James Kay, the younger son of Robert Kay and his wife, Margaret Long-Kay was born in Culpeper County on January 19, 1778 as is shown in the Bible of his father.  He married August 12, 1802, in Culpeper County, Virginia, Sarah, the daughter of James Jones Waggoner and his wife Elizabeth Garnett-Waggoner.  His will dated August 21, 1835, and proved October 26, 1835, confirms the entries made in the family Bible and shows that by his wife, Sarah, who survived him, he had ten (sic) children.

The above Bible record, started in the Bible of Robert Kay and continued by his son James Kay went, in turn, to his son Robert Garnet Kay and thence into the hands of Robert Garnet Kay II.  It will be shown presently that it was in the household of Robert Garnet Kay, brother of William Kay, that William and his wife, Caroline Pendleton, visited in the summer of 1851 at Payson, Illinois, near Quincy.  A similar record was kept by Julia Kay, daughter of William Kay, and has a few additional items touching upon the brothers and sisters of William Kay.  Her entries show that both Robert Garnett Kay and his brother, Gabriel Kay, lived at Payson, Illinois, that William Kay married not only Mary Bayliss, but that he also married (2) Sallee Bailey and married (3) Caroline Augusta PendletonJames, who married Eliza Bailey, resided in St. Joseph, Missouri.  Thurza, who married James Bernard, resided in Quincy, Illinois.  Margaret married Carter Ingraham (Bible record shows Jesse C. Ingram) and resided in St. Joseph, Missouri.  Helen married Captain Frank Kerchival and resided in St. Joseph, Missouri.  Lucy married M. Atkins and lived in Clarksville, Tennessee.  Mary Frances married Dr. William Clements and lived in St. Joseph, Missouri.  The fact that so many of the children of James5 Kay resided in St. Joseph may be explained by the fact that Sarah Waggoner-Kay, their mother, took up residence in St. Joseph at the death of her husband.

The authors say there are ten children, then give only nine; however, nine is correct because James KAY's will names only nine children.
