My gr-gr grandfather was killed at the Battle of Green River November of 1862 in Hart County. Supposedly, he was buried in a mass grave there. He was mustered out of Madison Indiana 47th infantry company G and the Battle was the first battle that he participated in.

I've been watching your videos hoping to see something about Hancock Taylor, Zachary Taylor's uncle. His was the first non native grave in Kentucky in 1773. He was buried by my fifth great Grandfather Abraham Haptonstall after they were attacked by Shawnee while out surveying in 1774. Taylor and Haptonstall were with James Harrod on the early trip surveying the Ohio River with Captain Bullitt before the founding of Harrodsburg and were the first, in 1769, along with Hancock's brother Richard to take the Mississippi river all the way to New Orleans. French explorers went down the river a hundred years earlier but only went as far as the delta, 376 miles north of the Gulf of Mexico. I have been compiling information on Abraham and Hancock who it seems from all accounts were very good friends. I have a lot more information if that is a story you would like to do a future episode. I've been enjoying your channel .Keep ' em coming.
