| I am researching the Sneed Family of Kentucky. The family originally arrived in Virginia from England sometime in the late 1600's. Over the next 100 years, members of the family migrated west to Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina and West Virginia. Later, branches continued to migrate west to Missouri, Arkansas, Texas and eventually California. Born in Kentucky, I grew up in Louisville and headed west via American Airlines after college. MY FAMILY TREE My father's particular branch of the family resided in Adair County (originally Green County)from early 1800's until present. The earliest I can trace back my fraternal Sneed branch is my great, great, great grandfather John Sneed. Rick Sneed, 1958 - present .. Clifton Lewis Sneed, 1936 - 1976 .... Johnnie James Sneed, 1882 - 1954 ...... Richard Edwin Sneed, 1852 - 1932 ........ John Sneed, tbd I know my ggggfather's parents were from Polaski County, Kentucky, but can't connect the family back any further. I'm fairly certian that the Sneeds of Polaski County are a branch of the Virginia Sneeds. My notes are more extensive on my grandmother's side of the family. Christened Amanda Baker, she married Johnnie James Sneed. Her records are more exentive: Rick Sneed .. Clifton Sneed .... Johnnie James Sneed, 1992 - 1954 .... m. Amanda Jane Baker, 1888 - 1964 ....... William Henry Baker, 1857-1914, ....... m. Sarah Elizabeth Corbin .......... James Madison Baker, .......... m. Margaret Butcher, ............. James Baker, 1793-1858 ............. m. (1) Nancy Robinson, (2) Susan Gregory ............... Thomas Baker, 1760-1832 ............... m. Ann Elliott, ?-1808 ................. John Baker, 17? - 1798 FAMILY AFFILIATIONS Adair County branches of the family includes the surnames: Baker, Bohannon, Coomer, Corbin, Hayes, Hamlett, Montgomery, Rogers, Parnell, Pickett, and several others. MORE INFORMATION My personal notes are much more extensive, with references to more than 200 family connections.
