[Genealib] Anybody know about Kentucky

[Tracy Luscombe]

A patron asked me about the 1830 census. One area in West KY, instead of
being labeled with a county name, is referred to as "South of the
Cumberland River". Anybody know why this was used instead of a county
name. I checked a few sources I have about Kentucky and censuses and
didn't find anything.
