Rupert said his grandmother, Clemmie Tynes, told him that his grandfather and his family moved from Daviess Co., Ky. to Marshall Co. when he was about nine months old. That would put them in Marshall Co. sometime in 1890. She also told me that they made the trip down the Ohio River by keel boat. However, as the boat was docking somewhere in Marshall Co., the boat sank. The family only lost a few things supposedly because the boat sank slowly. My grandmother also told me that she thought there were other families who traveled down the river with the Allgoods. She can't remember exactly who the other families were, but she thinks they were some of the Downs, Powells, Hoovers, Waltrips and/or Halls.
