I get a lot of requests from people wanting information on their Ruark families and knowing some names, but not the locations. Until more information can be found on them, I'm going to go ahead and put them under these "Unknown location" pages. Once we can pin down where they lived, we'll move them to the appropriate place.

James Ruark md Rachel Cropper. It's believed that both were born in Maryland, and it's possible that they raised their family in Kentucky.

• Jeanette Ruark (1823-1888) - md Harrison Darnell
• Joseph Ruark (1825- ) - md Mary Jane Himes
• James Harvey Ruark (1826- ) - md Lucinda Hunt
• Frances Marion Ruark (1827-1902) - md Martha Ann Boggs
• Thomas M. Ruark (1834- ) - md Nancy Ruark (1839- ). We find another Nancy Ruark, also born in 1839 who was raised in Mason County Kentucky. We don't have marriage info for her - could this be the same one?

If you see anything wrong here, or if you want anything added, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
