It seems I missed the email that came in on Oct 1, 2005 about the nice job that was done on the 1810 Census by Don Rubarts. It was so great that he has transcribed the 1810 Fayette County Kentucky census. I checked this out as I was searching for my husband's ggggrandfather John Himes who was in Fayette Co, KY from about 1789 to about 1808. Of course, I did not find him on the census, but I was checking just to be sure. Is it possible that the 1800 census has also been transcribed? If so, please let me know. Also perhaps someone might be able to give me a clue. John Himes was born 10-12-1763 in York Co, PA and migrated to Fayette Co, KY. His first son, Samuel was born in Fayette Co, KY in 1789 and he had several more by 1808 before he moved on to Washington Co, OH. I have no idea if he had purchased land during those years. One of my problems is that I am trying to find out the name of his wife. He had a total of 8 children, and there is no record of her name. I realize that only names of heads of families were listed on the census, but would anyone know if there was any other kind of record, such as taxes or whatever that would have included the name of his wife. I do not know if he married in York Co, PA or met and married in Fayette Co, KY. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
