc., apparently the following 110 acre tract, which was inherited by seven of the eight children (and of their heirs) of Benjamin & Sarah (son Marquis having died s.p.); i.e., William Richardson Combs, Fielding Combs, Samuel Richardson Combs; Elizabeth Combs (Bostick?); Mariam Combs Price; John H. Combs; and Leslie Combs.

Leslie apparently handled the transaction himself, collecting powers of attorney in 1839 from his sister, Marian Combs Price (29:305); Joseph Combs & wife (29:305); Joseph Combs & wife (29:307); Leslie C. BOSTICK [husband of Mary Combs, daughter of Samuel Richardson Combs] (29:308); Richard P. HOLDER [married Sophia Combs, daughter of ???] &c. (29:310); Benjamin Combs & wife (29:311); Fielding Combs & wife (29:311) and Elizabeth (Combs?) Bostick (29:312).

Eight heirs of Samuel Richardson Combs (died 1833) were apparently each granted 1/8 of 1/7 interest, and the Clark Co., KY Deed Index for 1839 (Deeds 29:68, 29:106 and 29:174) indicates that Glenmore, Samuel J. and Darius Combs deeded their interest in 100 acres to James W. COLE in 1839. James W. COLE and wife [who was she?] then deeded "3/8 of 1/7 interest" in 110 [sic] acres to Leslie Combs (29:303). In 1839, Fielding Combs & his wife, Mary (formerly Combs) deeded "1/8of 1/7 interest" in 110 acres to Leslie (29:303); Marquis C. and wife deed 1/8 of 1/7 in 110 acres to Leslie (29:304); and James P. Combs &c. deed 1/8 of 1/7 to Leslie (30:87). In 1840, William L. Combs &c. deeded "2/8 of 1/7 interest" to Leslie and Joseph Combs & wife &c.deeded the same (same deed(?) both 29:397). This appears to account for the full share due the heirs of Samuel Richardson Combs.

"April 2, 1842 Joseph Combs and wife, Susan, with three of their sons -- Fielding A. Combs, Jr. and wife, Mary, William E. Combs and wife Nancy H., and James H. Combs mortgaged 650 acres in Howards Upper Creek, slaves, livestock and household goods, as they were about $4,500 in debt to Spencer CALMES, Cuthbert EDWARDS, John W. CALMES, Robert C. CLARK, Alexander M. PRESTON, and others. The land was that on which they lived, about 250 acres bought by the three brothers from William EDWARDS and his children, and the rest that on which Joseph Combs had lived for many years. (PRESTON vs Combs' heirs, file 596).

"A petition for foreclosure filed July 8, 1842 shows that Joseph Combs died intestate in June 1842, leaving his widow, Susan, twelve children and three grandchildren, issue of a deceased daughter. A survey made "for the heirs of Joseph Combs dec'd for the benefit of the mortagees of said decedent and sons" on April 27, 1843, covering 664 acres, calls the tract part of a military survey but does not say whose. Joseph Combs is too young to have served in the Revolution though it is believed his father, Cuthbert Combs, was a soldier. The latter's land in Clark County was not a military grant, and he lost part of it by a prior military claim. Perhaps the land bought by the three sons of Joseph Combs from William EDWARDS and his children was in a military survey. Sarah W. EDWARDS, daughter of William, married Spencer CALMES, son of General Marquis CALMES, and two of her sons sold to Fielding A. Combs before 1841 Indian Old Fields land they inherited from their grandfather, Gen. CALMES, which was not a military grant.

"The thirteen children of Joseph Combs and his wife, Susannah CLARK, are listed as follows in the PRESTON suit cited above and in Clark Co. Deed Book 31:156:

Rodney W. Combs
Fielding A. Combs Jr.
William E. Combs
Joseph Combs, Jr.
James H. Combs
Francis Combs
Mary B. Combs
John H. Combs
Robert Combs
Elizabeth Combs
Nancy (Combs) Edwards
Maria (Combs) Caldwell
Sally (Combs) Ewing, dec'd"
