      The following article may/may not pertain to this Jesse Gough, but
      placed here for more research. Taken off the Internet: Goughs as
      History Makers, Contributed by Melissa Jane Gough, Greencastle, IN
      (The Goff/Gough Family Association): Continued from G/G:~&D, Vol. XV,
      No. 4, p. 100, the following charts serve as a foundation for the text
      in the historical Gough genealogy compiled by member, Melissa J. Gough
      and her mother. Documentation and discussion of the information which
      is included here are detailed in The History Makers Vol. I. On
      3-­29-­1799 Jesse Gough received a grant of 162 acres South of Green
      River in Logan Co., KY and on 17 Aug l805 Jesse Gough received an

      Preble Co, Somers Twp, Ohio Federal Census. Jesse Gough filed for and
      was granted 6 tracts of original land in Hamilton Co IN in 1834 &

      In a book compiled by Raymond DeWeese (1992) The County of Butler in
      the Commonwealth of KY 1810-1814 Taken from Order Book A & Circuit
      Court Order Books A & B", page 9: Jesse Gough and John Whitaker (among
      others) were chosen by the courts as Road Commissioners for helping to
      build and maintain the road from Andrew Lovelace on the Mud Road to
