In conducting his research, he was extremely fortunate to have interviewed several of the oldest living members of many of the principal families, in addition to having access to published sources and original records. Following are the names of the Kentucky and Virginia pioneers who figure in Mr. Van Meter's account: Allan, Bigelow, Bruce, Campbell, Clay, Cunningham, Field, Garrard, Hall, Hamilton, Hanna, Harness, Harrison, Hockaday, Holloway, Hull, Johnson, Johnston, Kleiser, Lewis, McNeill, Moore, Moss, Nicholas, Payne, Pettit, Phillips, Prewitt, Rodes, Smith, Stonestreet, Swoope, Van Meter, West, Wetherill, Williams, Willis, Wright, and Yerkes.
