They farmed land on the South Fork of Tumlinson's Run in the lost county of VA, Yohogania Co, according to land records of 1775 but sold that land to Dorsey Pentecost in 1779. They moved to KY that year and settled in then Hardin Co. Daniel was a revolutionary war soldier and fought in two of Gen George Rogers Clark's campaign against the Indians. One researcher, Col. George Byers (deceased) believed Daniel's father to be Thomas Byers. Since Daniel is my brick wall, I have decided to start collecting as many early Byers family trees as possible. I am hoping to eventually to make a connection that will lead me past him. I would appreciate receiving by email or mail anything that your are willing to share of your family tree and Byers research. Likewise, I am also willing to share. I use Family Tree Maker 2005 and GEDCOM files are great. Email: mikebyers@alltel.net Address: 134 Stratmoor Dr, Elizabethtown, KY 42701
