Hi Carter and Genie, Thanks for the Information on Bath County, KY. My GGrandfather John Daniel Purdue was b. there on 09 Dec. 1848. His parents Joseph "Archie" and Sarah Elizabeth Ocherman were married in Nicholas County, KY., 07 May 1844 and had a couple of children there before moving to Bath County. They then moved back to Nicholas county, and had several more children. GGGrandma Sarah was also born in Nicholas County. GGGrandpa Archie was b. in Fairfax County, VA. I sure do appreciate your telling me what towns are in Bath County.
