Sandi Gorin has been publishing a list of the signatories to the early petitions of Kentucky. Colonel Sandi Gorin: sgorin@glasgow-ky.com KYBIOGRAPHIES Archives: _http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index?list=kybiographies_ (http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index?list=kybiographies) KYRESEARCH Archives: _http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index?list=kyresearch_ (http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index?list=kyresearch) Use this last URL, but be aware that rootsweb encloses the URL in dashes or parens, so remove those before pasting. Also, go down the LONG list of archives to the 2007 links. Sandi says she has an explanation of these signatures. I have not paid that close attention as I have the bound book at my local Family History Center and researched it YEARS ago. I cannot recall at this moment what the content of the petitions were, but I believe my ancestor was instrumental in the naming of Lexington. If trouble, contact Sandi Gorin--not me!!!
