Posted 11/13/2005 Surnames: Eaves / Highlander
I am looking for an obituary for William Eaves who died in Carroll
County - at Lee's Branch, 1 Mar 1853. He was born in Virginia. We
believe that his wife was Nancy Highlander. They were married 28 Jan
1798 in Orange Co. Virginia. We believe that they moved into Gallatin
Co. about 1803 - 1805. That part of Gallatin Co. became Carroll Co. in
1838. Verification is needed on wife's maiden name.... Also the name of
his parents, if possible. Since he was very old - for that time - about
95 -
when he died, I'm hoping that there would be an obituary about him
giving this information. Thanks, Lois Eaves,

I am trying to locate an obituary for Jefferson Davis Beard. He was born
on Oct. 5th, 1861, and died May 30, 1943 in Carroll County. He was buried
May 31, 1943 in Ghent, Ky. I am trying to trace my ancestors and it would
be helpful if I had a list of family members. Any information would be very
helpful. I have a copy of his death certificate, but it does not have a lot
of information on it. Thanks, Nelleane Beard

jrhick@gmail.com Posted 6/13/2005 Surnames: Cobb
My ancestor, John Cobb, said he was born 1814 in Henry County, KY - as
these counties changed boundaries during the early days, I am hoping there
is someone in Carrolton County who may recognize the Cobb name. We know he
had two sisters: Mary and Hester - and an unnamed brother. He also did
not give us the names of his parents. Thank you so much. Margie Hinton in
California

I'm seeking information on the family of the Samuel Turner who married
Mrs. Eliza Kemper Bledsoe in Owen County, KY on 26-Oct-1837. Samuel Turner
seems to appear out of nowhere in 1837 and has more or less vanished from the
scene by 1846, but he shows up in tax and various court records in both Owen and
Carroll Cos., in the years in between. He also was around long enough to father
a child (who became my great-great- Posted 3/26/2005 Surname: Searcy I am looking for info on James W. Searcy and William L.
Searcy. Also, has anybody ever heard of Lamar (Lamaur?) Searcy of Carroll
county, KY? If you have info on these people, please contact Posted 2/27/2005 Surname: Butler
I found the gravesite of William Butler, I believe, behind the new LaGrange
Baptist Church on Commerce Drive in LaGrange. There is just one grave behind
the church and it is marked
Butler - Company F 9th Kentucky Calvary. I thought it was very interesting
that it was one gravesite by itself in a family plot, but no other Butler's
were buried there. It was a Civil War tombstone. Does anyone know about this
gravesite in LaGrange, KY?? Thanks, Lawrence Doty
