There is a John Kidd in the 1810 Livingston County, Ky and in the 1840 Fentress Co, Tn census.This John Kidd was about 55 years of age in 1840.
The census indicated that Thomas S. Kidd and John Kidd (1815) who married Melissa Stephens were born in Ohio.Seems like David Kidd also was reported to have been born in Ohio.If this is true then Larkin Kidd, maybe Sherod Kidd, and even William Kidd were in Ohio sometime around 1810.A William Kidd purchased land on the Little South Fork River(Creek)around 1815.
I think we have sufficient prove that the Kidds of the Big South Fork Country came form Tazewell County, Virginia.
