According to the book "James Money - Kentucky Pioneer.." by Harold S. Money, James was the father of ten children. "A biography of James Albert Money, a grandson, published in 1887 stated he 'reared a family of ten children.' Because of the advanced age of James at the time of some of these births, we can only assume his wives were decades younger than he was.
In Part VII of "First Settlers of Ye Plantations of Piscataway and Woodbridge, Olde Last New Jersey, 1664-1714," which was published in 1935 after his visit to Kentucky, Orra Monnette wrote this conclusion:
"He was called both James Money and James Mooney, as testified by descendants, living at this date in both Green and Shelby Counties, Kentucky, and he lies buried in an old farm burial place, near Coakley, Green County, Kentucky."
He fought in French-Indian War in 1753
He explored 'Kaintucke' with Daniel Boone in 1769.
He fought at Battle of Point Pleasant West Virginia in 1774
He came to 'Kaintucke' again in 1780
He settled in Green County Kentucky in 1798.
From Gene Perkins:
"James Money was one of five men that first walked into Kentucky with Daniel Boone. Money was the surveyor. On their 3rd trip into Kentucky, the group was attacked by Indians. Boone and Money were the only two to survive/escape. James Money was given a large tract of land in Green County for his services. One of his many descendants, also named James Money, still lives there today."
Some have James' death date as 1820, but he was listed as an overseer of Lees Ferry Road in 1820 but was replaced in 1822. His property was valued and sold in March 1827.
His mother was Elizabeth Kent (1704-1774)
