This is an interesting search in that it seems to contain elements of the family of Frederick Severs of Muhlenberg Co KY and an unknown group of Severs another of the list readers is searching for. This search appears to connect the two groups geographically if no other way. Charles Severs the short group. I will outline a sketch that I have of them. Possibly another reader could tell any connection to the Muhlenberg Co Ky group of Frederick Severs (Rev War soldier) and Michael Severs (Sharpshooter hero of war of l812) of the same family. (Good stories abound about Michael Severs as he was such a colorful Frontiersman--example--after the Battle of New Orleans he returned to KY on foot and beat the others back who rode back on horseback. >View Image</A> >Patentee Name</A> >State</A> >County</A> >Issue Date</A> >Land Office</A> >Doc.
