You might wish to order that record from the court clerk at Pineville, Bell Co., KY. July 13, 1908 SAMS, Euell to SMITH, Nannie - Book 9, Page 124 It may well be that Dexter SAMS married in either Bell or Knox Co.'s. However, none of the transcribed or on line records I have or can view go up into the 1940's which was apparently when they married. On the KBI, I see: SAMS, Victor b. 2-19-1916 in Knox Co.; maiden name of mother: Nannie SMITH SAMS, Dexter b. 1-20-1911 in "Knott" Co. (it prob. was Knox Co. Sometimes the way the microfilm reads Knott and Knox look very much alike. Vol. 7, Cert 2608 I don't know if this is the same Victor SAMS or not; however, from the KDI: Victor SAMS died in Pulaski Co., KY on 2-16-1996 at Somerset at the age of 79 years, Vol. 11, Cert 5225 I am not a SAMS researcher but I do have some information in my data base because of some SAMS marriage connections to my WALKER, MERIDA family connections. I will send that to you. Joyce Taylor Collins La Palma, CA
