Designed to cover the basic elements of Kentucky genealogical research in just four pages, this addition to our'Genealogy at a Glance'series gives you as much useful information in the space allotted as you'll ever need. Specially laminated for heavy use, it provides an overview of the facts required to begin and proceed successfully with your Kentucky family history research. Southern genealogy expert Michael A. Ports begins with a description of Kentucky's settlement background, starting with its first white settlement, Harrod's Town, in 1774.
