• 1799
  "Fees Due in Bourbon County, 1799" shows Hugh Bramlett owing 32 cents. From an unknown publication of the Lexington Chapter D. A. R.
• "[On April 1,1779, we left Orange County, Virginia, for Kentucky. There were about 200 miles of roads from the Holston waters to Kentucky. The party crossed the Cumberland River, stopped at Boonesborough, and the last of April 1779 arrived at Bryant's Station on the North Elkhorn. About July 1779 the party left the North Elkhorn to return to Virginia and] ... I will relate an incident that happened in the wilderness ... When in the wilderness, not far from the Cumberland River, we stopped to eat our dinners and ... to let our horses graze. While we were stopped, a number of men took their guns and turned out to hunt, wishing to kill deer, and while they were out from camp one man, Aquila White, shot and killed William Bramblett, mistaking him for an Indian. Bramblett was a preacher and one of our company and there we buried him."
