Life

Jasper P. McKinney was born in Alabama on 15 September 1821, according to the FamilySearch tree, which gives no source for the date and names his parents as Harris McKinney and Jane Ivey.1 Two published accounts of the family, both secondary sources, also name him as Harris McKinney's son: George E. Brewer's "History of Coosa County, Alabama" (1942) calls him "another son" of Harris, beside Patrick, and Annie Norman's compiled genealogy Thomas Maxwell of Virginia and Georgia (1956) names him last of the five children of Harris McKinney and "Jency Ivey."2 According to Brewer, Harris McKinney was a native of Virginia who moved to Georgia and then to Jefferson County, Alabama, before settling early in the eastern part of Coosa County, where he prospered by farming; the family were Baptists.3 Norman gives Harris's birth as 4 March 1784 in Southampton County, Virginia, his marriage to Jency Ivey as 17 May 1810, and his death as 12 May 1864 in Coosa County.4

He married Martha Bozeman in Coosa County, Alabama, on 1 October 1840, and a Harris McKinney is named in the record of the marriage.5 Inference The index does not say in what capacity Harris McKinney appears, as father, consenting parent or bondsman (the man who signed the marriage bond as surety), but his presence supports the tree's identification of Jasper's father.5 Brewer says that Jasper married a daughter of Nathan Bozeman Sr., and elsewhere that a sister of Dr. Nathan Bozeman married Jasper McKinney.6 In the same sentence Brewer says that one of the two men, Jasper or his father-in-law (the wording allows either), "also owned a good farm and slave property in the upper part of Coosa," just after describing the farm, orchard and enslaved workforce of Jasper's brother Patrick.7 Inference The word "also", following the description of Patrick's farm, suggests that Brewer meant Jasper.7 The federal census of 1850 lists Jasper McKinny as the head of a household in Coosa County, with his wife Martha.8

According to Brewer, he "went to Texas about 1852."9 By 1860 the family was in Texas, where the census lists Jasper Mc Kiny in the Western District of Milam County; the censuses of 1870 and 1880 found him in Texas again, in 1880 at Maysfield, Milam County.10 The tree names twelve children, born between 1841 and 1863: James Madison, Mary Frances, Jennie Sarah, Harriet E., Malinda Ann, Nathan Bozeman, Florence A., Patrick Harris, Alice Martha, Martha Lou Dalila, Adoniram Judson and Emma I. McKinney, the last of whom died in infancy in 1863.11 He died in Texas on 14 November 1880 and was buried in the Little River Cemetery at Jones Prairie, Milam County, where his sister Emily McKinney Massengale had been buried in 1861.12 He is named as father in five Texas death records between 1915 and 1933, those of Jennie Porter, P. H. McKinney, Nathan B. McKinney, Annie V. Vandiver and A. J. McKinney.13
