Based on her tombstone in GILMER Co WV, her dates of birth & death are March 22, 1839 - September 28, 1915. On January 1, 1861, Martha Ann married John W. Wright in BARBOUR Co. VA. After this union, I can follow them perfectly through to their dimise. I have, however, read through every 1850 & 1860 FITZWATER census in the state of Virginia & cannot find Martha Ann. There is a child named Hannah Cruikshanks in one of the households that would be the 'right' age (age 11 in 1850), but I don't want to use too much imagination. Can anyone help me out there?? Thanks in advance- Kristy in VA
