Lisa, Thank you for the information. Yes, I descend from the Rockcastle Bethurems. My line didn't stick around for much more than a generation however. Benjamin, the original Bethurem in Rockcastle, is my 4great-grandfather. I descend through his son, William and wife Mary McLemore.

They do put out a small newsletter several times a year and if you want to get that you can send $8 to the society at: P. O. Box 930, Mt. Vernon, KY 40456-9030. I can give you more information if you are planning a visit there. I take it you are a descendant of the Bethurems of Rockcastle Co.? Here are some links if you don't already have them that should be of help. <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ky/rockcastle/rockcastle.html">Rockc astle Co Ky Archives TOC</A> <A HREF="http://www.users.kih.net/~rcpl/index.html">Rockcastle County Public Library</A> <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~kyrockca/rock.htm">Rockcastle County Kentucky KyGenWeb Page</A> Regards, Lisa Wallen Logsdon
