Research and Writings of Harry Middleton Hyatt
Contributed by
I discovered this material after I found a copy in the Kansas City public library of "The Millers of Millersburg" by Harry Middleton Hyatt. This book has been referred to in the KYBOURBO mailing list numerous times. The Miller family was one of the founding families in Bourbon and Nicholas counties. They also intermarried with many of the other founding families, among whom was the Baker family.
At a visit to a local LDS Family History center, I decided to look up Harry Hyatt's name to see what else he might have written, and I luckily found that he had begun a book about the Baker family, but he died before he could publish it. He collected a lot of material, mostly hand written, collected from courthouse records in Ky. and Missouri, and from other contributors. His work was microfilmed by the Kentucky Historical Society, and is also available through the LDS, on 7 microfilm reels. Below I have typed out the description from the LDS catalogue:
Genealogical collection. -- Frankfort : Kentucky Historical Society, 1987. -- 7 microfilm reels : 35 mm.
Microfilm of originals at the Kentucky Historical Society, Frankfort. See also the papers filmed by the genealogical Society of Utah.
Each roll contains a list of what is in the original boxes but does not indicate a roll number.
Includes information on the Baker, Griffith, Miller and Hyatt families.
