HOLMAN,HALL,STRUNK
I am looking for anyone reseaching the HOLMAN-HALL-STRUNK families of Clay and Whitley Counties. JAMES HENRY HOLMAN married SARAH HALL. I thought in Whitley, but the State Library couldn't find their marriage record.
James was born in Corbin and their first child, Lillie Holman was born in Williamburg, so I believe they did marry in Whitley.
James's parents were LANKFORD HOLMAN and JEURISHA STRUNK.
Sarah's parents were JAMES HALL and her mother was MAZE OR MIZE.
Any suggestions appreciated.

HARP,
I am searching for information on Tobias Harp, b. ca. 1768 (or earlier), probably in SC, m. Delilah ? in SC, moved to Knox Co., KY around the early 1800's, lived there and in Whitley Co., KY, died ca. early 1840's.
He was a witness to a deed for a James Harp of Newberry Co., SC in 1789. James was selling land he owned in Chester Co.
I have lots of information on Tobias and his descendants in KY that I would be glad to share but am searching for his parents and any other information about him in SC.

STEELE,TAYLOR, EATON
James Larkin STEELE and Sarah/Sally Ann TAYLOR were married 21 Nov 1882. I do not know where. He was living in Whitley County at the time. He is the son of Hiram C STEELE and Mary "Polly" EATON and was born on 5 June 1854. She is shown on censuses as having been born in both KY and TENN. The date was 12 Sep 1864. I know nothing of her parents. I am hoping that the record of marriage may set me on the right path. As most of you know, Whitley County borders on Tennessee. By 1900 the couple and their children were living in Clay County, Arkansas. This has been a source of frustration for me for twenty years.

CUPP, HEARST / HURST
Family stories say that my great-grandfather, Andrew Jackson CUPP, was actually born Andrew Jackson HEARST (or HURST) and was taken in and raised by the Cupps. Because of my grandfather Jesse Cupp's resemblance to Andrew's Cupp brothers, I suspect one of two things: 1- the Cupps raised more than one of the Hearst children, later adopting them (or the children simply took the Cupp name) OR 2- the Hearsts and the Cupps were related already, perhaps Mrs. Hearst who raised Andrew actually was born a Cupp.
Anyone else researching Cupps or Hearst/Hurst in southeastern KY?
