Anita48 on 2011-03-25 12:48:57Thank you for your post. I am researching the Howards from South-Eastern Kentucky, as well as these surnames: Osborne, Collins, Frye, Brock, Blanton, Wages & Saylor. Would like to share and compare data if possible.
Thanks
Anita
wildflower66 on 2011-04-22 12:38:40I'm looking for a Hensley ancestor from Stafford Co., VA. It appears that many of the Hensley's from Harlan Co. go back to the same family that I am researching.
I am looking for Elizabeth Hensley born ca 1775. She married Jesse Gough in Fauquier Co., VA in 1799.
I have a cousin who has Hensley cousins from Harlan Co. and I think she has Howard's.
maryechaney on 2011-04-22 13:27:28I'm sorry but I don't have an Elizabeth born 1775 and married to Jesse Gough. I'm sure we must be related somehow. Good luck on your search.
McCoy on 2011-04-25 21:05:51Patrick Howard and Jane Couch are also my great-great grandparents on my Mom's side (Martha Howard). My Mom's Dad moved from Breathitt Co. to Letcher Co., KY. Anyway, hello to my distant relatives!!
Neet on 2011-08-26 20:47:09I am the great grandaughter of Patrick and Shrilda Howard. My grandmother was Martha Howard Potter, the sister of your mother. My Father was James Burton (J.B) Potter. I had talked to Mike Howard and he informed me of your search and information.
