Do you know anything about a CARTER family in Fayette or Mason Co about 1800, or before? I am especially interested in an Elizabeth CARTER b abt 1785, a Frances CARTER, and Dr. Joseph S. CARTER. They may, or, may not, be related , but they turn up in Champaign/Clark Co., OH about the same time. Info on any or all would be helpful. Ellen ellenmartin@exotrope.net

Am seeking information about the above organizations.Such as, where might I find rosters, information about personnel,point or organization,Headquarters etc. Any help appreciated. I finally found out that there was an actual territory named "The Territory of the US South of the OHIO". Also known as Southwest Territory. Also, who was Lt Walker, where was he from.

Folks, when dealing with early settlers, it's essential to know the maps and the boundaries of the various counties at each particular period of time. Since they changed areas fairly rapidly, and since often folks didn't move but the boundaries did, you need to know where each county was, when it shrank and other counties were formed from it, and what the migration routes were at that time. One book I've used many times is _An Atlas of Appalachian Trails to the Ohio River_ by Carrie Eldridge. It's a combination of maps, commentary and dates explaining the westward movement from the eastern states into Ohio, Ky and Tennessee. It also has the various flows of people, lists the forts along areas of the frontier during different wars and discusses which eastern states tended to settle which areas. This is one of those GOTTA HAVE books. You can get it by ordering it from Carrie Eldridge, 3118 CR 31, Chesapeake, Ohio 45619. I forget what it costs but it's under $20. Sue

Got a time period on this one?

Does anyone know who or what The Davidson County Rangers were. Does anyone know who and what Lieut Walkers Rangers were. Both are shown as for The territory South of The Ohio, so Iassume they were a band of Peace keepers or Indian Fighters due the time period. I am seeking information on a George NUTTERFIELD who signed on as a private in 1792. Where were they formed? Where did they recruit. I do know that George settled in Shelby Co, Ky as early as 1790. I am seeking any information. George is shown on FTM records as Revolutionary War 1780-1789, but, the only record I have, so far is with the 2 above units. I asume that the Davidson County referred is Davidson County Tn, as I dont know of another at that time. Or, it could have been the home of Lt Walker. I have tried Ky archives and Nashville archives, But, my experience is very Limited on records like these, so I probably didnt do it right.I have been seeking info on George for about 30 years, so, naturally, I would be thrilled and appreciative for any info.George is also shown as George NUTTERFEE/NUTTER, on various records, and married Nancy Stepp McWilliams June 1804 in Shelby Co Ky.

I am trying to find information regarding my husband's family. I can trace him back to Thomas DOWNING who married Sarah HARDESTY in Fayette County, KY, Dec. 24, 1849, and later moved to Mclean County, IL. Their children were Sarah, John, Desdamona, Samuel, Marcus, Charlie,Wm., Milton, and Jessie. Bondsman at Thos. and Sarah's wedding was Salem Downing.Could he have been Thomas' father? I can trace Salem back to the Francis Downing who married Susannah in Maryland, moved to Fayette County, KY and died there in 1814. Any help in learning about any member of this family would be much appreciated. Karen Downing ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET!

You're going to hear this a lot: Fayette Co., KY wasn't formed until 1780. It was still part of the State of Virginia. So John Watts & Fannie Sebree were probably born in Fayette Co., VA. Happy huntin' ~Virginia << Hi all. My name is Helen and I am just starting to do genealogy. I signed up for KYFayette because I have WATTS and SEBREE surnames who were born in Fayette Co, Kentucky. They are both in my direct line. I will share what little I have and would be very excited if I found a distant cousin or relative out there. All the information I have is still subject to verification. Elizabeth Watts : born May 4,l792 in Fayette Co, Kentucky. Married Jordon Rice on Feb. 28,18ll in Bullitsburg Baptist Church.(probably in Indiana). Elizabeth died Feb. l5,1873 in Ripley Co, Indiana. John Watts: born about 1766 in Fayette Co, Ky. was Elizabeth Watts father. John Watts married Fannie Sebree. Fannie Sebree: born around 1770 in Fayette Co, Ky. Her father was John Sebree who married Mildred Johnson. This is all I have for Fayette County Ky. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Helen, in California. >>
