History of Livingston County
from The History of Caldwell and Livingston Counties, Missouri. 1886ISAAC ASHBY(Farmer and Stock-raiser, Post-office, Jamesport).Among the old residents of this township who are accorded a worthy place in the respect of her citizens is Isaac Ashby, originally from the Blue Grass State, and a man now in his sixty-eighth year, his birth having occurred in Ohio county, January 11, 1819. His parents were Virginians by nativity, but early made their home in Kentucky, where they died. In their family were 10 children: Isaac, Rebecca, now Mrs. Warden Williams; Martha A., wife of A. G. Brown; Lucinda, wife of Robert Brown; Jared T., John R., William, Sanford R. and Edmund R. All of these were reared in their native State and all were taught the rudiments and later experience of farm labor, a calling in which the subject of this sketch seems to excel. The brothers, with the exception of Jared, are connected with the Masonic Order. Sanford R. Ashby was a resident of this county for several years, but annually he went to Texas and from there returned to Kentucky. It was on November 25, 1845, that Isaac Ashby was united in marriage with Miss Judith Anderson, daughter of Thomas and Anna Anderson, the former originally from Ireland and the latter of Virginia; they were both reared in Kentucky and in that State passed away. Mr. and Mrs. Ashby are the parents of two children: Nancy A., wife of John A. Mastries, and Emma C., now Mrs. Louis Rice. Mr. Ashby and wife are consistent upright members of the Baptist Church. It was in 1869 that he became located in this county and here he has since closely applied himself to farming and stock-raising, and with what success may be inferred from a glance at his present place. This contains 160 acres well improved and in good cultivation and nicely situated. Besides this he still possesses a 50-acre tract in the Blue Grass State. He is connected with Jamesport Lodge No. 201, of the A. F. and A. M.
