Here lately i have notice several people asking about the Clay Co Burns. In case some may not know our Burns who were in Clay Co up through 1840 Census, appeared in Owsley Co Ky in 1850 A/c Clay Co was cut down to make new Counties. The Info i have on the Burns came out of the Book Morris Fork Kentucky By Leon Morris. His E-Mail is L Morris [email protected] Some of the Other Family names in the Book are ASHER--BAKER-- & Manny other Families that lived in the Area of Morris Fk,Breathitt Co,Buffalo Ck Owsley County. I attend 3 Reunions in the Mts every year. 2 in Clay County are 1 on Newfound Rd the other is Cedar Valley. The 3rd one is on Left Fk of Buffalo Owsley Co. Everybody at these 3 are related to Baker's & Burns. I also attend the Morris Fk Breathitt Co Reunion which is held here in Southern Ohio. William Burns Sr 1756 Va--1845 Clay County is my 4th Great GranFather.His Son William Burns Jr 1802 is my 3rd Great Granfather. His Dau Lydia Burns Carmack 1834--1920's Burried Luce Angle's Perry Co is my 2nd Great GranMother. I also have BURNS connection through Sarah Burns 1801 --1881 Dau of William Burns Sr 1756 --1845 Clay County. I have some transcribed records for Clay Owsley etc. Cousin Tony Root E-Mail [email protected] ASHER BAKER BURNS BISHOP-CARMACK CAUDILL HALE MCINTOSH SPENCER
