Hi Joe, good to have you back. A fellow researcher found the notice of Zack's divorce in NC records. In 1800, Zack asked for a divorce from "Rhody" who had left hime several years before and was reported married in KY. I found the 1793 marriage of Zachariah "Moman" Candler to Rhoda Pelham in the Green County, KY marriage book #1, and I found a 1798 marriage of Rhoda Candler to Richard Carlisle also in Green County. Perhaps the reason that no one found the marriage in KY records was because the transcription says Momancandler. Luckily, I found it doing a web search where the c-a-n-d-l-e-r part showed up. And now we know he had a middle name as well which cinched it for me (even before the 1800 divorce data). Finally, this proves that Zack married Mary Boon after 1800 sometime.
