    1. Re: ELIJAH BEHIMER (son of Daniel and Anna of Campbell Co,KY)
    2. Rob, To answer your question about 2 marriages. Billy Bob's web site indicates this first marriage, but nothing else, and at that time, there weren't any other "Elijah" Behymer's that I know of besides a part of that family ended up in Estill Co, KY. At the time of Daniel's death, in the selling of the property, it indicated that Elijah was in IL. I had found them as you can see in Christian Co, but never did too much about it. Some of the family also lived in Estil Co, KY, and the Estill Co KY Marr Bonds 1811-20 indicated that Elijah Pickelsimon marr Elizabeth McKensey 1813.Oct.17. As far as I could tell, unless Elijah's name was Daniel Elijah, I did not find him listed the tax records of Campbell Co, KY, and the first record I found of him was 1830 in Christian Co--which I have not read. He should be found at least in a 1820 census, but I didn't find one, so am not sure where he was at that time. I am jumping to the conclusion that his first wife died sometime before 1836. This really would need to be checked out. I THINK that David as shown in 1850 census and again as Daniel in 1860 census was a child of Elijahs. Also the Aaron as shown in 1870 census as a child of Elijah's. This should be checked out also. As for the Fred Hammer I am not even sure that is a Behymer name, but should be checked out, even tho I don't think he was Elijah's child. As I think I told you, I just again picked up researching lately, after being so busy with personal reasons, so there is a gap of at least 8 -10years since I did all this researching. What should be done, is do a compelte check of this family. You will also note that a lot of the kids went to Brown Co, IL - where the Logsdon's were located. Incidently, I have a lot of information on the David/Daniel of 1850-1860 census, if it proves out that he is part of this family. Sallye
