Hello Breck Co board, I am doing some research on a Tandy Johnson and Lucretia/Lucetta Legrand/Lagrand.
I dont know if anyone might have some info on these two they will be willing to share, but anything would be
helpful. I think they might be my 2nd great grandmother's parents, Lucy Catherine Johnson. I do know one of
her parents was a Tandy Johnson, because Tandy is giving their dau consent to marry Joesph Wells.
Here is what I have.

Ok Lucy Catherine Johnson married Joseph Wells on 14 March 1874 in Breck Co Ky, it has this as Lucy's first marriage but Joseph's 2nd, but not sure about that because I haven't found anything on that yet. Ok well I think my 2nd great grandfather Joseph Wells might be Richard Joseph Wells the son of John Wells and Elizabeth Holland. Here is a
1850 census I found maybe for him.

here is children of Joseph Wells and Lucy C. Johnson, of course Mary Lewis Wells who md Steve Pool/Poole,
also Charles Burton, Elijah Baker known as Lige and Roscoe Napolian, I have all info on them and their spouses, and children. I also found two other children that might be theirs; a Joseph 'Jos T.' Wells b. Breck Ky d. 16 Feb, 1878 and Wm R.J. Wells b. 29 Dec, 1874 Breck Ky,
I found Joseph Wells's birthdate as May 1848, his wife Lucy had to pass away or something between 1880 and 1898, because he remarried abt 1898 to Artemtia 'Artie' Bozarth who was 1st married to Philip Johnson, in the census for 1900 hardinsburg, breck ky it said Joseph and Artie had been married for two yrs. he is also living in the 1910 census in breck co with his wife Artie and a stepson, then in the 1920 census he is living with his son inlaw Steve Pool and his dau Mary Wells Pool in Glen dean breck co, his wife Artie died in 1914. If anyone could help me in anyway with any info on this Tandy Johnson and Lucretia Legrand
or this John Wells and Elizabeth Holland it would be truely appreciated
