The Skaggs-Files

June 22, 2001
I have been going over the Kentucky tax records for Obadiah Perry.1805 and
1808 in Green Co KY and again in 1814. found him in Barren Co in 1817-need to
go back and check the earlier Barren Co tax lists to see when he went to
Barren. by 1819 he's back in Green Co. He is in the 1810 cumberland Co
census, looks like he moved alot. Barren Co doesn't have a 1818 tax li
anymore but I think that my William Perry born 1791-1799 was his son and
explains why he was married in Barren Co in 1819. Also in the 1817 tax list
Odadiah list 2 males over 21 (maybe himself and William). This is a work in
progress-just wanted to let you know.
