According to Forks of Elkhorn Church, by Ermina Jett Darnell, Milly Bohannon married Robert Knox in Franklin County, KY in 1817, then went to Gallatin County. Milly's father was Austin Bohannon. This might be a hint that Austin Knox was Robert's son, named after Milly's father. What do you think?

KY in early 1800's. Robert Knox (born 1758, Ireland) and his first wife, Elizabeth Gill, had come there from South Carolina. According to Bible records, they married in SC in 1784. It's said that Elizabeth died about 1809, and that Robert went back, in 1810, to South Carolina to 'settle her estate' . Robert died 1836 in Gallatin Co. KY. The oldest child of this marriage was James, b. 1785, in SC. He married, in Franklin Co. in 1805, Mary McCreary. Mary died in 1830 /31, according to church records of the Sharon Road Baptist Church, Carroll Co. KY. I am trying to find parents for Austin KNOX, b. 1810 KY. Austin in on the estate settlement for Robert's second wife, Millie Bohannon, d. 1860, in Gallatin Co. Is he the son of Robert, or of James.? I'm convinced it's one or the other. Would there be ANYONE on this list that would be searching either of these two families? I have lots of KNOX information on either side of 1810, willing to share.
