Hi List, My grandmother Susie Carter McKigney (born KY) married Albert Chauncy Gale (born in ILL) in 4-1932 Chicago. I've found a picture of a little girl stating her name is Loretta Ellen Gale, born March 15th, 1937. I was wondering if this girl is a lost relative that Grandmother never mentioned. I can't find her in Ill or Ky. I know that in 1937 Grandmother was still in Ky living in Frankfort and married to Albert. Thanks Marie --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I a writing 3 email lists, as this is relevant here... First, KENTUCKY-L: Thanks so much for your very kind listers and assistance in helping me find the census information I needed so much. Second, I post to both KYOLDHAM-L and to KYJEFFER-L because of Sherman WEATHERLY... Sherman WEATHERLY was in Jefferson County, Kentucky in 1900, living in a boarding house, but not married. In 1910, he is found in Oldham County, married, to a Cora J. or Cory J. or Corey J. Unknown. In 1910, the parents may have been with them. Their name was JAROSY or something like that - I can't make the name out! The image I have is too small, though I think that will be rectified soon. If you are familiar with this Sherman WEATHERLY, and his wife, or any of the immediate family (he died 1947), please contact me. Thank you! Vince Summers

Hi, I seek only one surname in Kentucky, and census would really be great to obtain on it. I joined the KY-CENSUS-L Rootsweb list, but there seems to be no posting there. I did join the Jefferson County list, also, but again, there seems to be no census activity. Now I was really pleased at the death certificate opportunities in Kentucky! Fantastic. I have quickly jumped on the bandwagon of enthusiasm in seeking lookups that I could pay for (I have very limited funds to put it mildly), since a volunteer only asked a buck apiece. This is unheard of in other areas... But I am a bit disappointed in the matter of census. Does anyone on this list know of anyone that has CDs for KY that would be willing to do a lookup for any of these years? 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930. Thanks, Vince Summers

You didn't say who, where or when you were looking for someone. I would be willing to look on ancestry.com for you; however, I need the names, approx ages, and places. Lois in Auburn, CA

Looking for information on Jesse SUMMERS, bn pos. abt 1765 prob. Maryland died in Kentucky. He was married to a Rachel who? They signed their son Greenberry SUMMERS marriage certificate 15 Apr 1816 Washington County KY. I believe they also had a son by the name of Jesse, and I believe that Greenberry was named after Colonel Nicholas GREENBERRY. Have not been able to find a connection to the Greenberry family.

I have added alot more death certificates and obituaries to my website, please check it out. If you know anything about the people in them, please let me know. I will be adding alot more to it, it is just a slow process that takes many hours. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~charlotteamiller/index.html Thanks, Charlotte Miller My Family & Genealogy Group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FamilyandMore My Poems and Stories Site: http://www.geocities.com/charlotte7274/index.html List manager of SEIGLER mailing lists on Rootsweb.

This genealogy poem is my gift to everyone for Mother's Day. I think many of you will be able to relate to it. (My poetry has been published in 47 US States, and several other countries. ) My Poetry Website: http://users.rosenet.net/poetryandroses/ (This remains one of my favorite poems) MY ANCESTOR GRAND MOTHER I search for you yet do not even know your name I press on praying my efforts will prove fruitful the records do not list you or the other women who have lived and loved and laughed, gave birth, and died, the records perpetrate the myth that you were never here but I stand whole and bare my soul and vow to find you as I live I search for you in old records, in churches, at the Embassy, in small dimly lit rooms in the back of obscure libraries and archives and pour over barely readable handwritten ledgers with magnifying glass and flashlight I live on mainly toast these days there isn't time for meals or much sleep feeling as I always do, on the very brink of discovery Perhaps THIS will be the day I find the one seemingly insignificant clue, which will lead me to you although I did not find you listed in the Census Records I am not deterred, you may turn up yet, on an Immigration or Naturalization list somewhere perhaps, or maybe tucked away inside some bank of vital statistics, long forgotten like so many others, your name having become lost over the long years Your name could be lying even now amidst the millions of documents stored and locked away safeguarded in the bowels of a giant warehouse all stopped up from apathetic crowds who have long ceased their visits your precious name, lying just inside a myriad of records packed in tight, packed in to stay never guessing I would come @Sarah Elizabeth Rose srose@rosenet.net
