I'm descended (through my father) from Daniel Boone's in-laws - the
Bryans. When I lived in Utah, it was always fun to point out that the
LDS relied on scouting reports made by an ancestor of mine out of
Louisville in the 1820's.

My son's ancestors on his Mom's side are partly from Kentucky -
including one Princess Cornblossom, daughter of Chief Doublehead and
wife of "Big Jake" (something?) who was a Revolutionary War hero. (I
am taking this from memory very early in the morning, so I may not
have every detail perfect).

Blue grass and blue bloods...

My people were fleeing from the bluebloods. They were true pioneers.
