Mary, I don't have a lot of Welch information. My grandfather was John L Welch....I am thinking he was born in Boyd Co ( Ashland) but not sure...i know they lived there and he died there. His father was William L. Welch..............Born 10/22/1868............. Greenup Co. KY but what I have found that is when i get information about family from one county...there is a liklihood that several counties may hold the answers i seek. Would love to share info as we find it. Nancy
