I'm new to this list, and so I full of questions! Here's a Kentucky family related to me that settled in Linn, Kansas. I noticed reading some other Kentucky surnames that lived in Linn came from Morgan, Kentucky, so I know I'm on the right genealogical migration track for this Ellington family that I'm look. I know their children grew up in Linn, Kansas, because I have found them all through the census, but as soon as the girls reach marriageable age, I loose them....I've found that many of these girls were from age 10 to 13 of age when married off. I'd really appreciate it also if someone that knew more than I do, would tell me where I could write for help for finding more out about these folks as well. Sure am glad rootsweb has these lists because if they didn't, I'd be lost! If you see 'aft 1870, etc., my assumption is that the individual is still in the same place he/she was born...but I've lost them after that time and can't find them within the state and US census.
