My Grandmother Lottie Shearer Underwood's family was in Jessamine for a I'm not sure how long actually. I know they lived on a river boat there. Her Fathers name is Eliga Shearer and mother was Mary Parker. I do know they eventually moved to Ohio.I am beating my head on a wall for her side of the family. Eliga's father was Jas Shearer and mother was Mary Halten. Eliga was born in Jessimine county Sept 18,1880. Mary Died when Eliga was 3 and he was sent to live with Barriman Sewel (Not sure on the spelling of his first name) He is supposed to have had 2 brothers one's name is Ike, no clue on the other name. Any help would be greatly appreciated as all I have is what a few family members could come up with. Thanks Teresa
Does anyone know how i can obtain adoption records from the late 1800's in Jessamine county Thanks Teresa
