I am looking for any information that will help me find out about my grandmother's family. She is listed in the 1910 Census of Nelson County, Ky. The family consisted of William and Lizzie Jones. The children were Frank, David, Margaret, and William. The place of residence was the County Almshouse (poorhouse). Shortly after this census was taken, the children were placed in an orphanage either in Bardstown or Louisville. My grandmother was raised by Travis and Della Davis of Owensboro. She married Charles J. Millay in Owensboro where she lived all her life. I would love to hear about her parents and siblings.
