    My family is from Kentucky. I’ve been researching and we are not from Africa nor were slaves. My ancestors were farmers with nearly a thousand of farming acres. I suggest everyone research their past. The US Census was a great help of uncovering the truth.🇺🇸

    Love this. Thank you so much for putting this on here.
    I'm from Muhlenberg Co originally, amd my family (surname ancestry) has been there since 1804....before that they were in Woodford Co....and before that in Goochland VA. The original ancestor was married (my 5th grandmother) to a Campbell. Her family had been all over....after her father fought at Kings Mountain they moved to near Knoxville....then to Fayette Co by 1784......where they branched out and settled in the west of that era. Her first cousin settled my hometown of Greenville. I absolutely love the pioneer history of KY and how a huge part of my family settled it.

His wife was a Sarah Winfrey who was from Dorcet. 25 years after he arrived he was killed in an Indian attack. We may be distant kin....very fascinating to know I may, and probably do, have relations across the globe.

      I found an 1934 Australian coin when I was a kid, on the property I grew up on in Breathitt County, at a camp.
      It had an engraving of a king on it.
      Before it was a camp, the Bethel property was a church based orphanage. So perhaps they had world travelers stop in.
      But I was mystified as to how that coin arrived in southeastern Ky.

    My dad's family are from the same holler in eastern Kentucky since genealogy done by a relative went back to 1770's when the courthouse burned down and haven't been able to go back any further so far. Being real close to the Virginia border, this part of Appalachia was settled no doubt by those ame people who were around during the time this country became a country.
    Back then someone would make a claim from a creek or river, on one side and take up a whole bottom near the flowing water, and up the side of one or two adjacent mountains with a holler cut up the middle of the two. Depending on the lay of the land, ones parcel may end at the top of the mountains...or much further depending on the next running water or creek source. Water flows down in the bottom between every few mountains even if the rate and volume of flow may be small. Those natural "boundaries" were first used as property lines when the Commonwealth was first settled.
    Sure we all have immigrated to this great country, it's just mind blowing this half of my family has been pretty much in the same spot for around 275 years in the same general area. It don't take long, just a few generations, for young men and women to marry as the original home place gets split up into smaller parcels. Many of these would not be farmed on their own due to no flat land but back then if one set out to farm they would make sure their parcel came with enough of the flatter land near water.
    On my mom's side of the family both grandparents came from big farming families in the west/southwestern side of Kentucky near the Ohio River which would be another interesting genealogy to study some day. Not so pleasant answers may arise to questions such as why my grandmother was the second oldest of 13 kids, all of whom died of cancer within a relatively small amount of time, with the exception of two who died young due to other causes. My grandfather's story is not much different but not as dramatic in numbers of deaths due to cancer which were spread out over several more years.

      I've read that when they were building downtown Lexington they had to build around tunnels that had already been here a long time. There were supposedly giant skeletons with reddish hair in the tunnels. A person connected with the original and very real Bavarian Illuminati in the 1700s went out of his way to visit the tunnels. The tunnels are said to be connected with the mound builders. Lexington also has one of the oldest Freemason Lodges in the country, and I remember finding info that connected the original Lexington Grandmaster and this stuff, and connections to Transylvania University. If you have any sources or links to connecting and relevant info regarding stuff like the Lexington tunnels or giants I would greatly appreciate it if you would share it, thanks
