RESPONSE: Thank you, Bob. For you WALKERs and TAYLORS out there, John WALKER and Christopher WALKER, sons of the elder John WALKER of Knox Co., KY were in the War of 1812. My gg-grandfather, Cornelius Alexander TAYLOR served in the War of 1812. He later married Sarah Ann WALKER, dau. of Walter WALKER who was a brother to the older John WALKER of Knox Co. There were a number of other Knox Co. residents who also served in the War of 1812. Remember the next time you stand and sing "The Star Spangled Banner" by Frances Scott Keye that this song was a War of 1812 song. I think it is often confused with the Rev. War. A "salute" to our veterans everywhere!

Cassy, Since you've already been given several great map links, here's my methodology for finding cemeteries in an unfamiliar territory: 1. I know that in the places I've done research (mostly Ohio & Kentucky), the best bet is to stop in the courthouse & ask for a county map. Sometimes they'll direct you to the map department or roads department or whatever, but I've gotten some incredibly helpful, detailed maps with this method. 2. If there's a local historical or genealogical society, call ahead & see if they have a listing on the cemeteries you're looking for or a member who can help you search. 3. Find the local funeral homes & ask them for assistance. They...uh...- well, they know where the bodies are buried! 4. Check the local library/ libraries for older maps of the county. Ask the librarians where to eat lunch---- stay away from the chain restaurants--- tell them you want to eat where the local people eat. You'll get a great meal & then you can ask you waitress, the cook, the folks at the next table, etc, if they know where these cemeteries are, what landmarks to look for, etc. Have a great trip & drive safely! If I wasn't on jury duty I'd beg to tag along!
