This blog is dedicated to my ancestors of Nicholas County, Kentucky. I have have over 250 ancestors from this area and their lives span over 200 years. You are welcome to comment on anything that has to do with ancestry, Kentucky history, your own Kentucky genealogy or anything about Nicholas County, even recent happenings!
If you are interested in putting any posts on this blog, please contact me. They can be about your own ancestors and a story to honor them. It can also be about Nicholas County! Use your imagination - all is welcome!
I also have many family lines in Clark and Estill Counties! Please view my Abney blog if you family/ancestors in that area. http://abneyancestry.blogspot.com/

At the bottom of the page is a place to comment. There are many unknown people in these photos and we would love to identify them. Some of the mystery album pictures have names, but we still do not know who this person was.

This page will be a chronicle of my journeys relating to genealogy and genealogy research. Some places I visit will be the localities of where my ancestors once lived. Other places will be a wonderful libraries and archives in which research can be conducted.
Family History Library ~ Salt Lake City
This Monday, February 7th I will be traveling to Salt Lake City to do research at the Family History Library. I will also be attending the Rootstech Conference which is relating to a mix to genealogy and technology. I am looking forward to both of these opportunities! This will be my third time to conduct research at this wonderful place.
I am interested in genealogy and love mixing it with up with some digital photo restoration. I have four beautiful children that keep me busy and bring me much joy! I also like to scrapbook, knit and garden - must come from my farming ancestors.
