My mother is a Kansas Auxier with Kentucky roots. For the past several years I have been researching records for the descendants of Simon Auxier who is buried in Floyd County, KY. Ezekiel Auxier was a grandson of Simon's and was living in Morgan County, KY in 1888. I am trying to learn if this Miss Auxier was a daughter of Ezekiel. If she is not then I would like to find out how she fits into the family tree. I would greatly appreciate any help you could provide. No hurry. I just learned of this event and it happened in or before 1888. Gratefully Judith Tickel Need At 08:33 PM 5/1/2003, you wrote: >Dear Judith, >I live in Mt.
