  • SOME DESCENDANTS MORDECAI Mckinney
    SOME DESCENDANTS of MORDECAI McKINNEY Edited by Gerald McKinney Petty and Eulah McKinney Ridgway 19 5 3 This edition consists of 200 copies, of which this is copy number INTRODUCTION About 1930 Ada McKinney Petty, Eulah McK1nney Ridgway, and Gerald McKinney Petty gathered and recorded a fairly complete list of the descendants of Ebenezer McKinney and his wife Susannah Rutherford McKinney. Since most of the descendants lived in a small area in the northeast part of Randolph County, Missouri, the task was not difficult. In 1951 Eulah Ridgway and Gerald Petty decided to publish this genealogy. In addition, the record was extended back another three generations to Mordecai McKinney and his wife Mary Sebring McKinney. Any descendant of this couple whose record was made available to us was included. No attempt bas been made to achieve a complete list of their descendants. The major correspondents concerned with this part of the text include Walter McKinney, Mrs. Clara Niven, Martin Greely, Mrs. H. W. Davis, Mrs. Mary Barley, Mrs. Earl· G. Wyatt, Mrs. Mary Craig, Miss Willa Griffin, and Wm. R. Laalona:n. Their help and advice are gratefully acknowledged. Most of them were not allowed sufficient time to obtain complete infor­ mation. In addition to the editors, Mrs. Wyatt, Mrs. Barley, and Miss Griffin have proofread the entire text one or more times. More than one hundred persons have had an oppor­ tuni·ty to proofread portions of particular concern to them, and perhaps three-fourths of them did so. We consider this a grattlying response. We are aware that it is impossible to publish a book of this sort which is free from errors, and will appreciate being informed of errors when they are found.
