Silas ATCHISON

1  _UID 2A498C23DC686F4886C12D1E61AE329C8CA5

Silas  is believed to have been born in Virgina, probably in the 1760's but prior to 1766.  When a yong man he enlisted in the Continental Army and served as a soldier during the Revolutionary War. He was in the army in 1781 at the time of the siege of York Town, according tot information contained in a history of the Atchison family by Mr. S. W. Blizzard, a grandson of Silas.

Silas is thought to have three brothers and two sisters.  The brothers names were William, Henry and John.  One sister was named Sallie.  The name of the other sister is unknown.  Silas moved from Hardy County, Virginia to Bath County, Kentucky about 1796 with his brother William and maybe his other brother.

Two or three years later Silas moved to Ross County, Ohio to a farm near Chilicothe where he remained two years.  He then moved back to Kentucky where he purchased a farm in Mason County near Mayslick.

His name first appears in the census report of 1810 for Mason County, Kentucky.  It appears that he may have been living in Ross County, Ohio in 1800.   The first census taken was for the yera 1790 but it was not until 1850 that the reports were elaborated upon sufficiently to include the names and dates of birth of all memebers of the household.  The earlier reports gave only the name of the head of the household and by age groups, the number of males and females in the family.  The census report for the year 1810 for Mason County Kentucky shows this entry:

Head of Household, -- Silas Atchison

Occupants Age                     Males      Females           Slaves
45 and over         1
25 to 44 inc.            1
16 to 24 inc.            2
10 to 15 inc.       1    2
0 to 9 inc.              3    1

Total               5    6              2

This census discloses that Silas Atchison was at that time over 44 years of age and therefore was born prior to 1766.  His wife Ruth was under 45 years of age.
There were six sons and seven daughters.1  BIRT
