CJ, in checking the IGI for both Busby & Harp, I find there are several born and married in Kentucky. However, I did not find them married to each other, but there were several Busby's in Estill, Franklin, Fayette Co's of Kentucky. Marilyn

Hello, I don't have a clue as to the county James Busby was born in, but assume it was somewhere in KY. He moved back and forth from KY to IN a couple of times before he passed. Any ideas of how to find out which county? I know he was married to Eliza Harp and also believe they were married in KY but again, don't have a county. Anyone have any ideas? CJ

Searching for information on Thomas D. Chisham, born ca. 1812, somewhere in Kentucky. Thomas' middle name was Dinwiddie. He married Julia Stribling in 1834. In Julia's bio it mentions that Thomas's maternal grandfather was Thomas Dinwiddie. Have not been able to pin down who Thomas Chisham's parents were, or what county Thomas Chisham was born in. Thanks, Deah

Aloha List, I have tried everything all the kind and helpful folk have suggested but am at wit's end. From daughter's census it states her Father CHASTAIN WILLIAMS was obviously born in Kentucky approx. 1841. I have found no clues to family. I do not know what county to look in. I have gone trhu cemetery listings and other items avaiable on-line. He married a Nancy Jane Cargile in 1865 in Benton, Arkansas. Had 5 daughters I know of, 2 born in Barry County, MO. Does not seem to be buried there. Have been looking in AR. cemeteries, no luck. Can anyone help? Thank You, Aloha Barbara

STATE NEWS TAKEN FROM-THE ADAIR COUNTY NEWS JANUARY 12, 1898 EDITION TYPED AS PUBLISHED AND SUBMITTED By Laura Frost Wright JESSE HODGE, a farmer near Lewsburg, dropped dead. It costs Mason county fifty dollars a day to guard her toll-gates An infant child of JOHN ROBY, of McLean county , was burned to death. A little daughter of Col. HUNPHREY, of Caldwell county was burned to death. JAMES REED FULKERSON, a prominent farmer of Daviess county, committed suicide by hanging. S.W. BARROW, a merchant of logan county was attacked by robbers and narrowly escaped death. Raiders have threatened to destroy the property of members of the garrard county court if Pikes are not freed. Gen. CASH CLAY has written a book of the "Vendetta" and sold the manuscript to the new York Herald for $100 ROBT. L. PRATHER, a married man, is under arrest at Flemingsburg charged with abducting sixteen year old ANNA-BELL BROWN. At Russellville, ROBERT EVANS, aged seventeen, stabbed to death his schoolmate, GEORGE DUNCAN about the same age, during a boyish quarrel, while returning home from school. Friday night fifty or more negroes, who live at Glendale, Hardin County, got into a fight, with the result that BOB KLINLESMITH stabbed CHARLES SMITH to death. During the fight CHARLES SMITH"S mother ran in to help her son, and it is said someone cut her in fifteen different places. MURDERER J.BUSHMAN, the murderer of his mother-in-law, Mrs. STEWART, was arrested by LOUIS STUBER, his brother-in-law , in a cornfield about seventy-five yards from the house where the deed was done. He was brought to town and carried before "Squire Collins" and upon waving trial was committed to jail to await the next term of circuit Court. BUSHMAN said yesterday that he was coming to town to surrender when arrested., and that the night before he had gone sixty miles from Paris, crossing into Kentucky. He was considraby exhausted and suffered from the effects of exposure since he became a fugitive. Sheriff HAYNES and possee and City Marshall Mills were out searching for him when he was arrested by STUBER. It is not known wheather STUBER will claim the $100 reward offered for BUSHMAN"S arrest. It was feared that BUSHMAN would resist arrest. It is also believed that he ventured back to the scene of his crime with the intention of killing his wife, who had been very anxious to see him arrested and punished. Mrs. MARY ANN STEWART, keeper of the house of ill fame near paris, was shot by her son-in-law , BUSHMAN, on Christmas eve, from the effects of which she died Sunday evening. BUSH, as he is generally known, was trying to extort money from his wife and her mother and became engaged in a fight with his wife, when the old woman interferred. Whereupon he drew his pistol and opened fire on both, the bullets aimed at his wife going wild, but one struck Mrs. STEWART on the fourth rib on the right side, glancing around and passing out the back. It is said that the woman was armed, but it is not known to be a fact. Immediately after the shootong, BUSH came to town and bought a quantity of morphine and made his escape. Since then he has been in the vicinity by several negroes and had been chased day and night by Sheriff HAYNES and posse and Marshal MILLS, but had managed to elude the officers. He is about 40 years of age, with his home being at Bowling Green, but came originally from Indiana. He married a daughter of the murdered woman in 1892. The murdered woman was buried in the city cemetery. She was born of respectable parentage in this county and led a virtuous life until the war, her husband being a respectable man and a confederate soldier. For many years she kept the house of ill-fame near town, where she met her violent death. The name of STEWART was neither her maiden name nor that of her husband but an assumed one. There is a strong feeling against BUSHMAN here. -Bowling Green Times Submitted By Laura frost wright August 9, 2000 -- http://www.geocities.com/mamafrost/index.html RUSSELL COUNTY KENTUCKY FRIENDS http://www.egroups.com/group/russellcountyfriends A.n.d.e.r.s.o.n-B.o.w.l.e.s-B.u.n.c.h-B.l.a.c.k C.o.l.y.e.r-D.e.S.p.a.i.n-F.e.r.r.y-F.r.o.s.t G.r.a.h.a.m-B.u.r.t.o.n-J.a.s.p.e.r-H.u.c.k.a.b.y M.c.C.u.b.b.i.n.s -N.e.a.t-P.a.i.n.t.e.r-R.i.c.h.m.o.n.d R.e.x.r.o.a.t-B.o.l.e.n-Q.u.i.n.n-W.a.r.d-W.a.l.k.e.r W.r.i.g.h.t My biggest brick wall John Frost Born Clinton County Ky-1841 d. 1910 parents were William Frost & Rachael?

