[Bourbon County]  [Paris City and Precinct]

CAPT. M. M. CLAY, farmer and stockraiser; P. O., Paris, is the twelfth
child born to Col. Henry Clay and Peggie Helm.  Col. Henry Clay was one of
the leading and representative men in Bourbon County in his time, having
been associated with the county since its first organization, he having
come to this part of the country with his father, Henry Clay, when a lad
of tender years, and for some time lived in a stockade which was situated
in the south part of this precinct; he served in the war of 1812, and was
one of the staunch and enterprising men of the county, and possessed noble
qualities of mind and heart.  He died in 1863, in the 84th year of his age.
Three of his sons are yet residents of the county, viz: Henry Samuel,
Francis P., and M. M.; Sallie married William Buckner, Elizabeth, Douglass
P. Lewis.  The subject of these lines was raised upon the homestead, in
his precinct, and has since (with the exception of three years spent in
Arkansas) been a resident of the county.  In 1843 he married Mary, daughter
of Judge Asa K. Lewis, of Clark County, this State; his wife died June,
1879, leaving no issue.  In the fall of 1861, Mr. Clay raised Company C.,
and went forth with it and joined the 21st Ky. Infantry; he now owns the
Scott farm, adjacent to Paris, which is beautiful for situation.  Mr. Clay
in years past was interested in short horns; more recently in trotting
horses.  He is one of the public spirited men of the county.
