History of Bourbon, Scott, Harrison and Nicholas Counties, Kentucky, ed. by William Henry Perrin, O. L. Baskin & Co., Chicago, 1882. p. 594. [Scott County] [Georgetown City and Precinct] JESSE HAMBRICK, farmer; P. O. Georgetown; was born in Scott County, Ky., July 15, 1803, to Jesse and Liddie (Martin) Hambrick, natives of Virginia, and among the first to enter upon pioneer life in Kentucky. He died in 1862; she in 1803. Owing to the limited school privileges, Jesse, our subject, received only such an education, as could be obtained in the common schools at that early day. He entered upon the battle of life as a farmer, and has by his energy and industry accumulated 300 acres of choice farm land, which "as a practical farmer" he keeps in a high state of cultivation. He has always been an extensive dealer and trader in stock, which he has carried on in nearly all States. His farm is situated on the Dry Run road, and the house in which he lives was built of brick, by Waller Roads, in 1774, and was one of the first brick residences built in Scott County. Mr. Hambrick was married in Scott County, Jan. 14, 1827, to Delilah Parker, who was born to Hutchinson and Sarah (Pace) Parker, natives of Maryland, July 11, 1805. She is the mother of six children, viz: Santford, Wilford, Jesse, Parker, Eliza Jane and Evermount. Mr. Hambrick is a man of thorough business principles, and has always enjoyed the highest esteem of the entire community. Religiously, himself and wife are connected with the Baptist denomination at Dry Run. Politically, his sympathies are with the Democratic party.
