Farley John Dillon Perkinson, wife Fannie Barnes Florence Mary Perkinson, husband Roy Shelby Culver Mary Ruth Culver, husband Charles Edward Muck Joy Dawn Muck (me), husband Johnny Mack If you are interested in this line, I have extensive research on them.

I HAVE WM.A.LEACH, SON OF WM.B.LEACH,SON OF WM.LEACH, ALL FROM SCOTT CO.KY.I WONDER IF THEY ARE CONNECTED TO THE 1754 WILLIAM.

If anyone is interested in the Howard and Preston families who owned "Norfolk" on the Ohio River in Trimble Co., I stumbled upon a great website tonight: http://www.uky.edu/LCC/HIS/dolphstuff.html Even though it doesn't discuss "Norfolk" specifically, it has a lot of good information about the times and these families. (Also see Trimble Co. Heritage, 1988, p. 88-92) Julia

Thanks to several of you on the list, I have compiled a much more complete Montfort history. I thought I'd share what I've pieced together from the LDS, Rootsweb, Trimble obits, etc. Please keep in mind this may not all be correct but it's a starting point, anyway. If anyone has anything to add or correct, please let me know. Thanks!
