Hi Folks, I have been researching Harvey Carpenter as well as his ancestors, and his wife
Louisa Dillon, I was contacted by some very nice people who have given me some information
on Harvey and his family from Fleming County Ky, I have been searching for this info for
almost ten years. 2 things,if any one knows this Carpenter line contact me,also Fleming
County Ky Genealogist Caren Pratt has sent an email out letting everyone know that as of
June 25th 2007 there will be no more genealogy records stored at the court house, They are
being removed by Local Government and taken to another place stored in a warehouse, away
from public access. This is wrong, very wrong, They are doing this all over the state so I
hear. This means land Deeds, tax records anything past a certain date I guess will be
removed, and I guess Caren will lose her job. This is so sad. I guess they will place it
all in a central location and charge heavy dollars for researching your families history,
I can not say what I want to say because it would be political in nature, I think we
should all write the local elected personnel and raise you know what. But it will go in
one ear and out the other ,just like everything else we tell our elected officials. It
makes me sick how they can mess up a soup sandwhich if given the chance. Please write the
local officals and let them know we are mad, and are not going to take it any more !!!!!
even though there is nothing we can do or say that will stop them from removing these
documents. If we let it go by here it will start every where , and soon we won't be
able to research the stories are ancestors are screaming at us from their graves.
Signed, Mad as H--l
