Hello, I tried to send this to the man Jerry Hall who has her stone under cemeteries but the email addresses were no longer valid. Does anyone know of him? Please email me ecaldwell33@charter.net I just looked at the Leslie site for the first time in a long time. I saw cemeteries and went there then saw Fanny Hall. Please tell me if this is the same Fanny Hall that married James Hall and whose mother was Catherine Saylor Napier Caldwell wife of Jacob Caldwell. This are my grandparents and Fanny would be a 1/2 first cousin I believe. I think her father was a James Napier and I have been looking for proof of who Catherine Saylor's parent were for 7 years. My dad was Sims Caldwell orphaned in 1914 in Leslie Co. after his mother Catherine died during childbirth of Daniel Caldwell Houts. I spent most of my life off and on looking for my fathers family then found them in 2001. I haven't been doing much lately but when I saw your name and Fanny's I thought I would try again. Sincerely, Elizabeth Caldwell

Folks, despite some of the continuing obit bad news, our lives are made up of marriages, births, and indeed death. All historical important events in each of our lives. It is now Spring of 2009 despite the lingering WINTER all across the USA it is time for a new ROLL CALL for our members to reach out and tell us all what genealogy roadblocks you have in your research. Often our members see my references to Pioneer James T Lewis and his descents. There are so many cousins from various surnames under LEWIS that I will list some of the persons related back from the early years of Statehood of Kentucky in 1792: James T. Lewis 1735 Wales - 1825 Cutshin, KY (surnames not in Alphabetical order) Surnames into his descents: > Griffon or Griffen or Griffith > Shepherd > Wells > Kilburn > Couch > Dent > Sneathen > Moore > Spurlock > Bowling > Bolling > McIntosh > Duff > Henson > Strong > Pennington > Morgan > Turner > Adkins > Skaggs > Stidham > Branham > Wooton > Wooten > Vanover > Feltner > Wilson > Smith > Miniard > Maggard > Roark > Weaver > Baker > Kelly > Davidson > Templeton > France > Joseph > McDaniel > Hendrix > Ford > Muncey > Muncy > Robinson > Collins > Begley > Eversole > Williams > Sizemore > Howard > Garrard, AND, the above just get us thru his immediate children relations of those early years when Leslie County was still a part of CLAY County. The late Author Wm. G. O'Connor was quite correct about bloodlines as "Dozens of Cousins" of Southeastern Kentucky.
