There were HICKMANs from that area who came to Floyd Co. in the early 1800s at about the same time as my SUMMERS, UTZ, and BAKER ancestors. My ggg-uncle Jacob SUMMERS, Jr, married Cyrena HICKMAN in Floyd Co (IN) in 1837. Jacob was the son of Jacob and Christiana (VENIS) SUMMERS who arrived in Floyd Co. in 1818. They came from Augusta Co.

No, I have not yet found the information yet. My grandfather was sent to an orphanage in Louisville. I have thoroughly scoured the Jefferson county records to no avail. Now, I'm starting to look in the surrounding counties. I know this document exists because the archives at the Spring Meadow Children's Home has a copy. Because of state laws dealing with adoption and privacy, I'm not allowed to see it. They were sent to Louisville from Indiana, where the children were found. THANK YOU! Bonny Logsdon Burns
