That's what happened when I looked at the Lincoln County, Kentucky tax lists for 1787-1805.
I had found Lincoln County KY marriage bonds where Rebekah Crawford gave permission for Mary Crawford to marry James Sellers and Sarah Crawford to marry William David Sellers. Another marriage bond secured by Nathan Douglas and James Crawford for the marriage of James Crawford and Martha Knight was found in Lincoln County, KY records.
Thus, I was expecting to find the following:
- Sellers family
- Rebekah Crawford
- George Douglass -- who sold land to Rebekah Crawford and may be her brother
- Nathan Douglass -- who signed the bond for James Crawford
- James Crawford -- who is believed to have turned 21 in 1792
I was not expecting to find:
- John Crofford
- Alexander Crofford
- William Crafort on Richland Creek
- James Crawford on Rolling Forks
- Robert Crawford on Hanging Fork
- Ellis Richard (and other Ellis families) on Noland Fork
These unexepected finds will require additional research but may provide clues to my Crawford lineage.
