Pat--I recently found a site which lets anyone access the KY birth/death records 1911-?. I did not know this was on-line. I have to believe that your Russell died prior to 1909 because there is simply not a Farmer who dies in any of the possible counties who would be of the correct age. I checked and double checked, looking for both the name Russell and also for the correct age and county in case he was known by his middle name. I am sorry, but there is no record. He remains a mystery! Shannon Pat Oxley wrote: > I am sending out this query in total frustration. All of my paternal roots > are located in Casey and Taylor County, KY.
