I live in TN, I'm from NC and I had many ancestors who left Rowan Co. NC in the early 1800's to help settle territory and create prosperity for future Kentuckians. I don't have a representative in KY but if you will send me an email address for the person representing the Jackson Purchase area or counties I will be happy to send them a letter. Thank You for sending, Gerri Ann Hi, Gerri Ann, Sharon and fellow researchers, I am in the same position as Gerri Ann. I am from TN and I now live in TX, and I am very concerned about this bill HB 100, so today I went to the KY legislature website that Sharon sent to the KYCALLOW digest ... [Thank you, Sharon, for the "heads up" on this bill!] ... copied below: You can find your Senator at http://www.lrc.state.ky.us/whoswho/whoswho.htm Gerri Ann, I went down the list of Representatives and Senators and I sent an email to every Senator of every county in Kentucky that I have been doing research in, asking that they please vote against the HB 100 bill. Since I am not a constituent of any of the Senators, I chose to write to the ones who represent my counties of interest. I think I ended up sending only about six or seven letters because many of the Senators were representing multiple counties of interest to me, so I didn't have as many Senators to have to write to, and I just copied the letter and changed the Senators name accordingly. I hope it helps!! Nancy Sue
