I realize that many researchers subscribe to multiple lists and probably don't want to receive more than one copy of the same message; however, I'm trying to reach as wide an audience of Kentucky historians and genealogists as possible so please bear with me. We are actively engaged in digitizing scarce and out-of-print 19th century map and atlas data for use in genealogical and historical research of this period of Kentucky's history. Each month we receive a number of requests for specific material; either individual maps of a specific region or county atlases from a specific period. Until now, there has been no urgency to document requests for material, and the requests have been handled more or less piecemeal. With this in mind, the short questionnaire below was developed. If you are interested in hard to find research material that is configured for compatible access from your computer, please take a couple of minutes to respond to the five questions below by e-mailing me directly off-list. [email protected] Again, thank you for your time and cooperation. 1.) What features are you most interested in when using 19th century atlases and maps in your research? Land owners? Industrial or Commercial site locations? Place names? Transportation routes? 2.) What statistical and historical atlas data do you find most useful in your research? Population? Agriculture? Geological Data? County Histories? Biographical Sketches? Illustrations of People and Places? 3.) What specific region or regions of Kentucky are you most interested in? Please list all counties of interest and any specific material you would like to have computer access to. Include any known bibliographic references. 4.) For general material listed in question 3, please provide the periods of time or date ranges of interest. Again, for specific requests please provide bibliographic reference. 5.) When using research material that has been formatted for computer access, which is the most important: Resolution and detail of the images for printing? Speed of loading and access? Thank you for taking the time to reply to this questionnaire. [email protected] We value the input of folks who ultimately will use research material that has been configured for use electronically. Your comments, suggestions and requests for material will be recorded and prioritized, and will influence the kinds of material we continue to make available for researchers such as yourselves.

Hi all researchers, Just recently I have discovered that a Duel between Andrew Jackson and Charles Dickinson occurred in Logan Co. in 1806. Charles Dickinson was the brother of Rebecca Daffin of Md. Charles Dickinson met Andrew Jackson when he stayed at the Daffin home on occassions in Maryland. Thery were friends at first with Charles going to Tennessee where they both had an interest in horse breeding and horse racing I understand. I understand that there is actually a Ky. Historical marker at the location where the duel occurred. It happened on the Jeff Burr Farm in or near Adairville. I know where Adairville is from maps, but does anybody know the exact location of the marker or the Burr Farm? Are there any photos, etc out there of this place? I am a Daffin family researcher and a story of this Duel is at http:// www.daffin.org/TheDuel. This online story mentions Harrison's Mills as the location. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

According to all documentation, including my grgrandfather's military pension, my grgrandmother lived and died in Logan County (Russellville). Her death date is listed as June 11, 1918. Why can I not find a death certificate for her? She was living with her daughter at time of death. Eliza A Epley, deceased, living with her daughter, Maggie Clark. We know that she is buried in Maple Grove Cemetery, along with husband, Samuel J Epley. We also have pix of the gravestones. We know that she was buried from Harrison & House Funeral Directors & Furniture Dealers (? not to lol)(its on the receipt) Thanks for any help on this.

I think it's fixed now and there should be no problem. So I see Eleanor Susanna died before her father's will, and this was why she wasn't in it. I believe you said you were sending something that would document that. (We kin of Jabez don't need to present it to anybody but think we should have it in our file.) Now I'll try to find out about the others' DODs, but it's sounding more like all the children were deceased by the time Peyton Harrison died except for Robert and Louisa/Louise. Jabez Harrison doesn't really seem to belong, but I'll send you the obit that was transcribed for us showing Peyton as his father. Elinore

Strange. Anyway, I'll just paste the e-mail correspondence that you missed below: Pat, I'll try e-mailing you again, pasting the previous (failed) message here, and hope I just typed your address wrong last time. I've since heard from Judy Lyne in response to the below message. I'll put her response at the bottom of the other message. (Hope I'm being clear.) Written 6/6/05: Judy, thanks for giving me an address where I can e-mail you as the representative of the Logan Co. KY Genealogical Society. It's hard to read those e-mail addresses as they appear on RootsWeb. I've attempted to do so for Pat Cooper, who I'm copying in because she's expressed interest in our correspondence on Peyton Randolph Harrison and Elizabeth Mease Barclay. And of course Christine Czarnecki is being copied in because she's already helped me a lot, and I understand she's writing to you, Judy, or to the Logan Co. KY GS. I've heard the LCGS has a lot on the Harrisons and Barclays. I feel like kind of a parasite here, in that I'm not contributing to your knowledge of the captioned. Some of us descendants of George & Ann Harrison of Madison Co. VA have seen our ancestor's 1822 Madison Co. VA will, and we've seen Jabez Harrison mentioned in it as a son, and we've seen a photocopied document showing that Jabez later signed off on his inheritance to his brother George Jr. & stated that he was the son of George and his mother was Ann Harrison. We further thought we'd found Jabez's marriage, which was to an Elizabeth Taylor 2/8/1820 in Orange Co VA. We had evidence that Jabez was in the Madison Co. VA area 1820-1821. Then, alas, another researcher claimed Jabez was the son of Peyton Randolph Harrison and Betty Barclay, and they had an obit for Jabez from an IN newspaper to back up this claim. It wasn't until recently that we noticed that the researchers who had claimed Jabez for Peyton didn't have a full list of children, usually had only Jabez (one also had Robert), and the obit was the only documentation they had for Jabez being the son of Peyton. The people who'd researched for a more complete list of children and whose research seemed to have more depth were not listing Jabez among the children. So I wondered about Peyton's will, and Christine told me that Jabez wasn't mentioned in the will, that only two surviving children were mentioned. I thought, if those were the only children surviving at the time of the will, and since Jabez was still alive, it would be significant if he weren't mentioned as a surviving child too. So the question I thought I should ask at this point is whether any other children were still alive. Do you have the dates of death of any of the children on the list? Christine has access to a marvelous group of letters, which she'll probably tell you about. She may discover all sorts of things there. Pat Cooper says she has lots of information that she'll be glad to share. What I'm interested in, again, is anything else that will help me show that Jabez was not a child of Peyton and Betty Barclay Harrison. I'm becoming convinced that he wasn't but don't want to pass up anything more firm. I appreciate all the help I've already gotten from you. Judy responded on 6/7/05: I think that you will find that Christine Czarnecki and Pat Cooper have far more on this line than we have -- that they both have corresponded with me in years past and have years of "thinking about" this line while mine is just a "passing through" study. I'll be glad to look through the research here while at Archives today but I've never hear the Jabez name mentioned in connection with this line. Will look however. Hope to hear from you, Pat, and will be glad to get any clues. Thanks for writing. Elinore
