O'siyo,
I'm on a genealogy list that is currently dealing with who originally
inhabited the land now known as Kentucky. I recall seeing a map, in
a National Geographic Atlas I think, and that part of the country is
designated as "original people unknown" or some such language. Someone
else on the list thought that this land was used for hunting grounds by
a number of tribes, but that no one actually lived there. I'm not a
strong history scholar -- does anyone know the answer to this question?
Thanks,
-- Kim
