      Note: From MBG Genealogy: Theophilus Galasby, son of Samuel, was born in 1776. He died in Logan County after 1860 at the home of his niece, Nancy Gillispie Adkins (Aaron Adkins). He was recorded as being 85 years old in the 1860 Logan census. Wife Mary Champ, died before 1860. Samuel II, Theopolis, son James - about all old ones, maybe 20 buried at BulI Creek at Mikes Branch. Only one stone, that of James, marked. Can't find others, but know alI in two rows, including two Negro slaves buried beside James at his request - now called Holstein cemetery. As you go up the cemetery road, they lie just above the road - next to the road.
