9/06 CMB note: I'm not sure about NMB's sourcing for Ignatius' parentage. She's usually right but not infallible. The Spalding Memorial fudges Ignatius's parentage. I've seen other claims for either Peter or Thomas as Ignatius' father, but no solid sourcing. A 2003 DAR application 816718, volume 4978 from Lucille Marie SPALDING cites this Ignatius as s/o Bennett (b. SMC, MD 1758, d. Washington Cty (now Marion Cty), KY 15 May 1849) and his 1st wife, Eleanor FENWICK (m. MD 1793, d. 1790), giving Bennett and Eleanor's children as Edward (b. 1781, m. 1st cousin Elizabeth SPALDING), Louis Ignatius (b. 1782), Robert, George, Nancy, Monica, Mary, Bennet (sic), Dorothea. Bennett (Sr.)'s 2nd wife given as Mary FRENCH (m. SMC, MD 15 Feb 1797). The 1945 DAR application of Mary Alma KUNKLER (no. 349543, vol. 2645) has essentially the same informtion, citing the Spalding Memorial (SM) as the source for Bennett as parent. However, most recent edition of SM I've seen questions that link.
