We need to get some census information, marriage records etc from Kentucky. Sounds like a few of us have a connection there... does anyone out there have access to such information??

My >family descends from them.... To add to a possible Kentucky link... my g-g-grandfather, Archibald, is supposed to have been born in Kentucky, March 22, 1816, d. 11/17/1884. The 1850 census shows his state of birth as KY, but that's all I know. He married Malinda Graham (b 1824, d 1872). >>
