I'm looking at the Floyd County1820 Census. Many of my direct decendents are MORRIS, POLLY, COMBS and probably MULLINS. I am originally from Perry County and researching roots in surrounding counties.
I am interested in Floyd County, KY because my ancestors settled there in the early 1800's. I am researching the CONLEY family and my search has led me to Floyd County.
Need information on David H. CONLEY, b. ca 1787, I believe that he is the David CONLEY that married on October 21, 1813 in Floyd County, Kentucky on April 14, 1834 to Mahalia ROBERSON. David H. CONLEY gave consent, Who were the parents of David H. CONLEY and where was he born? When did he die? I am trying to prove that these two men are my 2nd and 3rd great-grandfathers.
I read about your Society in the Kentucky Explorer. My Kentucky family surnames are BOWMAN (BAUGHMAN), BROOKS, COOK, COPE, HAGINS, HAMMAN, HARBOUR, HERIN, LINVILLE, MOORE, MULLINS, POLLY, SPURLOCK, STAMPER. Most came from Virginia. few from North Carolina, settling eventually in Breathitt County, KY. Time frame, mid 1700's to late 1800's.
