I recently received very scant info on a Hugh Sidell who:

In 1786 signed a petition to create the town of Washington, KY (near
Maysville)

In 1786 signed a petition to organize a county from Bourbon Co.

In 1787 signed petition to divide Bourbon Co. (I believe Mason Co. was
partly derived from Bourbon Co.)

Does anyone have information or website links on Hugh Sidell or the early
history of Washington (town) or of Bourbon Co.? Any help or direction would be
greatly appreciated! My Sidell family has been our family's "brick wall" for
many years and this is the first time i've heard of Hugh Sidell and feel he
may be the father or Thomas Sidell/Sidles who later bought land in Nicholas
Co., KY in the early 1800s.

Thank you!
