Looking for information on Anderson Winfrey and Lavina Maderis or Meadoms. They show on 1850 Russell Co. census. Other Winfreys appear to be related in Pulaski, Russell, Adair, and Cumberland. Some moved on to Carroll county, MO. Anderson had a child, John Emory Winfrey, b. 1-20-1844, who is my husband's great grandfather. Any information on Winfreys in Kentucky appreciated.

I am looking for information on George Washington Ballinger (Ballenger?) and Nancy Neal who were my great great grandparents. They were married in Russell Co., KY on 14 March 1878. George was born about 1855 in Russell Co. to Madison and Mary Ballinger. Per my great grandmother, Myrtie Ballinger-Godbey, George was 3/4 Indian (of what type, I don't know). The 1850 Census records confuse the issue even more, as Madison's last name was listed as Wooldridge and he and Mary Ballinger were living in the Nancy Wooldridge household with George's older brother Cyrus (then 5 months). Nancy Neal was born about 1860 in Tennessee to Robert and Emaline Neal. Because of a childhood injury, Nancy had "fits" (epilepsy?) and was committed to an institution somewhere in Kentucky after 1910 - where she passed away. George also died sometime after 1910. I would like to find out where George and Nancy are buried and verify George's Indian lineage. Any and all information on the above persons would be greatly appreciated.
