He sold a piece of property before he died, my GR GR GR Grandfather Charles Cavanah ( his eldest son who lived in Monroe Co., Illinois) signed his rights to the farm to his brother in law David Thomasson, they had all others sign at a later date and then had all sign it again after they found the court had made a mistake on the first. They are all listed on the same page in one of their first deed books. I made a copy of the page but it does not show the page number or book number. They were completed between 1819 and 1853 and one other Cavanaugh appears in the middle In Illinois they will make a copy for you for only $1.00 but I don't know about Hopkins Co., Ky. however they seamed very nice. Try Deed book #1 p23, book 12 p23, book 18 p407-409 and Book 17 p305-306. I hope this helps you and would like your information on your line if you find time and would like to share. Jerry Cavanah
