IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SEE THE ENTRY IN IT'S ORIGINAL CONTEXT


"The only way to get a divorce in the State of Kentucky before the year 1809 was by 
an act of the state legislature.  In January of 1809 the circuit courts were given 
authority to grant divorces.  Some of these records come from a list of made by a 
gentleman named Glenn Cliff while he was working at the Kentucky Historical Society 
in the 1950's.  This list of divorces was printed in the magazine "Bluegrass Roots" 
published by the Kentucky Genealogical Society beginning in the Spring of 1980.  Some 
of these records I found while searching through the individual counties in the 
circuit court clerk's records and some are from reports of the Kentucky State 
Legislature."      --Shirley Reynolds
