My Grandfather Colonel Buel Combs was born in Clayhole, Ky. in l871 and left there sometime around 1900. I have heard a story that he shot a black man and the Sheriff gave him one day to get out of town. I think this story is true but I don't have any more information about it. Does this sound familiar to anyone out there? Thank you. Helen Scheid jorhscheid@prodigy.net
