The Barry Marston Family Home Page

I'm researching numerous families of Owen Co. Ky. Some of these have connections to Bourbon, Carroll, Fayette, Franklin, Gallatin, Grant, Harrison, Henry, Madison, and Scott Counties in Ky. Many of these families have roots in Virginia (Culpeper, Essex, Middlesex Cos. etc.) and/or North Carolina.At the present time I'm most interested in the Ayres and Marston Families.Some of my additional families of interest are: Beatty, Bennett, Campbell, Eads, Gardner, Hammond, Hunter, Kemper, Layton, McPherron, Perkins, Robinson, Russell, Shirley, Vineyard, and Wallace.
