For several years I have been searching 2 WOLF(E) lines in northcentral KY. Both lines had the same common first names, occupations, and places of residence. I assumed that there was a connection, but no one (not even the family experts who lived into their 90s knew. Sandra Burbridge of the KYGRANT list sent me some info on a Lewis WOLFE in one of her collateral lines. She warned me that there was an error but she didn't know where but it was enough to get me started thinking in a different way. We have a Lewis WOLFE on the paternal side m/ Melinda LEMONS and a Lewis WOLFE on the maternal side whose second wife was Lucinda ASBURY. I had never considered that his unknown first wife might be Melinda. That was the key. I found an interview in the Barton Papers by James WOLFE (eldest child of Lewis and Lucinda) who mentioned both of his father's wives and children from each marriage so I now know that the 2 Lewis WOLFE in my database are instead one person with 2 wives. Here is my info with my wish list on this line. Descendants of John Lewis Wolf Generation No. 1 1.
