Elizabeth (Glasscock) Dailey, both of whom were natives of the Blue
Grass State. John H. Dailey was an extensive farmer of Kentucky and a
man well and favorably known throughout the community in which he
resided. His death occurred in September, 1865. Dr. TG. Dailey lived
with his parents on the home farm until the attainment of his majority,
receiving a fair education considering the facilities offered at that
time. He taught school in Breckenridge, Grayson and Hardin Counties,
Ky., and during this time read medicine. In 1854 and 1855 he attended
the Medical University of Louisville, then came to Spencer County, Ind.,
and one year later began practicing at Taylorsville, Warrick County. He
