Here are my people from Bullitt County. I would guess that most would show up in the earliest records 1810 or 1820 census, 1810 tax list, and/or the marriages: Thomas TAYLOR b. 13 Mar 1799 (1850 IN census says in KY; family letter says WV; if in KY, it was probably Bullitt C.) He was married in 1836 in Perry C. IN to: Matilda SUMNER b. 13 Nov 1813 Bullitt C. They are both buried in Perry C. IN (John) Daniel TAYLOR b. ca, 1768-1770 where unknown. Father of Thomas. Does he show up later in Bullitt C.? Have notes from 1960s saying he moved from WV to Bullitt C. in 1799 then to Rome, Perry C. IN in 1814. Went by Daniel. His wife is Nancy BLACK (anything on her?). William SUMNER m. ca 1810 in KY to Matilda CAMPBELL (Matilda Sumner's parents). Also have notes that their daughter Matilda's death certificate has John, William's brother, as her father. Dempsey SUMNER (Jr. or II) b. 1738 Nansemond C. VA (William's father) disappears after the Revolutionary War. Nothing on spouse. Does he show up in any Bullitt C. list? His father also named Dempsey SUMNER Thanks for your help. Cindy

I get a message in a box saying something on the order of "That message is not available in that folder and it may have been moved or deleted" . Can somewone tell me what is going on and how to retrieve the responses or the senders response to my e-mail even though that is not what I like to do. I want to share all notes of my family interest to all that may be interested. It is important to figure this out. itis not the first time that this has happened. Sometimes I can retrieve the responses but not always.

In reference to Lois Mauk's posting about the Veteran's Stones stored at Greenwood Cemetery: Mention was also made of the deplorable condition of Eastern Cemetery which was under the same management. The Louisville Genealogical Society has made Xerox copies of the hundreds of pages of records from Eastern Cemetery and is in the slow and tedious process of extracting, indexing, and publishing them. To date three volumes have been completed. I can't estimate how many more volumes will be required nor estimate a completion date. Anyone interested in purchasing one or all of these may contact me for information. Phil Wagner

Somewhere I saw a reference to a Kentucky compilation of volunteers that served in the Mexican War. I don't recall who generated the list. What I would like to know is 1. Who has such a list? 2. Is it possibly different from the one NARA has published? 3. How is it possible to access that information? Thanks for any help. Mike

Is anyone else researching CLARK, HARRIS, HALL of Bullitt County KY late 1700's and early 1800's. Would like to here from you, trying to sort them out. Brenda

Maybe everyone already knows about this, but it was news to me. You can do on-line Revolutionary War Warrants Search via the Kentucky Secretary of State's site at: http://www.sos.state.ky.us/ Added bonus -- the results include GIF images of the actual warrant documents. How cool! Lois

Does anyone researching have any information regarding the family name of HOWERTON in KY about 1840. The specific person I am looking for is Mildred. Possibly in Shelby County. Thank you, Barbara

I am searching for a lady whose maiden name was Nora Ahler. Her father's name was John and she had two sisters; Irene, born about 1931; Allison, born about 1936. Nora was born 1938. Family lived in Bluefield, WV area 1948-51. Do not know where family came from or where they went after Bluefield. Believe John worked for construction company that moved about on large jobs. Name of company may have been "DIBBLE and DIBBLE". Best guess on family roots is NC, KY, IL, SC and WI. There is a slight chance Nora may be a nurse in Raleigh Co., WV. I have looked for years!

Can anyone help me in locating these people. I have looked for them for a very long time. Where in Kentucky is Timothy Sewell and Ora JONES Mills burried. I have no death dates. They had three children James Ellen or Thelma Ray (Raymond?) Ray was born in 1903 supposedly at Franklin in Simpson Co. But I have found nothing on him there. Ray supposedly went into the Navy when he was around 17. He got out and went home. He then left and was in California by the time he was 23. He married Ora Schnell. They had four children. On the Birth certificates it shows Simpson co as Timothy's birth place.. But on his marriage certificate, it shows texas. ? Now why. any Ideas. He would never tell his children anything about his folks except their names. All help appreciated to clear up this mystery. Evelyn

My experience was pre-internet. However, it proves that good things will happen if you are diligent and contact others. One day (after researching for about seven years) I was contacted by a woman who was not of my surname. She said she had heard I was researching the CADDELL family. I informed her that I was. She said she had a Caddell family bible that was her great grandmothers. She agreed to send it to me to make copies of the genealogy section enclosed in the bible. I received it and was completely astounded. I was the family bible of my gr gr grandfather, Andrew Jackson Caddell that died as a prisoner of war in the civil war. Her gr grandmother was the youngest child of Andrew and was born in the cane fields along the Ouachita River, AR while the family was in hiding when the "yankees" came through burning homes and crops. He gr grandmother and descendants had not had any contact with the rest of Andrew's descendants for nearly 100 years. The bible had births, marriages and deaths of all Andrew and his wife Mary's (Burchfield) children and Mary's mother. That "find" eventually opened up my entire genealogy back to the early 1800s in SC with further research back to NC. My part of the family came from NC to SC to AL to AR to TX. Others went from NC directly to the Whitley County, KY area. Bill Caddell Granbury, TX USA

Still searching for info regarding the family of John William Batman (b. abt 1838), usually goes by just William. He married abt 1856 in Louisville to Sarah J (maybe Risinger) and they had at least one child Mary Ellen Batman (b.8-17-1857) William is listed in 1880 census with wife Clara "unknown" and 3 children: Charles (age 7), Maggie (age 3) and Edward (age 9 mo.). Since Sarah Batman did not die until 1922 in Louisville, it is assumed that she and William were divorced prior to 1875. Any info regarding these or any other Batmans in Jefferson Co would be appreciated........cheri ____________________________________________________________________ Get free e-mail and a permanent address at http://www.amexmail.com/?A=1

As soon as I joined this list and sent in my post requesting information on my ancestors I started receiving all kinds of info. Just couldn't believe how helpful everyone has been. This is a great list. Thanks to all of you. I am searching my Cotner and Chappell lines and still need info on the family of Maurice and Susan E. Chappell. If anyone knows of them I would appreciate hearing from them. Thanks again for being such friendly and helpful people. Mary
