Hi Yvonne, Thank You for the help. I hope you don't mind more ?'s. I had hope to connect Lewis parents , but I show no record of them either. I have 4 different sets of Morris's which are drivin' me Crazy. One bunch settled in Breathitt, then the others went to Clay, Owsley & Jackson Co's in KY. I show Lewis as having a brother named John Logan Morris , I show No other imfo on him. Could this Anthony be connected to the Elias & Rebecca Morris in Breathitt Co in 1850 Census??? Or could Anthony be related to Wesley & Cynthia Davidson Morris out of Breathitt?? I have to MANY left over Morris 's & NO where to go with them. Help!!!

Below came this morning from Rootsweb Review newsletter and I thought it important to pass along. Kathy * * * New Bill Will Close Records to Genealogists HR10, which was mentioned in the 13 October issue of RootsWeb Review, has passed out of the U.S. House of Representatives and is now part of S.2845. The amendments suggested by David Rencher in his letter to the bill's sponsor, Congressman J. Dennis Hastert, were NOT incorporated into this legislation. Thus, the terms of HR10 will now be considered by the Senate, as part of S.2845. If S.2845 becomes law, as now written, family historians will face some real challenges in attempts to obtain birth records, even on long- deceased individuals. Specifically, what genealogists need to do is suggest to their lawmakers the addition of Sec. 3061(b)(1)(A)(iii) that would read: "who is alive on the date that access to their birth certificate is requested." This addition would clarify that the legislation (soon to be law) applies ONLY to birth certificates of CURRENTLY LIVING PERSONS. If you do not know your U.S. Senator's e-mail address, you can find it at http://www.senate.gov/ This bill can be found online at http://thomas.loc.gov/ Put in S.2845 (in the bill number window) and then select item No. 3; and go to Subtitle B--Identity Management Security; Chapter 2--Improved Security for Birth Certificates.

That is the truth. Please back up. I forgot to backup and my file corrupted and I lost everything that I had done from August 8 until last week. Now I get to read the papers again from 1949-1952!!!

I was sent something a couple of years ago about the shootings of Elkanah and Gearge Smith. I've lost it and can'tremember who sent it. I've also been looking for an obit forJohn or Johnnie Smith around Breathitt Co in the mid 50's. I know that one wouldprobablebealittlehard to find, but mabey someone will run across it.

Sherry, I checked all of the Breathitt County Criminal Cases from 1839-1867 and no listings for any one named Reese, Reise, Riese, Reace, or anything near that appeared. We are missing one book from 1862-1864 that was destroyed in the 1930s but that does not fit the time frame that you gave me. Other than that the case must have never been called here in Breathitt County. Sorry, Stephen D. Bowling

After recently uploading new files to my website, it has come to my attention that the search engine there was not picking up certain names. I've re-indexed the site and it should be working ok now. Some of you may want to pay another visit and try again :-) Happy Hunting! Kathleen Couch Latshaw Kentucky Couch Kin http://swapasource.com

Hi Velma, Writing you to let you know we are forming a non-profit corporation that will be based somewhere near Manchester, Ky. The corporation will be set up to research and fund various projects related to Colonel Ben Caudill. But the corporation is broad enough to include all family lines related or corrected to Caudill. I would like to ask you, since I know you travel to Ky if you would be interested in serving on the Advisory Board of this corporation. If you are, I can send you a packet of information on what we have done so far. We hope to have the corporation up and running by early April. Hope to hear from you soon.

Elsberry Trusty, s/o Angeline Wages and Linzy Trusty, married Othena Roark, d/o Elizabeth Roark, on 12 Jul 1905 in Breathitt Co. In 1910 Othena is shown with an Asbury Hammons. In 1920 and 1930 he is shown as Elsberry Hammons. Othena died in 1938 and is buried in the Roark Cemetery at Noctor in Breathitt Co. Elsberry died in 1979 in Pike Co. KY at the ripe old age of 94. He is also buried at Noctor. Did Elsberry Trusty change his name to Hammons/Hammonds or are they two different people. Any info appreciated!

Darrell, Please contact me directly concerning a small issue with the archive pages. Thanks, Stephen D. Bowling Director, Breathitt County Public Library library@tgtel.com

Hi Lynda, If you would like to do them on one page do not use the automated forms. Create a .txt file and e-mail it to me and I will add it to the page that way. I also recieved a message saying some of your e-mails were being bounced back due to a spam blocked. I do not use a spam blocker. The problem would be with your domain name and road runner. I know that this is not the correct format to be trying to figure out this problem but if you had a message come back I would like to see what it said in order to figure the problem out. If you could send it through the list for me to see.

Hi Linda, Geneva's information was also submitted to the KY Footsteps mailing list. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ky/ky-footsteps/toc.html I am allowed to snag any information submitted at the KY Footsteps mailing list and post to the archives. Ky Footsteps and the archives are sister projects. I am in the process of going through the KY Footsteps archives and getting the info submitted that pertains to Breathitt county posted to the archives. If you still have the marriage information you spoke of, I would love to have you submit it to the archives for everyone to see. You will find the submission forms at http://www.genrecords.org/kyfiles/index.html If you have any concerns or questions please feel free to e-mail me directly.
