For those of you researching Ritters out of Barren Count, etc., Kentucky, I thought that I would share the following information with you which I located in Marriage records of Franklin County, Virginia.This was in a book entitled Wingfield's Works which I found in the Virginia State Archives in Richmond, Virginia.The following Marriages were listed for Ritters and I believe that John Ritter and Delilah Wilson are the ones which I saw an excerpt about in Old Bible Records of Barren County, Kentucky:Ritter, John and Delilah Wilson, dau. John and Elizabeth, Mar. 18, 1793. Sur. Joseph Ritter;Ritter, Abraham and Catherine Kelly, dau. Wm., Mar. 7, 1791. Sur. John Kelly;Ritter, John and Eva Miller (this John passed away about 1801 - there is a copy of his will in the Virginia Archives), Aug. 7, 1787. Sur. Wm. Kelly;Ritter, Joseph and Mary Kelly, May 10, 1787, Sur. Wm. Rentfro.I thought that this might help clear up some questions that you might have.I believe that if I remember correctly that there might have been a David B. Ritter which was shown in the Old Bible Records of Barren County, Kentucky.I also believe that if you will check the forum on Casper Ritter that the name Bowman is connected to this man.I don't have the hard copies right here in front of me as I am getting ready to make a major move in the next couple of weeks and have stached most of these records away.Good Luck -I'll be interested in hearing how your search goes.
