Hi all, My main lines are Thompson, Kee, Sanders, O'Bryan (Bryant, O'Briant, Briant), Keller and Church, Charles, Burton, Borders, and Stidham, among many others. Mainly Lawrence, old Floyd, and Johnson Counties in Kentucky. Three major brick walls: (1) Herrell (Herrel, Harrel, Harold) O'Bryan, b. 1790 (birthdate confirmed by War of 1812 Service records) in North Carolina, enlisted with Virginia militia, so birthplace possibly western North Carolina. He m. Margaret Pack in (old) Floyd County, Kentucky. Family history says his father was George, and grandmother was Annie O'Bryan. Can find no records of anyone before Herrell. Would love to track down parents, siblings. (2) Peter Kee (Key), father of Isaac Kee who was b. abt 1835 (don't have records w/me) m. Cleopatra (Cleo) Sanders in Lawrence County, Kentucky, dau Genoa Ann b. abt 1886 is my maternal gr-great-grandmother. Peter Kee likely born in Virginia/North Carolina, m. Rebecca (Jane?) Suttle. Looking for any information on Peter Kee's parent's, siblings. (3) William Burton m. Elizabeth Borders 1850 in Lawrence County, Kentucky. He was likely b. Virginia, and he appears in Lawrence County about the same time as a whole bunch of Burtons from Virginia. Would love to tie him to his family-- parents, siblings, etc. Thanks. Flora Church
