Hi All,
Sorry I did not get to answer this question until now but I wanted to make sure that I had all of my facts straight.The original question was:

>Wonder who she is related to???

>We all would be interested in knowing who Renee is related to. :)
Apparently Heather Renee French is my Half 2nd Cousin, Once Removed (using my handy FTM relationship calculator).She is the great-granddaughter of Hugh French and Nancy Buckner.Hugh I believe was the first born of Charles R. French (1858-1939) and Mahala Kabler (1859-1889) from Robertson Co, KY [I descend from Charles 2nd wife Liddia Wiggins (1866-1928)].Charles is the son of Hugh French (1824-1877) and Margaret Moran (1827-1901) of Fleming/Harrison Co, KY.Hugh is the son of James French (1797-1841) and Rebecca Applegate (1801-??) from Mason Co, KY.James French is the original French in Heather's direct line that immigrated to Kentucky from Loudon Co, VA.Heather's line is therefore in the French Family Association Chart #36 being compiled by Margaret Amundson.Her French family lineage in Kentucky is in the counties of Mason, Bracken, Robertson, and Harrison.
