    1. Re: [KYKNOX] Marriage Record -- Robert H. Lewis and Elizabeth Logan
    2. RESPONSE: Hello, I have checked my marriage books for Laurel Co., Knox Co. and Pulaski Co. and did not locate a marriage record for them. They "seem" to appear on both the 1850 and 1860 Laurel Co., KY Fed. Census. There is a BIG problem, however. This is NOT my family so I am simply passing on the information that is shown on the annotated census book transcribed by the Laurel Co. Hist. Society. They do NOT show your Elizabeth as a LOGAN. They show her as a DURHAM. Here is what I find: 1850 Laurel co., KY Dwelling 252 LEWIS, Robert H., 49, b. KY . .Elizabeth (DURHAM), 42, b. KY (d/o Wm. and Catherine DURHAM) . .James E., 24, b. KY (d. 19 Jan 1852 per Laurel Co. vital stats) . .Wm. M., 21, b. KY (d. 15 Mar 1853 per Laurel Co. vital stats) . .Nancy J., 19, b. KY . .B. H., 18, male, b. KY . . M. Ann, 17, b. KY (mar. 28 Sep 1853 in Laurel Co. to Moses POINTS; d. 19 May 1856) . .Lydia, 15, b. KY . .John R., 13, b. KY (mar. 7 Feb 1856 in Laurel Co. to Melvina COX) . .Milton, 11, b. KY . .Elizabeth, 9, b. KY (mar. 24 Dec 1855 in Laurel Co. to Wm. G. WISOR) . .Samuel, 7, b. KY . .C. B., 5, male, b. KY . .Jesse, 3, male, b. KY 1860 Laurel Co., KY Dwelling 825-772 LEWIS, Robert, 59, b. KY - farmer . .Elizabeth, 51, b. KY . .Lyddia, 25, b. KY . .Milton G., 22, b. KY - farmer . .Samuel L., 18, b. KY . .Charles B., 14, b. KY . .Jesse A., 12, male, b. KY . .David N., 9, b.
