    1. RE: [INSHELBY] SWINFORD
    2. Lee Swinford
    3. Thanks for your response Olive. I too have wondered about the children that were born several years after William Swinford's death, because I had this same death date in 1871 for him. Judging from Diane's information you included, it appears she has the same conclusion about the father of this William Swinford as I've come to. I have tried to tie two William Swinfords I have in my data together, with one that was married to Nancy Harrell, but no father and mother in my data, and another William Swinford that was the son of John Milton Swinford (my ggg-grandfather). However, I have a son Everett P. Swinford of this second William Swinford, and I have never seen Everett listed as a son of William and Nancy (Harrell) Swinford. Do you know where the Fenn's Chapel cemetery is that Diane mentions as the burial place of Deborah (Leach) Swinford? As I have said in earlier emails to you and this distro I found Deborah's marker in the Parrish Cemetery west of Lewis Creek Baptist Cemetery, but the marker now appears to be gone. Thanks so much for your assistance.

    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Bi.2ADI/538 Message Board Post: Web site update 3/11/05 http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/ The Historic Atlas Series has been updated to include township and precinct level atlases from Pennsylvania and Kentucky. By popular request, we are currently digitizing more of these kinds of atlas and map data, and will be adding more in the coming weeks. Kentucky: http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/ky_map/ky_index.html Pennsylvania: http://www.historic-atlas-series.com/pa_map/pa_index.html At the present, atlas CD's are offered from Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Missouri, West Virginia and Virginia will be added later this year so please feel free to check back often. The Historic Atlas Series may be an invaluable aid to Genealogists, Historians and researchers in search of 19th century places and place names. Many early property owners are indicated on the township and precinct level maps making these a great resource for identifying 19th century land ownership. Each atlas includes the following 19th century features: * roads, railroads and canals * cities, towns and villages * post offices and government sites * one-room schoolhouses, churches and cemeteries * rivers, streams and ferries * industrial sites, furnaces and mills * early homesteads and farms * land ownership - and much, much more Details on early maps are often difficult to read and these are no exception; however, by virtue of high resolution Adobe PDF formatting, map documents may be inspected at high levels of magnification without additional digital distortion; something that simply cannot be accomplished with paper reproductions and photocopies. The Adobe Acrobat Reader for MS Windows is needed to view, zoom, pan and print from the PDF map images, and is included free on each CD. No other software is necessary. The map data has been created and configured using the Adobe Acrobat Reader (6.0) for MS Windows (98, 98SE, XP, NT and 2000). The maps may be viewed in earlier versions of the software as well; however, optimum use of the data can be expected using the Adobe Reader 6.0 that is included on each CD.
