About the Data
This data set contains indexed
page images from the following three books:
| |
Genealogies
of Kentucky Families, Volume I |
| |
Genealogies
of Kentucky Families, Volume II |
| |
Genealogies
of Kentucky Families, Volume III |
These books contain family
history articles collected from The Register of the Kentucky Historical Society
and from The Filson Club History Quarterly. The articles from The
Register of the Kentucky Historical Society were published between 1903
and 1965 and include every Bible record and genealogical fragment published
in the Register.
Referencing approximately 51,000 individuals and covering the entire state
of Kentucky, the majority of the records included in this data set are from
the 1700s and 1800s. Depending on the original article, what you can learn about
each listed individual varies. For the most part, this collection includes genealogies,
family histories, Bible records, vital records, cemetery inscriptions, marriage
records, and birth and death lists. These records may provide you with information
such as the dates and locations of important family events, as well as the names
of the participants, witnesses, or other family members.
