Dear Paula,

 

I thought this would be an easy lookup, but I found a mistake in our index (which is not necessarily bad). We somehow interpreted the name you want as “A.” McMillen, but it is actually “H.” McMillen – Harriet (Holden), widow of Robert McMillen. He died 28 March 1860. Robert married Harriet, the d/of William and Harriet (Leach) Holden on 25 Oct 1852 – probably Scott Co, KY. I will list the family, and copy the 1850 listing to this report as well – following the 1860. If you find this family of further interest, there is a fairly large genealogical report in the cemetery book, about 1 and a quarter pages, which I can send to you.

 

Let me know what you think after reading the information.
