Researching Thomas Conway, b. probably VA ca 1775-1780, lived in Greene or Blount Co., TN ca 1790-1806, where Sarah Conway m. my ancestor Amos I. Goodman in 1801 (Surety Thomas Conway, probably her brother). He may have been the "Thomas Conway, a native of Virginia, a Baptist minister, who was accidentally killed in the construction of the canal at Louisville, Ky (in 1829)." (re: Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 2nd ed., 1885, Butler Co.). This family "may" be related to the prominent Conways of Fauquier Co., VA and later Greene Co., TN, but exactly how is uncertain. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sandi Gorin Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2011 7:42 AM To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Subject: [KYBARREN] WHO ARE YOU RESEARCHING? SURNAMES A THROUGH C Normally, I steer away from what is called roll calls. But, it has been a long time since I asked you to post the names you are researching in the south central KY and Barren Co area. To keep it organized (a little at least!) Send an e-mail to the list with the subject line: (COUNTY NAME), SURNAMES As an example - BARREN CO - GORIN, FRANKLIN In the body of the e-mail give as much information as you can such as: Seeking Gorin information in Barren, Warren County for the years 1798 to 1850. Particularly looking for John Gorin, settled Barren Co 1798; died same 1863 etc. etc.... From today through Sunday let's work on the surnames which begin with A through C. The counties covered by this list include: Adair, Allen, Barren, Cumberland, Edmonson, Hart, Metcalfe, Monroe and Warren Co primarily. Lastly, be willing to share information. If you see a post on the list that shows your surname and you have information, you may write them privately - and hopefully, you will post the information to the list also to help others. Remember that if you post to the SCKY list, no one on KYBARREN will see your post unless they are also subbed to that list or vice versa.
