I was trying to send out an e-mail to you all and it disappeared. If you got a start of a post from me - ignore it - I give up on using this laptop and a web based e-mail program I'm not used to. I was saying that while my computer is in the shop and my records unavailable, I just spent 3 days in Frankfort, KY researching at the KY Department of Libraries & Archives (KDLA) and the KY Historical Society. If you ever get a chance to go to the KDLA, you're in for a treat. This is the agency responsible for caring for all the old original records from all the counties in KY, primarily on microfilm. Researchers can call for the original documents such as old Circuit Court records, etc. The staff there is fantastic! They also have a library and I spent a lot of time going through books where I found some goodies on Barren Co and the other counties on this list. When I get my computer back, I'll be sharing. The KY Historical Society is in beautiful facilities and have thousands of books and vertical files, not only for KY but other states also. So, hang in with me a while longer until I find out the status of my computer! Sandi
