• Notes

  The parentage for Banner Compton appears to go back to Mathias Compton and his wife Catherine Green of New York and later to North Carolina, Virginia, and Kentucky. There was another Compton family (of New Jersey) that ended up in Green County, Kentucky; of which Adair once was a part of. I have placed Banner here only as a probability; and am not certain of this. This possible connection with Banner Compton is supported by a Ebenezer Turnell Compton; who was baptized in New York City, Kings County, New York and listed as born 3 Sept 1772.  Ebenezer Compton's family is documented in both Russell County, Kentucky and Adair County, Kentucky. This possible connection is further strengthened by the marriage of Ebenezer Compton to Ailecy Alice Hopper in Henry County, Virginia on 6 May 1794.  This is where Banner Compton is listed as born.
