The earliest record I found in Owen Co KY for my brick-wall ancestor, 3rd
great-grandmother Agnes (maiden name unknown) Smith, was in Court Order
Book D, 1839, regarding 3 of her sons being bound out to neighbors
Lilburn(?) Roberts, William H. Smither, and Nathaniel Searcy. Agnes
Smith is head of house in 1840 and 1850 census. I assume her husband
died sometime around 1839, but have no confirmation. An indenture
document dated 1861 in deed book at the Court House indicates she was
deceased by then and had an outstanding loan on some property. Other

I am also looking for Henry Carter who died sometime between 1850-1860 in Owen County along with his wife Betsy (Lizzie or Elizabeth) Carter, she was born in 1809 and died anywhere from 1880-1890.

webpage and it states that there is a grave in Carter Cemetery in Owen
County that has Henry Carter as dying in 1859 (one year before the

that is him!!!! I just would like someone to take a picture of it if
