Notes
Marriage
Hardin Hawkins and Letty ChenowethNamed in her father's will as Letitia Hawkins.
Census (family)
This is a possibility?Harden Hawkins, 3 boys under 10, 1 male 16-18, 2 males 16-26, 1 male 26-45. 1 female 26-45.
If it is this Hardin Hawkins, it fits that he and his wife are the male/female 26-45 (Hardin 29 yr) Hardin and Letitia had 3 boys under 10 by 1820, that fits too. But who are the other 3 males?
Woodford was created in 1788 from Fayette Co., County Seat: Versailles. It's neighbors to the west are Anderson, Franklin, Mercer, with Nelson, Washington, Hardin and LaRue just to the west of them.
The Hawkins descendants of Uncle Capt Moses Hawkins settled in Woodford Co., KY, plus sister Jane married in John Hackley in Woodford Co. KY, in 1810.
