Dear Researchers of Greenup County, Kentucky, Particularly Linda of Tampa, A list member is seeking a town in Greenup County, Kentucky named "Hunnell". May I submit the suggestion that the sought-for town of "Hunnell" was actually Hunnewell, also known as Hunnewell Furnace? The community around Hunnewell Iron Furnace was a bustling village in the 1860's and 1870's. I extract from the work of the literary duo of Biggs and McCoy, in their description of the Hunnewell community. Before 1845, the farming settlements at what was later named Hunnewell and Cane Creek were small agrarian communities. But growth came with the building of an iron furnace there in 1845. In 1865, the Kentucky Improvement Company had built a railroad as far as Argillite Furnace, and by 1865 had extended the rails to Hunnewell. Hunnewell was named in honor of a Mr. HUNNELL, who was one of the members of the company that built the railroad. How the name became changed from Hunnell to Hunnewell no one knows. In 1870, Hunnewell had a population of 600, and Cane Creek was home to 200. The furnace days ended in 1886, when the last furnace in the Hunnewell area went out of blast. As for the location of Hunnewell in Greenup County, it is in the southern tip of the county, on Cane Creek, which flows into the Little Sandy River. Hunnewell is east of Oldtown, south of Palmyra, and about eleven miles south of the village of Greenup. Randal W. Cooper <rwcooper@kellnet.com> Lorain, Ohio

Hello Randal and all, Thanks so much for this clue. Does your source show the name of the Mr. Hunnell? Or give any indication of why they would name the Furnace after him? Which railroad was this? ~~~ The original reference to the names of the towns came from the following tornado warning post, which is dated in 1998; just last year. Thanks again for all the help everyone has given to me. ~~~ This is the text from the tornado warning post ~~~~~~ > TORNADO WARNING NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV 415 PM EDT SUN MAY 24 1998 THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN CHARLESTON HAS ISSUED A TORNADO WARNING EFFECTIVE UNTIL 445 PM EDT FOR PEOPLE IN THE FOLLOWING LOCATION......IN EAST KENTUCKY ...GREENUP COUNTY AT 414 PM...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RADAR DETECTED A TORNADO IN SOUTHERN GREENUP COUNTY KENTUCKY NEAR TUIGA.

I have found naming patterns a big help before the Civil War. By that time, there seemed to be a lot of naming fads, like the names of countries or cities. For regional variations in naming patterns, try The Seed of Albion by David Fisher. Connie

Hi, Does anyone have any of these people: Mose Cooper Lili Children Punk Wilbur Viola Floyd I don't have any dates right now, sorry Ed

Hi Linda, Warnock, KY can be found on any KY state map. It is located on Rt 7 due south of Portsmouth, OH (as the crow flies) about 10 miles. There are many Warnock families (married into the Craycraft line) in Greenup Co. census records. Dan Craycraft Hello all, My name is Linda and I have just joined your list. A couple of days ago while web surfing I came across a post mentioning some towns? in Greenup Co Ky. I can not seem to find these places on a map and hope someone can help me locate them. They are Tuiga, Oldtown, Hunnell, and Warnock. Are these indeed towns or places?

Hello list, Is there anyone out there with a Greenup Co. History who can tell me what churches were there 1810-1815? My ancestor, James Hasson died there 1812. His wife (name unknown) died in 1813. Am hoping for church record of deaths. Also, he was a medical doctor. What medical schools were there? Many thanks, Wendy

Hello all, My name is Linda and I have just joined your list. A couple of days ago while web surfing I came across a post mentioning some towns? in Greenup Co Ky. I can not seem to find these places on a map and hope someone can help me locate them. They are Tuiga, Oldtown, Hunnell, and Warnock. Are these indeed towns or places? If so, in which area of the county are they located? Do you know of a map on the web that show their locations? I assume they are probably just little crossroad places and not big towns. Right? ~~~ One of my ancestors from Virginia, Aaron Hunnel, is listed on the 1830 Morgan Co Ky census and I hope to link the town/area of Hunnell Ky to him. I do not know what happened to Aaron, but in 1850 his son Aaron Jr was in Scioto Co Ohio. ~~~ Thanks for any help that you an give me.
