    1. [KYHENDER] Negley Family of Henderson Co., KY
    2. _okcphyl@cox.net_ (mailto:okcphyl@cox.net) has given a long list of surnames of Henderson Co. This is an attempt to address one family which is listed: Response: I am not familiar with most of the names you posted in your LONG query, which gave few dates unfortunately. Queries get better responses if some dates are given and some background of what searches have already been made. I may be able to tell you something of the Negley family but only because a distant cousin Floyd R. Negley (now deceased) and I discovered that his Negley ancestress, Nancy Williams, a daughter of Samuel F. Williams (b. ca 1759 in Granville Co., NC-d ca 1830s [exact date unk] in or near Henderson Co.) was the first wife of George Negley. Apparently they had been married in Christian Co., KY. Negley, of course, is found later in Henderson Co., KY. I purchased from Floyd one of several volumes on the Negley family, who were originally from Pennsylvania. I will 1) have to locate that family history somewhere in this genealogist's cluttered room and 2) know some more about one Charles Negley, as that particular name does not ring a bell with me. Tell me more about Charles Negley. Are you able to access the online genealogical database called HeritageQuest through your local public library? If so, perhaps you could find a census giving some more information about each of the persons you list. There are too many for me to tackle. Most of the time, HQ is accessible on remote computers to those who have a card number from a subscribing library. If your local library does not subscribe, ask your librarian what nearby libraries do subscribe. Then ask whether you can get a library card from the subscribing library. E.W.Wallace
