we lose that alexander and elizabeth erskine after 1860 in monroe co. w.va along with all of there childern....none of them show up on the 1870 census at all...by then all of there childern would have been of age too be married.. all we know for sure is that archibald m. erskine was in the civil war... so did this family move after war and ended up in ohio with other kin folk. we have even search the death records for monroe co.w va.. and cant find them listed either... this family is still a complete mystery as too what happen too them.. maybe we will get lucky soon and find something on them.... with any luck... ***hey celia if you still have access too census for gen-library check and see if you cant find archibald erskine living in ohio in 1870 or 1880..just a suggestion*** patsy :) ps.. **celia id really love too chat with you lady. if yu have a few minutes one day.... just let me know something...** __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
