History of Daviess County - Christopher D. Jackson
History of Daviess County
Recently I discovered a book published in 1883 about Daviess County
that contained a information about people from Ohio County . This includes people born in Ohio County
that moved to Daviess County ; people from Daviess
County that married people from Ohio County ;
and some people that were born in Daviess
County and moved to Ohio County
and then moved back to Daviess
County . I think I have
short bios on 28 people who were born as early as 1797 and as late as about
1850. I will post all of these people one-by-one starting below. The book has 854 pages and the official name
of the book is:
“History of Daviess
County , Kentucky .
Together with Sketches of Its Cities, Villages and Townships, Educational,
Religious, Civil, Military, and Political History; Portraits of Prominent
Persons, Biographies of Representative Citizens.”
