Name: Michelle Knox <texrelady@yahoo.com> Date: 2005-07-24 What surnames are you researching in Kenton Co? Knox, Switzer, Strange Where did your ancestors come from prior to Kenton? unsure-this is my husbands adopted family. he was adopted from carolyn deaton and william bricking of new port at infantcy. What time frame were your ancestors in Kenton Co? 1960's Comments:
I am searching for information regarding my husbands adopted family. He was adopted by William "Bill" and Violet "Vi" (Switzer) Knox in 1965. He was born 12/29/1964 as "Keith", which was the name the nurses at the hospital gave him. When he was adopted a few months later and he was given his adopted paternal grandfathers name, Stanley, Stanley Keith Knox. Keith's parent's trailer home burned down in the late 1960's or 1970's and they moved to Lutz, Florida.
I am searching for info about:
1)the paternal grandfather Stanley B Knox and his family and
2)a possible sibling of my husband.
Stanley B Knox is said to have owned a bar or Supper Club in the 1950's or 1960's and was tragically killed New Years' Eve 1963 by his own son Bill Knox in a accident. Do you have any further info about this? It is beleived they lived in the Independence area.
Secondly, there is said to have been a sibling of my husband. It is said she was also adopted and her birth was listed in a family bible. Not sure if it's a Knox bible or her birth family bible. Her birth name is thought to be Monica Strange.
Thank You for any information you are able to offer to putting this puzzle together.
P.S. We have sucessfully located and reunited my husband with his birth parents and siblings.
Michelle Knox
