Dear Mark Hovila and Other Greenup County, Kentucky Researchers, Mark, your ancestor Benjamin Franklin BARNEY was a brother of Squire BARNEY. With their older brother Thomas Marion BARNEY they made up the "Barney Triumvirate" of Greenup County, Kentucky from about 1819 on. According to Biggs and McCoy, they settled on Tygart and Schultz Creeks in Greenup County. These three brothers were sons of John BARNEY, our mutual ancestor. John BARNEY entered Greenup County about 1818 or so. He came from western Pennsylvania, and before that from Maryland. Randal W. Cooper <rwcooper@kellnet.com> Lorain, Ohio
