Looking for anyone who is researching PERKINS, CLAYTON, or PEMBERTON lines in Shelby Co. area. Have some data on each and would like to share. Thanks George

I have searched long and hard for my Hannah McKinney (married John Tarr in Shelby in 1804) and her parents and siblings. The only clue is an indenture on 26 Aug 1806, where John McKinney (best bet for her father), dec'd of the county of Shelby, had "heirs and representative sell land to Moses Cherry of Boone Co. The land is described as "a part of Elliots Settlement of 400 acres on Clear Creek". Anyone know where this is? The heirs and representatives are (as best I can make out the writing, which is tough) Wilmer or Wilmot Mathers, Hannah Toor (spelled variously as Torr and Tarr) and John Skelton or Shelton. Has anyone ever heard of a Mathers or Skelton/Shelton in Shelby? Also, a Rachel McKinney married a Stevens. Does anyone work on the Stevens name in Shelby? I am doing my best to put a tiny crack in this hugh stone wall that is Hannah McKinney. Appreciate any help here. Jane Sarles

I was looking at the Shelby County 1850 census last night and noticed: several pages of names listed as individuals, not families. all from Ireland. all shown as Laborers Was there an encampment or commune of Irish immigrants in Shelby County then? Possibly railroad workers? I saw in another 1850 census (either Franklin or Spencer) that the State Prision was enumerated, but these Shelby county pages did not have any notation at all regarding this unusual listing.

Sam Would you look for Fielding Lacklin in the Mt. Olivet Church Cemetery. He died by or before 1836. He lived in Henry County, KY and was in the War of 1812. These look ups are a wonderful thing you people on this list do. We that cannot get to the area suredo appreciate it. Thank you very much for your time and any help you can give me. Grace

Would someone look up if a John Bohannon & Helen Cook Bohannon are buried in any Shelby Co., cemetery? John died in 1832 and Helen in 1837. I certainly appreciate your assistance. Thanks, Sylvia Bohannon Savage

George, Here are the Todd's I found in the Henry Co. KY Cemetery book. None of them were buried at Mt. Olivet so I am not sure they are yours. John Todd 8-24-1806 died 3-6-1873 buried at Eminence Cemetery. John B. Todd 1838-1919 Eminence Cem. Mary Todd 10-18-1802 died 10-26-1883 Eminence Cem. Mary Clayton Todd 4-14-1784 died 8-14-1870 buried at Eminence Cem. That's all I found on them. Hope it helps.

Good Morning Everyone! I have recently become the KY state contact for a new genealogy project on the internet called GenExchange. They are going to be opening a searchable webpage with a database format in all 50 states, with a page also for all counties. GenExchange believes it getting the most FREE raw data possible to the researchers. While at the present time the one for KY only has the state page open, county pages are anticipated within the week.I am right now looking for persons who might be interested in adopting a county in KY for monitoring the page, assuring the info entered by visitors is entered in the appropriate category. Also I am looking for persons interested in doing lookups, so I can place your name on the page under Volunteer Lookups.I know there are several of you out there that have wonderful resources on KY counties.I encourage you to check in on this website to see what each KY county will appear as after completion next week, so you can see the planned format. http://www.genexchange.com/in/owen/index.cfm If you are interested in volunteering in anyway please contact me, as I am trying to get some great resources lined up for KY researchers.
