Dear Matt: My gggrandfather was named Thomas West. He was born abt. 1819-20 somewhere in Kentucky. He lived in Paris, Monroe Co., Mo. in 1880. He. married Lydia Wilcox who was b. abt. 1826 also somewhere in Kentucky. I do not know the county in Kentucky they came from. They had several children: James, JohnD., Laura, and Cynthia who was my great-grandmother. She was born in Jan. 1844 in Paris, Monroe Co., Mo. She married Robert Glover. I very much would like to find the parents of Thomas West and Lydia Wilcox. I am at a dead end. I do not know if my Thomas West was a decendant of yours . I hope you can shed some light on the line. Thank you, Joan
