Does anyone have Scott County and it's Mountain Folk?
Of coarse my main lines are Lewallen 4 different lines. Pemberton 2 lines.   Also, Thompson, Buttram, Reed, Logan, Goad, Young, Todd, Miller, Russell, Hatfield, and Morris.   These people are my Scott-Morgan Co. ancestors. I sure I have missed a few.
Do you think did book will be valuble to me??

Also, I think there was another Scott Co. book that was recomended.   ?????
I have Dusty bits of Forgotton Past and Scott Co. Families and Scott Co. cemetery book.

Thanks,
Resa

Darlene,
My uncle Donald Todd, was the Morgan County historian.   He passed away a couple of years ago, before I was interested in genealogy.   He was raised in Scott Co., so perhaps he shared some of his history with the Scott Co. Historical Society.   What I am trying to find out is who are the parents of John Thompson and his wife Vicie Buttram are?   I believe Vicie's real name was Margaret Levisa Buttram.
Vicie Thompson is what is on her grave 1825-1900
I don't know where her John was buried he was born aprox. 1822

I am totalling guessing   that her parents are William Buttram and Rachel Reed.
I am guessing that his parents are Lewis Thompson and Phebe???

I do know from my grandmother that John Thompson had brothers named Elswick and Lewis.
Also, my ggrandfather was Elsic (Elswick)Thompson, so Elswick is a family name.   Elsic was John and Vicie's son.

To make a long story short I am just trying to find out the parents of John Thompson-Vicie Buttram.   born 1822 and 1825
Perhaps the other info may help.

Anything you can find out about I would be grateful for?
I hope you enjoy your trip.

I hope you see this before you go.
