Notes: Nancy Gullett was the sister of Evaline Gullett, Artessa Gullett, and Mary "Polly" Gullett.

That George Washington Conley is the son of William W. Conley is based on pure speculation. He is found living with that family in the 1850 census, and he marries Nancy Gullett, who's family is living next to the William Conley family that year. On Michael Nestor's Web site, Michael claims that George Washington Conley is actually Jacob Washington Conley and the son of Henry Conley and Nancy Rice. William's family is in house #605 and Henry's in house #614 in the 1850 census.

Nancy Gullett was reportedly the daughter of Christopher Gullett and Patsy Bailey, but it appears that either the ages listed in the 1850 census are wrong, or Nancy's mother was actually someone else. In that census, Christopher is 70 years old, Patsy is 30, and Nancy is 20. The ages could be a couple of years off, as the census reports are not entirely error free. No luck was had in trying to find a birth or death record of Nancy but on her brother William's death certificate his parents are listed as Christy Gullett and Patsey Bailey.

On page 97 of the 1850 census for My District in Floyd County, Kentucky (dated August 28, 1850), Christopher Gullett is listed as the head of the household for house #604, he's a farmer, born in North Carolina, and he's 70 years old. Also listed are Patsey (born in Virginia, age 30), Nancy (born in Kentucky, age 20), James (born in Kentucky, age 18), Eveline (born in Kentucky, age 16), Artisa (born in Kentucky, age 14), William (born in Kentucky, age 13), Daniel (born in Kentucky, age 10), Wiley (born in Kentucky, age 8), Mary (born in Kentucky, age 7), Harry (born in Kentucky, age 3), and Patsey Bailey (born in Virginia, age 100). They are living next to Nancy's future husband's family.

On page 15 of the 1860 census for Magoffin County, Kentucky (dated June 18, 1860), George W. Conley is listed as the head of the household for house #98, he's a farmer, born in Kentucky, parents born in Kentucky, and he's 27 years old.
