    Notes:

    Baruch and his twin brother Basil were born at "Orphans Gift Plantation" in
    Prince George Co., MD. and later moved with their parents to "Bradford's Rest
    Plantation" in Lower Potomac Hundred, Frederick Co., MD. (not far from
    Rockford, MD.)

    Baruch served in the Rev. War as a Sargent, 5th Co., Lower
    Battalion, Montgomey Co., Md. under Col. John Murdock, returned on July 15
    1780.

    He died testate. The court ordered three men to appraise his estate.
    Ref. Will book B, 1809 Fayette Co., Ky. The estate consisted of:
    526 Pounds, 11 Shillings, and 4 Pence.

    When Baruch's wife died the court had her estate appraised:
    1. Slaves consisting of "one negro woman Nelly, about 30 yrs. old".
    2. Milley and boy child, Young.
    3. Ester, 80 yrs. old, "worst than nothing"
    4. "Boy" Aaron, 11/12 yrs. old, and George 6 yrs.

    Baruch bought 166 Acres of Henry Bell's 3000 acre military warrent, in 1804.
    Lexington , Fayette Co., Ky. (Spears, Jessamine Co., Ky.)
    This became known as "The Home Place". It was later sold to Baruchs son,
    Thomas and then in 1859 to his son, Thomas.
    It is now owned by Fayette Co. and is used as a nature preserve/park
    where nature walks are held by the local schools. (1991)
    The old plantation home still stands but is in need of much repair.
    Fayette Co. has future plans to restore the home. Today (1992) its
    porch is missing, but the red brick walls remain. The kitchen was added
    to the structure sometime after Baruch died.
    The house is very much like another Prather / Prater plantation home which
    was built about 10 yrs earlier in Lenior City, Tn. by Benjamin Franklin Prater
    (Prather). This house is in complete restoration and is one of the most
    beautiful that I have seen. It was built in 1797 and has its large white
    collums, porch, and the same red brick. Its odd to see how the two home
    resemble each other. (could they have been built by the same builder?)

    Baruch moved from Maryland to Kentucky ca.1812
    He settled a Jack's Creek Pike (abt. 6 miles from Lexington, Ky.)
    Baruch's brother, Walter married Sharaha's sister Ann Higgins.
    Descendants of this family continue today in Lexington, Ky.
    I honored to attend their family reunion in 1991 and was given a tour of the
    old estate and home. Gary Benton Prather
