Mary, Please contact Judy Lyne, President of the Logan Co. Ky. Genealogical Soc. judylyne@logantele.com She will research your family in great depth and quickly get back to you with any info she and others might find. The Soc. members are very anxious to make connections with some of their oldest pioneer families' ancestors, eg: Maulding, Ewing, Jackson and Caldwell. The Logan Co.Ky. Gen. Soc., located in Russellville, Ky., has a wonderful library with extensive research materials on almost everyone who passed through early Logan Co. Ky., and I know that a lot of our Southern IL. and Ind. ancestors traveled through this area on their way West. Please do not overlook this wonderful resource for your investigation!
