Here's a pretty good place to start.

Lithnics Material Types

There's a huge variety of different lithics in Ky. I'm sure you could get alot of help here by simply posting materials for I.d.

Buy the book DrDave listed above. It is the Bible for flint and chert types of the Midwest.

Here's you a link to it.
