Who out there has the information we need on these migration routes? 1. Who knows how they got from Bedford Co. across the Smokies (Cumberland Gap?) 2. If they travelled by the Ohio, how did they get to it? Forbe's Road to Fort Duquesne (Pittsburgh)? 3. If by land, on the WIlderness Road? Where were the way-stations? 4. Why did they all end up along the Ohio if they came by land? (My HAYNES who left Bedford County, VA all ended up in Meade/Breckinridge Counties, on the Ohio, or in Ohio/Daviess/Hardin Counties, again along the river.) 5. Who is interested in swapping arrival/departure times to see who might have travelled together? I find PATE, MOORMAN, ELLIS and other names following HAYNES from VA to KY.

One of our ancestors, Christopher Howard married Elizabeth Reeder in 1811 in Bedford Co., VA. In a deed (will? I can't remember right now), there is a statement made about a bank account in Lynchburg, VA. At any rate Christopher Howard and his family moved from Bedford Co., VA to Breckinridge and Meade Cos., KY. I can not connect them to anybody yet, but if there is a common migration path there may be some keys to who they are. Chrsitopher and Elizabeth Howard were the parents of: William Irvin, Robert White, Elizabeth, Jane Ellen, James Hilary, Sarah, Martha, Harriet, Thomas H., George Edward, John Richard and DeGrafton R. Howard. Most of these moved on to Arkansas or Missouri except James H. who died in 1856 in Hancock Co., and John >Richard< who died in 1903 in Hancock Co. Sorry, but I have absolutely no information about any other Howards at all.
