Indiana. I have hit a brick wall as far as his birth place and parents. He could have been born in KY VA or PA. I don't think he was born in Scotland, Ireland or England though his parents may have been. His wife Nancy's family may have originated in England. I've researched as far back as her 2x great grandfather on her Mother's side. Of course nothing is carved in stone as the names are quite common. Any help would be appreciated.
