Kentucky Genealogy: Bays

To help document, here's the Bays part of my family.

• Charlene Riley Bays (born 13 September 1937, Jefferson county, Kentucky - died 11 January 2013, Marion county, Indiana) - my mother
• John Riley Bays (born 30 May 1910, Kentucky - died 21 May 1997, Floyd County, Indiana) - My grandfather
• Joseph Walter Bays (born 2 December 1879, Carter county, Kentucky - died 1 May 1968, Rowan county, Kentucky) - John's father
• Newton White Bays (born 11 December 1853, Magoffin county, Kentucky - died 27 January 1922, Carter county, Kentucky), Joseph's father
• Rufus Garland Bays (born 7 June 1816, Tennessee - died July 1865, Carter county, Kentucky), Newton's father
• Joel Bays (born 1782, Scott county, Virginia - died 28 September 1852, Scott county, Virginia), Rufus's father

Marriages

• John Riley Bays married Bertha Cymenthia Bentley on 15 October 1931 in Rowan county, Kentucky
• Joseph Walter Bays married Anna Dora Roberts on 8 October 1902 in Kentucky
• Newton White Bays's spouse is listed as Amanda Helen Perry, but I have no marriage information yet.
• Rufus Garland Bays married Sarah Salyer around 1846 in Floyd county, Kentucky

That's all the marriages I've found information for now.

Census Information

• In the 1940 census, John Riley Bays (29) was listed living on Upper Hunter Trace, Jefferson county, Kentucky. Also at the same residence are his wife Bertha (28), son John Riley, Jr. (less than a month old), and daughters Helen (7), Jane (4), and "Cyaleen" (2), who I'm pretty sure was my mother, Charlene.
• In the 1930 census, John Riley Bays (19) was living at his father's home in Pine Grove, Rowan county, Kentucky. At the same location were his father, Joseph Walter Bays (50), his mother (Anna D. Bays (43), sisters Myrtle S. (25) and Rosa M. (10), and brothers Charles A (17), Elbert L. (15), Andy J. (13), Hiram W. (8), Dennie L. (6), and James W. (1).
• Joseph Walter Bays (40) is listed in the 1920 census as living in Brushy precinct of Rowan county, Kentucky. Also listed in the household are his wife, Anna D. Bays (33); sons Edward (13), John (9), Charlie (7), Elbert (5), and Andy (2 years, 8 months); daughters Martha (15), and Lillie (11).
• Joseph Walter Bays (30) is listed in the 1910 census as living in Brushy precinct of Rowan county, Kentucky. Also listed in the household are his wife, Anna (22), his son Edward (3) and his daughters Myrtle (5) and Lily (10 months?).
• Joseph Walter Bays (20) is listed in the 1900 census, living at his father's household in Carter county, Kentucky. See the 1900 entry for Newton White Bays below.
• Newton White Bays (47) shows up in the 1900 census in Carter county. Also living in the household are his wife Amanda (43); sons Luther (22), Joseph (20), Alford (18), Dennie (16) and Robert (11); daughters Eva (13), Sena (9), Maggie (7) and Lona (3).
• There is a Newton Bays (16) living at the Robert Perry residence in the 1870 census. Robert Perry is the grandfather of Amanda Helen Perry, Newton's future wife. I believe this is Newton White Bays. At the same residence are Robert Perry (60), Sarah Perry (48?), David Perry (15), and Rebecca Bays (19). The post office is listed as Grayson, Carter county, Kentucky.

So far, that's all I've found in the Federal censuses. Not nearly as much as I would like, but I guess that's how it goes. If anyone has more information, I'd love to hear it.
