After posting last msg I found the explanation for the problem and see my first msg wasn't posted anyway, so I wasted an apology.. Tony Howard

If others on the list received my earlier msg in the same format as what I got back, I owe an apology to all. Don't have a clue as to why it turned out that way. It was supposed to have a .jpg photo attached showing the First Communion Class of St Mary Church in May of 1918. Tony Howard

Hi Ann, I have a book on the Livers family written by a Catholic nun, Sister Mary Louise Donnelly. She gives some very good documentation from Catholic records. The Head family married into the Livers clan at one time. If you would like me to check on a name for you - send it along. Happy hunting - Lona

Ann, I have a book that lists baptism records for that church. There are TONS of listings for the Head family. Can you be more specific on which family members you're looking for?

The matter is far from settled. She is believed to have been born in the early-mid 1780's and married in Kentucky in 1806. In that time frame the only records of children were usually Family Bible records or the baptismal records of a church or minister, if the child belonged to a family which belonged to a church which baptized infants. At some point her family, parents or other relatives, went to Kentucky. Families who were friends or relatives traveled together in those days. Perhaps some one very familiar with early Kentucky settlement might be able to find the travel group with which she came and thus learn the origins of the group and her probable parentage. On the other hand, there is the story that Abraham Lincoln was not the biological son of Thomas Lincoln and Nancy Hanks. If that were so, the above two paragraphs are not relevant. Since both possibilities involve western NC, Mecklenburg, Lincoln or Rutherford Counties, if not old Rowan, the matter may be of interest to the list.

I heard recently that Ava Gardner, Tom Hanks, Mickey Gilley, Jimmy Swaggert, and Jerry Lee Lewis are all related to Abraham Lincoln through his mother, Nancy Hanks. Can anyone confirm this? Cookie, a Hoosier in Florida << GreystokeB@aol.com >>

Hi Richard, I checked the Saint Lawrence Catholic Church Baptismal Records for Daviess County, KY. It essentially covers the period from 1824 through 1910. There were no entries for Nutterfee/Nutterfield, or Pittman. The only entries for Carter are: 1. Apr 21, 1839: I baptized Elizabeth Mary [Carter] born Jan 10 [1839] of Richard Carter and Elizabeth Beavin. Godmother Martha Beavin. [Baptized by] J.C. Wathen. 2. Oct 04, 1840: I baptized Modesta Joanna [Carter] born July 17 [1840] of Richard Carter and Elizabeth Beavin. Godmother Martha Beavin. [Baptized by] J.C. Wathen.

Richard.......... Daviess County was formed from the northern part of Ohio County in 1815. Jim Winkler jgwink@attbi.com

Can anyone tell me from what county Davies was formed in 1815... Also, seeking information on a John CARTER Jr., born 1-1-1813, married to Eliza NUTTERFEE/NUTTERFIELD, or Possibly Eliza PITTMAN. About 1830-1834.... Very probably in DAVIES Co. Thanks, Dick Carter rcar37@prodigy.net

There was the Red Banks Trace that connected Henderson-Evansville (and went north in IN, and began south of Henderson). Also, the Yellow Banks Trace that did the same for Owensboro and Rockport (parts of it are IN 231). A major connector was the National Road (went from the east (MD) to Vandelia, IL (through Indianapolis)-- it became I 40 because it primarily followed the 40th parallel. Also another way into IN was to boat down the OH from Pittsburgh, get off at New Albany and follow the old Buffalo Trace which now is parts of state road 150. The Buffalo Trace (or Harrison's Trace as it also was called) connected New Albany, Paoli, touched the northern portion of Dubois Co and went to Vincennes. Many of Germans who came into Dubois County (my county) did leave Pittsburgh, boated down the Ohio River, and either got off at New Albany and took the Buffalo Trace or they continued on to Troy, IN, and took the Kundek Trail which connected Troy, Fulda, Ferdinand, and Jasper (much of 162). Many areas along the Ohio River had large German speaking settlements from 1840-1860-- Cincinnati, Louisville, Dubois County, Evansville (the Lamasco area on the west side of Evansville). Basically, the quickest and easiest route into the mid-west is what these early settlers took-- if a road was good (that was it) but generally is was water transportation. Roads were iffy-- then tended to wash out, or become impassible, plus there were very few bridges, so you had to ford a stream. So much for the "good old days". I prefer the automobile or airplane.

My MARKLAND's originated in Maryland. One brother went to Muddy Creek in Rowan County near the start of the Revolution and the other, Jonathan, with his family went to what is now Washington county, PA and Wheeling, West Virginia. After the Revolution Jonathan's family, minus two sons, went down the Ohio and settled in what is now Boone county, KY (Jonathan is the first will in the Boone County Will Book 1, dated about 1801 (going my memory here)). Mathew's sons stayed past his death in Rowan until the early 1800's and then most of his family moved on to around Boone county, KY. The two branches reunited briefly, then most crossed the river, some settling in Hamilton county, OH and others going a short distance west to settle Switzerland county, IN. One family went straight west and into MO. So to cut to the chase, the Ohio was a major transportation artery for emigrants from PA, MD, western VA, etc. Overland was the chief means of getting there for lower VA, NC, SC, etc. Having made the last statement, I am not excluding the ones who took the river routes up to Nashville and vicinity and maybe as far as the Ohio to western KY and over the Mississippi to Missouri. Myrna, what surnames do you have in Switzerland county?
