Please excuse this long message but I hope this is helpful to many of you on this list. Since I offered to do lookups here I have been asked by many of you where to find source books. Here are some of the places I have found useful, especially in Indiana and Kentucky: In fact this first place "Selbypub" was a real find just this week. She has just been put online and I called her to order 4 books today that I haven't been able to find anywhere else. Her prices were reasonable also.

Kentucky names----Townsend BENNETT, mary RUNNELS both born around 1805/6 Debbie
In my family tree I have some KELLEMS and some NELSONs families from the Kentuckiana area. I am looking for the parents of the following two lines: Samuel Franklin KELLEMS (b. 1817, Breckinridge, Co. KY, d. 18 Mar 1894, Baxter Co. AR) m. 1852 Ida HALL (b. Perry Co. IN, d. 1860 Adyeville, Perry Co. IN) Children Clara Cornelia Charles D. William Lewis (b.05 Mar 1857, Adyeville, Perry Co. IN, d. 19 Jun 1937, Pittsburg, KS) m. ?? Lenora Alice NELSON (b. 28 Apr 1861, Perry Co. IN, d. 22 Sep 1912, Pittsburg, KS) Children Marry (Mary?) Francis (nicknamed Mollie) LuLu Bethel (b.14 Dec 1881, Troy Twshp, Perry Co. IN, d. 24 Apr 1970, Shawnee OK) George Franklin (b. 22 Mar 1884, Maxwell, Spencer Co. IN, d. 02 Jun 1913, Joplin, MO Lewis Hurshell (b. 09 Apr 1886?, Telcity, Spencer Co. IN, d. 10 Aug 1933, Pittsburg, KS Hattie Mae (b. 26 Jun 1888, Schetopa?, Labett Co. KS d. ??) Maudella (b. 19 Jan 1891, Gassville, Baxter Co. AR, d. ??) Cornelia Mable (b. 24 Aug 1895, Siloam Springs, Benton Co. AR, d. ??) AND William Frankard NELSON (b. ??, Nelson Co. KY, d. 06 Jul (Aug?) 1862) m. ?? Serah (Sarah?) Francis Cravens (b. Maxwell, Spencer Co. IN, d. May 1895) Child (Only one is known) Lenora Alice NELSON (the same as above) Samuel Franklin KELLEMS is listed as a soldier in his grave mark at the Three Brothers grave site in AR. Because of his age, I don't think he was in the civil war, and he is not listed in the war with Mexico. William Frankard NELSON was a casualty of the civil war. Family records say he was killed at Shiloah, but that doesn't match with the battle date (wounded then died?) and it also says he was in "Volunteer 1st Indiana Inf." but I haven't found that either. I am also always looking for "cousins" as well as ancestors or other facts about these families. Thanks, Mike
