      William Dye married Phebe Monteer. Came to Mason County, KY from Plainsfield NJ with the Shotwell, Morris, Stout, Drake, Arms & Cahill families in 1788. William Dye purchased 300 acres of land in Mason County, KY May 3, 1793. (Deed book A, page 277, the spelling is William Die).

      Family Bible of William Dye and his wife Phebe Monteer. The Bible record reads:
      "William Dye born August 1st [?] 1740
      Phebe Monteer born March the 3d 1744
      Married January 24th 1762
      Children born to the above named
      John Dye born November 15th 1762
      Joseph Dye born February 6th 1766
      William Dye born December 6th 1768
      Monteer born Deceember [sic] 12th 1770
      Ruth born February 19th 1775
      Mary Dye born March 12th 1777
      Margaret Dye born December 12 1780
      Abigail Dye born February 17th 1785
      Eliza Dye born June 2nd 1803"

      This Bible is in the possession of David Dye of Millersburg, Kentucky. Eliza is apparently a grandchild, the daughter of Abigail. **Note that Luke Dye is not a son of William and Phebe. He is their grandson, and the son of John Dye who was married to Margaret. My information indicates her name was DeWitt. Luke is the ancestor of David Dye who has the Bible.

      As to whether Phebe was a Mount or a Monteer, I cannot say, but their Bible indicates "Monteer".
