Merisha,

My brother-in-law's family comes from Dickinson County.  I have
researched them a little bit and have most of the collateral lines.  I
have some Elswicks but no Keens (either spelling).

There are two books that I used that might be helpful- one is a
genealogy of the Counts family as it covers many of the collateral lines
-_Some descendants of John Counts of Glade Hollow_ by Sutherland.
Second is a book of assembled oral histories done I believe in the 1930s
which I unfortunately can't remember the title of -I believe the word
lick was in the title-

You may be able to eliminate William Keens if you can't identify the
correct one.

Hope you are successful,

Marilyn Jackson
