For Nelson County:

TITHABLES
(when you get there, type in
"nelson county tithables"
Without the Quotation marks,
in the search window)

in the url (uniform resource locator) window this should read:  https://sites.rootsweb.com/~kygenweb/cgi-bin/isearch


The Tithable's were taken after the first Militia's were formed.  They were a headcount, of what seems to be White Males, and all slaves (probably adult).  These counts were made before Kentucky was allowed into the State of the Union...as a State.  For more on them, please visit the link.

Magruder:

WHO WAS NANCY MAGRUDER



This sight is one determined researchers search for her ancestor Nancy Magruder m. to Charles Brandon, her birth ca. 1750, and covers the states of PA, SC, KY and Tennessee!   This researcher took the Magruder list searching for information that might lead to more concrete proof that this woman existed, and was the mother of someone in her line of Brandons.  One determined researcher, of so many I have encountered.