Hi All, If anyone has access to the 1921-22 Louisville city directory, would you look and see if there is a Walter/William R. FULLER, wife Beatrice. Also, Walter/William N. DANIEL, wife Estelle. These two regularly used both first names and there is some confusion as to which one was in Louisville in 1922. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Judy in GA

Many areas of Ky have gotten new area codes in the past year, and most of them used to be 502. I don't know if this is one of the counties that changed or not but you might want to check it. ;-) nt |-----Original Message----- |From: Dave Martin [mailto:[email protected]] |Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2000 4:06 PM |To: [email protected] |Subject: [KY] Edmonson co records | | |Hi, |I have been trying to get hold of the Edmonson co. clerk |office today ( |ph# 502-597-2624) but I can not get through , maybe due to |the strike.

Mary Mills: b. abt. 1877 Daughter of James H. Mills, born in either KY or MO married: December 27, 1893 in Randolph County, AR Joseph A. Mathews: b. abt 1870 Can anyone make a connection to this lady or any of her family? Cindy (Stokes) Zadrozny

I am researching a man named Enoch Mills and his family. His father, James H. Mills brought his wife and daughter from somewhere in Kentucky to Missouri. There he had several other children. I have found them on the 1880 and 1900 census records for Ripley County, MO. Enoch was born in MO in January, 1882. I came across him in the 1900 census records for Columbia Twp, Randolph County, AR. He is listed as a boarder, 18 yrs. old and living with William R. Lacy and his family. I understand that Enoch taught writing in his home. He was also a farm laborer. From this point, I cannot find anything about him. Does anyone have any connections to this man? Would sure like to swap info, if so. Cindy (Stokes) Zadrozny in Michigan

Does anyone know where Frier, Ky. is? My great uncle was born there in 1889. Thank you, Charlotte
