PRESLEY N. YAGER was born where he now resides, in Oldham (but what was
then Jefferson) County, October 19, 1810, the fourth of a family of nine
children born to Jesse and Anna (Clore) Yager.  Jesse Yager was born in
Virginia, came to Kentucky about 1800, and located in Danville, but about
1805, settled where our subject now resides.  He was a son of Nicholas,
of Virginia, who was a son of Adam, a native of Germany, but who came to
Kentucky at an early date.  Jesse was a farmer and carpenter, and died
September 10, 1841.  Mrs. Anna (Clore) Yager, was a daughter of John and
Margaret (Blankenboker) Clore, natives of Virginia, and died May 15, 1860.
Jesse, at the time of his death, owned about 700 acres of fine land.  Our
subject was reared on the farm, and received a common-school education.
He chose farming for his vocation, and now owns 400 acres where he resides.
November 15, 1842, he was united in marriage with Mary J. Hardin, a
daughter of Jonathan and Lucy (Wilhoite) Hardin, of Oldham County. To this
union were born two children: a boy who died in infancy, and Nora E.,
the wife of John D. Barbor, sheriff of Jefferson County.  His wife having
died June 27, 1864, Mr. Yager married Susan F. Hardin, a sister of his
first wife, who bore him two children, Laura V. and Jesse J., the latter
deceased.  Mr. and Mrs. Yager are members of the Christian Church.
Politically he is a Democrat.
