HARRIS, SKIMMERHORN
I have searched for the origins of my 2.g.grandmother for quite some time. I recently found her grave in Danville, Boyle County, KY. The information in a book at the cemetery indicates that she was born in Whitley County, KY.
Her name is Nancy HARRIS. Birth: ca. 1812.
m. Henry SKIMMERHORN ca. 1828, d. Danville, KY, 09-Jan-1862, age: 51
Nancy and Henry lived in Rockcastle (1850), Garrard (1855), Boyle (1860).

WILSON
I am wondering if the Bryan Station has any
relation to Bryan Store, located in Whiltley Co. I am working on WILSON's in
Whiltley & Bell CO. and have heard serveral refereces to that name (Bryan's
Store) of a location near Pine Mountain along the Cumberland River.
My John Asbury Wilson appears in the Whitley Co area sometime in the early
1800s.

Whitley and my mom was a "Bear mountain Girl" in the fifties(1958,at

daughter of Irene Vaughn. Any info would be greatly apprecialted as I
have no other sources for family history.
Thank you.
