    Kentucky’s rich frontier and Civil War history offer abundant genealogical resources. County histories, land grants, and pioneer family records help trace early settlers moving westward from Virginia and the Carolinas during the expansion of the United States. Military pension files, church archives, and tax lists also provide crucial insights into family histories in the Bluegrass State that can power up your research.
