In April 2017, I decided to do some online genealogical research to learn more about the paternal side of my family. Somewhat providentially, I had the good fortune to discover an online document that has revealed a great deal of information about my family’s Kentucky roots. I’m referring to “The Peakes of Nelson County, Kentucky,” which was researched and written by retired University of Kentucky professor Dr. Robert Zwicker and his cousin, John Stewart. Regrettably, John had passed away less than a year before my discovery, so I never had an opportunity to thank him for his years of dedication and commitment to this well-researched, long-term genealogical project. However, I have been able to contact Bob Zwicker, and we have been communicating for several years about our familial connections.
