ELIZABETH JANE "Jennie" GILMOUR was the first known child of JAMES and ELEANOR GILMOUR and she was born in Lincoln County, Kentucky on 5 September 1781 on her father's land there. Her father JAMES GILMOUR [born 17 January in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania; died in Christian County, Kentucky on 18 November 1834]settled in Lincoln County after receiving land grants there on the Hanging Fork of the Dix River for service during the War of the American Revolution as a Spy and Sergeant.

On 5 January 1796, JENNIE GILMOUR married TALIAFERRO BRONAUGH in Lincoln County, Kentucky and they became the parents of eleven children.

Shortly after her marriage to TALIAFERRO BRONAUGH on 5 January 1796, JENNIE (GILMOUR) BRONAUGH's father JAMES GILMOUR sold 164 acres of his land on the Hanging Fork of the Dix River in Lincoln County, Kentucky and that's where she and TALIAFERRO BRONAUGH settled as neighbors of her father and siblings.

TALIAFERRO BRONAUGH cleared the land and began farming and growing tobacco. Between 1796 and 1809, JAMES GILMOUR sold an additional 965 acres of land in the same area of Lincoln County to TALIAFERRO BRONAUGH which he cleared for tobacco farming. The GILMOUR's and BRONAUGH's continued to be neighbors and remained in Lincoln County, Kentucky until 1815 at which time they sold their property and made the move westward to Christian County, Kentucky where they purchased adjacent tracts of land in the Lafayette Precinct south of Hopkinsville, built homes and once again cleared the land to raise tobacco. Both families were Presbyterian and in Christian County, Kentucky JENNIE (GILMOUR) BRONAUGH's father founded and was a "ruling Elder" of the Sinking Spring Presbyterian Church in the Lafayette Precinct of that County. Her father TALIAFERRO BRONAUGH, also an Elder of that church, became a huge tobacco farmer in Christian County, Kentucky during the ensuing years and also a hotel inn keeper in Hopkinsville.

JENNIE [GILMOUR] BRONAUGH died in Hopkinsville, Christian County, Kentucky on 24 February 1828. It was thought that she might have been buried in the Sinking Spring Presbyterian Churchyard Cemetery, but a recently discovered list of those buried there does not include her or any of the GILMOUR or Bronaugh family so her burial location is unknown.
