RESPONSE: From the Knox Co. Marriage Book "B" transcribed and sold by the Knox Co. Gen. Society : July 24, 1853 BYARLEY, Wm. (William) to Lydia HARRISON Mar. by: Jessee LOGAN Wit: William R. DISNEY and H. P. MARTIN September 29, 1860 BYERLY, Eady to David HUBBARD Mar. by: A. TINSLEY; at: House of William NUMAN Wit: William NUMAN and William N. TINSLEY and others NOTE: There is ONE BARLEY family listed as follows in the transcribed 1860 Knox Co.; however, I have figured out that this is a miss-read and that the name should be BAILEY: Dwelling 595 BARLEY, Allis, 25, KY (this should be Ellis BAILEY) . . Mary, 27, KY . . James, 4, KY . . Thomas, 1, KY Joyce Taylor Collins La Palma, CA Message text written by INTERNET:KYKNOX-L@rootsweb.com >I am researching the surname BARLEY in this area of KY and NE TN. I note the spelling BYARLEY and of course this could have been BARLEY or BARLEY could be Byrley. If anyone has a marriage book for KNOX County, could you please do a lookup for BARLEY or variant spellings in the 1850 and 1860's? Thank you very much. Doyle King deking45@aol.com <
