    • ...In 1818 William Means, Jr. was born. He grew to manhood, following agricultural pursuits. He married Susan Pursley, near Hopkinsville, on the place now owned by Rev. Walker, and in 1843 they removed to the adjoining county of Trigg, where he served for some years as Deputy Sheriff. Mrs. Susan Means was born in 1822 and died of apoplexy of the heart in 1875. William Means died in February, 1878. They had a family of eight children: Sarah A., wife of W. H. West of Hopkinsville; Pinkey D., who was killed at Garrettsburg, while in the Confederate Army; Lucy A., deceased wife of John Prince; John H., Josiah M. and James William, all of Washington County, Illinois, and Lucien W. Means, whose name heads this sketch. Besides these, one son, Samuel A. Means, died in childhood.
