October 11, 2003, a most wonderful thing has happened. Don Warf descendent of John Hood, Lorenzo's father, drove 3 hours to the Laurel County Courthouse for me. His e-mail to me October 11, 2003
Hello Sharlee, Well this might be the best e-mail you've gotten in a long time. I'm at my brother's home in KY., and on my way down yesterday I stopped in Laurel County court house and got you a copy of Lorenzo D. Hood and Emily Adams marriage bond.
Now as a plus to that there was a permission slip from her parents to marry. They are listed as John Adams and wife Elizabeth. Good find for you !!!!! A Charles Adams was listed as witness.
Also in the registery book was listed a John B. Adams and wife Rosa Wiggins which I got a copy of. Doesn't say who his parents were but I suspect John also.
Also copied stuff on John Hood and Elizabeth Jennings Hood.
Also on the registery page was a record for Noel or Joel Adams (I don't have that in front of me right now) he is probably a brother also???? I didn't see that until after I left the court house so I don't have a copy of that record. Send me your address and I'll mail all this to you. I'll be down here until next week sometime. later Don Warf

Don Warf also sent me copies of page 16 & 17 ledger sheets shows Date of License Parties Names on 16 and on 17 Witness and Certificate of marriage. "Witness Charles Adams" Page 17; I do certify that the couple married in the ____ granted license hath been lawfully joined in matimony by me this 4th day of April 1839. signed Thos Robertson"
