One of my goals is trying to determine the location (County) and date of when Leslie Virgil Adams died. One version of family folklore was that Leslie Virgil Adams passed away(accidental death)18 months after my father was born in Charleston West Virginia, which would put his death around 1935. However, I did locate a newspaper article (Jul 29, 1938, Newspaper:Charleston Gazette) with a wedding announcement of a Leslie Virgil Adams to a Beatrice Atkinson. Not sure if the folklore is correct or the 1938 newspaper Leslie is my dad's father or not. Are you related to basil? Would appreciate any additional info for Leslie Virgil Adams. My middle name is "Leslie" and was told it was the first name of my grandfather confirmed by the WV birth certificate I have on file. Thank you and appreciate the assistance.
