Friends, Kentuckianians, countrymen! Lend me your ears! Does anyone remember my little sermon about the archives? Well, the purpose of those archives is to have a record of our queries and discussions on the list. The archives are browseable and searchable. My gut feeling is that not one single person will ever enter the search terms "My Family", "Most Wanted" or "Digest 242", etc. That means that no one searching for THEIR family ties will find YOUR family ties! Please take a minute before you hit the send button and make sure the subject line has at least ONE surname in it. A date, time frame or location are real pluses but at least make sure to include the main surname you're looking for. Thanks for your attention! I appreciate your patience! Pat Mount List Admin
Still looking for John SPAULDING and Cynthia MOORE who were in Lawrence Co KY 1850 and 1860 and in Scioto Co OH 1870. Most of their children (that I've been able to track) went to OH and on to Nebraska, although one of their daughters married DUNN and ended up in Jewell Co KS. Charlene Email: mihnbu@aol.com

My grandfather Gillum Edgar was born somewhere in KY 24 march 1884. He went to a teachers college KY His mother was Ellen (Edgar?) and father was George Harris. He had a uncle named James. I found a census record in KY of a George Harris b abt 1832 in VA, a farmer in Miller Creek, Estell Co KY, whose wife was Jane (NLN) b in KY, with 6 children One named George born abt 1860 and another James b abt 1866. Does anyone else in the vast Harris family recognize this line? Am I related to any living Harris'? Our Harris line will die out at the passing of my two male Harris cousins as they have no children.

I have two female ancestors I would like to find the parents of: (1) Hannah MILLER, b. 12 Dec 1777 (possibly in VA), d. 19 Sep 1834 in KY married 6 Sept 1796 in Woodford Co, KY by James Dupuy. (Marriage date also listed as 8 Sep 1795) to Edmund SEARCY, b. 25 Mar 1767 in Granville, NC, d. 15 Oct 1825 in KY (2) Letitia N.

Moorman to Samuel McCLARTY, b. 23 Aug 1788, Miflin Co, PA, d. 13 Nov 1853 Henderson, Rusk Co, TX (I think her father might have been named Charles since their first son was named Charles which is not a traditional McClarty family name) These two ancestors have been brick walls for me and I would love to find who their parents/siblings were.

It has now been so long since we started this round robin, that I've forgotten whether I put a name down with my own surname or that of the elusive Kentuckians. Anyhow, here goes for both myself and my wife. Hugh McCracken, b. abt 1795, probably Bourbon County. He married Ann Prather, 27 Feb 1816 in Bourbon County. Moved to Decatur County, Indiana, where he died, 13 April 1861. Need to figure out if his father was Cyrus McCracken. Oliver Badger Williams, b. 1807 (probably Oct 18) in Montgomery County, to Nancy Taylor Williams and unknown Williams. He moved to Putnam County, IN, and died 4 Feb 1871. Which Williams was his father? Any kin to the Rawley or Raleigh Williams family that was prominent in that part of the county, north of Mt. Sterling? Bill ===== William J.
