Hello, I am researching John B. Orick who married Martha Burchill and later Catherine Lumpkins and lived in Campbell County TN. I have a copy of his Civil War Pension file which says that he died in 1910. I have not been able to locate a death certificate. I have checked the Tennessee and Kentucky index with no luck. The same goes for Catherine Lumpkins Orick who also died in 1910. I would like to somehow tie John Orick to his parents which I believe are Robison Orick and Elizabeth Slatin. Thanks, Leigh Ann _LPartin@aol.com_ (mailto:LPartin@aol.com)

To my Campbell County cousins: I will be changing email addresses effective immediately to genefricks@comcast.net. I will keep the prodigy address until the end fo the month to transition. Gene Fricks

Hi Leigh Ann In my research I have generally found that there are not death certificates until about 1911. I did see these families in the 1850 Campbell County census at http://www rootsweb.com/~tncampbe/census/1850/p13.html#p76 - John and Martha are just 5 houses/families away from Robison and Elizabeth.
