"Kentucky: A History of the State," (Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 6th ed., 188 7), Shelby County.
"S. V. NUCKOLS was born in Scott County, KY, in 1839. His father, Lewis Nuckols, was also a native of Scott County. His mother, whose maiden name was Watkins, was a relative of Henry Clay's mother. Our subject is the youngest of five children. He has always followed farming except for five years, when he engaged in banking and merchandising.
During the civil war he served in Morgan's cavalry, and was detained a prisoner twenty-two months in Federal prisons. In 1866 he moved to Shelby County, where he has one of the finest and nicest places in the county, containing 186 acres of land.
In 1868 he married Martha R. Thomas, daughter of Morris Thomas, of Shelby County, a pioneer of that county, who came from Harrodsburg, when only three years old, in 1799.
Mr. Morris Thomas first engaged in farming, then in the hide and tallow business in Shelbyville, and in 1819 moved to Louisville, which was than a small place. He engaged extensively in pork packing, shipping South, and became quite wealthy, owning land in Iowa, Illinois and Indiana, and continued the business until 1845; was also the first importer of Shorthorn cattle and dealt extensively in mules. He next engaged in the manufacture of soap and candles, and lost heavily but managed to save his land. He died in 1870.
Mrs. Nuckols was born in 1840; she is the second of a family of nine children, the youngest being Morris, the only brother now living. She is a member of the Episcopal Church and has been for twenty-two years. To Mr. and Mrs. Nuckols have been born four children: Mattie T., Sam V., Morris T. and Jane W. Mrs. Nuckols' grandmother was a sister of Gen. Pogue, of Virginia."
