John S & Susan (McDonald) Ransdell Family

 

John & Susan Ransdell were the parents of 10 known children.  The family lived in and around Fayette & Bourbon County Kentucky.

John Shelton RANSDELL

This photo of John Shelton has the dates 1831 – 1887.  His tombstone shows these same dates.  I, however, do not have any confidence in the birth year of 1831.  From census records, my feeling is that he was born around 1842. 

John Shelton & Susan (McDonald) RANSDELL Tombstone

Found at Old Union Christian Church Cemetery on Russell Cave Road in rural Fayette County, near the Bourbon County line.  My feeling is, in addition to the birth date being incorrect for John Shelton, the birth date for Susan is also incorrect. I believe she was born around 1847. 

 

Ida Mae (Ransdell) & William Shelton Rose Family

 

Ida Mae Ransdell (1867 – 1898) married William Shelton Rose.  They were the parents of 4 children; Clarence (1891-1965), Ollie Lee (1896-1976), Roy Alvin (1895-1978) and Ira Shelton (1897-1980).  Following Ida’s death, William married Ida’s sister Lula.
