I have no proof of that. I think it was in 1885. Leander was a brother to my ancestor, Abraham SKIDMORE.

Hi Listers; My name is Abe Taylor. My father was Silas Taylor son of Lee Taylor/Brock, b. 6 Aug 1882 in Leslie County, KY. Lee's father was Hiram Brock, b. 1 Jan 1850. Lee's mother was Sena Jane Taylor, b. 17 Dec 1851, she and Hiram were never married. I believe Sena's father was William J Taylor, b. 4 Sept 1819 and died 1896 in Laurel County, KY. I believe Sena's mother was Agnes Drucilla Saylor, b. 27 Oct 1820 and died in Harlan County, KY about 1900. I would like to correspond with anyone with information on the parents of William J Taylor and Agnes Drucilla Saylor Please email me at _ATaylor881@AOL.Com_ (mailto:ATaylor881@AOL.Com) unless you think the information might help others. I gladly share what I have. Thanks. Abe.

Elva, thanks for sharing! I have an interest in old newspapers as well, I enjoy reading all the old stories and history. I have a few old newspaper stories online if anyone is interested, copy and paste the link below. Jean Peppers http://www.jeanhounshellpeppers.com/Newspaper_Articles_From_1800s_1900s.htm

I am researching Howard, Johnson, Blevins, Roark, Parsons and others but here is my brick wall. In 1840 census is Charlotte Johnson living alone, but she lives right next door to Rice Whitaker Johnson and his wife, Phoebe Cumile Howard. Charlotte is under 20 yrs old. Rice and Phoebe are between 20 and thirty. I figure he is in his early 20s and Charlotte is probably his sister. Some of the family believes she may be a daughter of Martin Saylor and married a Johnson but the only trace I ever find of a husband for her is that one of her sons (Phillip) listed his father as Isaac Johnson on one of his marriage licenses. I don't think so. Anyway, Charlotte had Sylvania abt 1844, Nancy M. b.abt 1845 m Silas Woodson Saylor (1837-1920) Robert L. b. abt 1849 m. Rutha Jackson (1849-1923) Phillip b. abt 1851- d after 1922 Perry b. abt 1855 (he moved to Whitley Co with the Duane Leforce family before he was even 10 yrs old) Carolina b. abt 1858 Richard Mack (1861-1935) On Richard Mack Johnson's death certificate the parents are listed as Philip Slusher and 'Scotty' Johnson. This would be Philip Slusher (b 1827. s/o John & Mary Woolum Slusher & h/o Rachel Daniel). I suspect that he is the father of Charlotte's last 4 children and maybe all of them. The last time I can find Charlotte is in the 1870 Harlan census with Robert, Phillip (Johnson), Carolina & Richard. Philip Slusher moved to MO with his wife. I wonder if Charlotte moved there also. So where is she buried? Who were her parents? Was she RW's sister? Was she ever married? Did Philip Slusher go to MO to get away from her? Did she follow him/did he take her willingly? Well Elva, you did ask about brick walls! Joyce Shannon Zandri

Otto: 1000 is a very conservative estimate for Deputy Sheriffs in Harlan, I believe under Sheriff Middleton, it jumped to over 600 for the years 1934- 1935. I will try and post some that I have compiled from court records.Got to get my typing cap on and typing is not one of my talents. Slow as molasses. Thanks Elva
