Hello Everyone, I need some help.....boy, don't everyone... I don't know much about my John, but he was my GGG Grandfather. I have no parents or siblings for him. He married Matilda Dove on April 16, 1832 in Pittsylvania Co., VA. They headed west shortly after they were married, into Monroe Co., VA now WV, they had children there(according to their POB on marriage records). I didn't find them in the 1840 Monroe Co., VA Census???? John then received a land grant in 1849-50 for Braxton Co., VA now WV, so I presume they headed north from Monroe Co. VA(WV)(?) to Braxton Co., VA(WV). They were in the 1850 Braxton Co., VA(WV) Census, he was listed as 46 from VA, so he would have been born Ca. 1804. They resided in Braxton Co. and Clay Co. WV, until their deaths. There are also stories of Native American Ancestry in our family, too... If any one has any info or can help in any way, it will be appreciated. Thank You Cindy Eagle Pettey
