Early Kentucky Settlers, 1700s-1800s

Comprehensive in its coverage of early Kentucky, this database includes a unique collection of court, marriage, military, and probate records. In all, approximately 225,000 individuals are referenced within the indexed images of the pages from twelve books.

Among the valuable resources, you'll find comprehensive accounts of Kentucky's participation in the Revolution and War of 1812. These accounts are especially useful because many of Kentucky's adult male settlers served in the Revolutionary War. Many were Virginians who were granted bounty lands for their service. In addition, you'll gain access to record of all marriages ever listed in The Register of the Kentucky Historical Society as well as an exhaustive index to individuals referenced within Kentucky's early statutes. In combination, the narrative and genealogical resources collected here will help you put the lives of your early Kentucky ancestors in historical context.
