FINIS EWING, a member of one of the most respectable and prominent
families in south-western Kentucky, was a native of Virginia, but in
early life settled in Tennessee; thence removed to Kentucky, and lived for
many years in Christian county.  While living there he performed the chief
labors of his ministerial life.  He was one of the young men advanced to
the ministry in the progress of the revival, and who constituted the
independent Cumberland presbytery in 1810.  Late in life he removed to
Missouri, where he died in 1842.  His sons are now prominent men in that
State.  He has always been regarded, if not the father, one of the fathers
of the Cumberland Presbyterian church.
