    1. Re: Kentucky Boggs
    2. Shirley, I have done some looking up in my data and according to Sadie Stidham's book "Pioneer families of Leslie County" Levi Boggs -b.1835 m.Elizabeth Calhoun- b.1833.They had a daughter named Rebecca Boggs-b.1860(this is my gggrandmother) ,they also had a son who was named Levi after his father.He doesn't have a birthdate with his name but looking at his bros. and sis. , it appears he was born anywhere from1855-?.Here's a run down of his family.I have a feeling the one you're looking for is the Levi JR. Levi Boggs born 1835 d.1914,son of Eli boggs and Sally Eldridge Boggs,married Elizabeth Calhoun born 1833,d.1917 Children: Henry Boggs 1856-1923 ,m.(1) Cyhnthia Singleton,(2) Mary J. Melton Isaac Boggs 1867-1979,m.Rachel Jane Bailey Henderson Boggs b.1875 Sarah Boggs 1878-1926,m. Newt Sturgill Rebecca Boggs b.1860, m.(1) Jimmy York (2) George Joseph Marion Boggs ,m. Anjie Betty Calhon William Boggs b.1869,m. Rhoda Fields LEVI BOGGS JR.***** Silas Boggs b.1863 Since you mentioned your Levi married a Causey daughter ,I thought that maybe this one may be who your looking for.The dates seem to correspond also.If you notice he had a sister named Rebecca (My gg-grandma) ,maybe he named his daughter after her .If that's the case(If youre pretty sure on your dates) then you would be able to fill in the missing information and you and i would be cousins.By the way the first rebecca Boggs born to Levi is the grandmother of my grandmother who is living with me here in CA at the age of nearly 90 so if we make a connection she would be very interested.She has vivid memories of her grandma.If your not sure on your dates and it turns out to be the older than we're even closer in relationship.
