    1. [KYCARROL] Carroll County families
    2. Ronda Howard
    3. Hello, Are any of you familiar with the families that lived in Carroll County around 1885? My husband's grandfather was born in Kentucky between 1884 - 1886. He was a forger. I have found four names for him. In 1903 he was Edward Barrett. Much of the time he was Charles Howard. In 1919 he was James Harris. In 1928 he was Robert Williams. I have prison records from 1908 to 1928, Washington to California, as well as a letter between sheriff offices confirming identity. We have done a DNA test and so far all 9 matches have some form of the name Lockridge. He abandoned his family before his son (my Father-in-law) was born. The family story was that he was an alcoholic and ran off to Carrollton. He was actually in the Oregon State Penitentiary. From an intake form, I know that he had parents, siblings, went to church before he left home but not after, and started smoking and drinking when he was age 10. Do you know of any Barretts, Howards, Harris', Williams or Lockridges in Carroll County? Are you missing a man born around 1885 out of your family tree? Every now and then I toss out this fishing line and hope someone has seen something. Have a great day, Ronda Howard
