4. Record of Land Sold for Taxes in Cumberland County
5. CLINTON CO. KY Tax Lists
6. Eva Materna Booher, from pension record
7. Application for Civil War pension

!BIRTH: Date estimated from censuses; census for place

!MARRIAGE: Source-7 based on service of Christopher Booher; Catherine says she and David were married 15 Mar 1837 but I think she moved the marriage back so that Christopher would appear to be her natural son. I don't believe she could receive a pension for her step-son; marriage occurred fther the birth of Christopher

!DEATH: Source-3 appears in the 1880 census
