Brock, Have been going over my records and got to wondering why all these folks moved from KY to Indiana in the early 1800's. KY got too settled for them so they moved further on out onto the frontier? Land easier to get? I read the Goodspeed bios and the countryside in Indiana is described as still being pretty wild, but then so was KY at this time too - Indians were still causing substantial problems. Just wondered what your thoughts might be.
