Surnames: HELTON, FOLEY, HUBBARD, GOLDEN, PARTIN, PARTON, Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CBB.2ACE/5175 Message Board Post: Morning List Family, well after having half of a longed for wish filled, by the help of a lovely lady that is on our list here, i now own the book ' BARBOURVILLE, LOOKING BACK,' now i'm in search for A PICTURE or PAINTING, that IS there in BARBOURVILLE, here is what i know of the painting, 1. IT HANGS IN A PUBLIC BUILDING s.e; LIBRARY, POST OFFICE, CITY HALL COURT HOUSE ??? exactly where i don't know but i know it is there, in Barbourville Ky, 2. in this picture is A COUPLE, and they are looking off ,(into the past or into the future,perhaps). and it was like a yesteryear picture,... i think, 3. this picture was always spoken of, when MICHAEL MILLS and his books were mentioned, hmm, actually before the book was ever mentioned i seem to remember, but i THINK, the name/title of this picture could be LOOKING BACK, A LOOK BACK, LOOKING FORWARD ???exact title unknown, but like i said it IS there is BARBOURVILLE,(somewhere) 4. the people in the picture are related to me,.... i am a HELTON, FOLEY, HUBBARD,GOLDEN and all the others that go into the HELTON lines there, and of course PARTON/PARTIN, so i think the ones in the picture would be of these blood lines, and there you have it, the OTHER HALF of my wish is to FIND THIS PICTURE-PAINTING-PHOTOGRAPH, and i'd like to have a copy of it, or a snapshot of it, why i'm not really sure, except all my life i've had a deep seeded hunger to KNOW MY PEOPLE there in KENTUCKY, being raised with a daddy who dearly loved and remembered HIS Kentucky, i grew up KNOWING 'about' kentucky and our people there, but never knowing the people themselves, my blood, my family there,until now, and so i NEED to know; WHERE that picture is,.... WHO was the artist, or owner of the picture ? WHAT IS THE PICTURE CALLED ? so my dears as you go about your daily lives, there in my daddys beloved Barborville, PLEASE keep an eye on the WALLS, of the public buildings you enter, and help me fulfill the rest of my heartfelt wish, i'm in your debt, in kinship, Deborah Dora Lee d/o JAY ESTEL PARTON/PARTIN gd/o DORA NETTIE HELTON,& JOHN PARTIN/PARTON of BARBOURVILLE,
