'Thomas Pound, a son of John and Sarah (Martin) Pound, was born in
Middlesex Co., N.J. July 28, 1767, died February 2, 1848, and is
buried at the Second Prairie Creek Cemetery, Vigo Co., Indiana. He
moved to Maryland with his parents and shortly after his marriage
migrated from near Cumberland, that State, to Nelson Co., Kentucky, by
way of the Ohio River on a flat boat, arriving there in April 1786. He
lived in Nelson County for a few years and then moved to the adjoining
county of Shelby, now Spencer County, near Elk Creek, and in 1801 to
Butler Co., Ohio on the Miami Bottoms, and in November 1816, to Vigo
Co., Indiana, near Prairie Creek, where he resided until his death. He
was married in Maryland in 1786 to Sarah Kester, daughter of William
and Elizabeth (Lacock) Kester, who was born June 24, 1767, and died

being buried in the same grave. Thomas was short and of dark
complexion, while his wife was rather tall and fair, her hair being
