Kentucky County, was admitted to the Union in 1792, as a separate state as the State of Kentucky. Many of folks in my line were born and died in Lincoln, Warren or Logan County Kentucky. Lincoln County came out of the Kentucky County portion in 1780. In 1792, Logan County came out of the Lincoln County portion and in 1796, Warren County came out of the Logan County portion. So entries prior to 1792 that stated a family member was born in Virginia and or Kentucky and or various Kentucky counties, may have occurred in the same farm/property/city and it was only the state and county lines that moved. Talk about re-districting!!!!!
