Hi cousin Christy Chrysler, I have signed you up on the Kilgore Genealogy board. Everybody give her a hearty Kilgore welcome! You may post your messages to all our cousins by sending your messages to this URL address: Kilgore-L@Rootsweb.com I think I have found your line and can help you on this one. I went to the Internet and found a reference where your Clayton Mitchell Kilgore who married a Peggy Addington was possibly born in Wise Co., VA. I then went to the Wise Co., VA. Genweb site and found that a MITCHEL C. KILGORE married a MAGGIE ADDINGTON. I think this is your man (Mitchell Clayton Kilgore) rather than the other name. This marriage took place April 5, 1918. This site also shows this man’s parents as being a Raleigh Kilgore who appears to have been married several times. The marriage that pertains to you would be with the woman Nancy Ellen Dorton, daughter of Harvey and Elizabeth ??? Dorton. This marriage took place July 23, 1891. At this Genweb site, I then found that Raleigh Kilgore was the son of Nelson and Katey Kilgore. Here is the 1870 Census of Wise Co., VA. showing Nelson and Katey Kilgore 1870 Wise Co., VA.

Christy Welcome. I am also pretty new to the list. I only have 3 Kilgores I am looking for. I wish to find Mahalia Kilgore and her two sons James and Levi. I don't know her husband's name.

Hello Cousin, After I emailed you yesterday, I found much of this information on the Wise Co., VA site. It is nice to have it validated by someone else though. Thank you so much!! I was stuck on this line of my family because I never met my grandfather Curtis Mitchell Kilgore. He died just over a year ago, and I do not know anyone in his family. His daughter, my aunt, Terri and I are working on this together. It is "known" by the family that they have strong Cherokee blood lines, but I have yet to find that out. In fact what I have found would suggest otherwise. As it turns out, I have two lines of Kilgore in my tree. Here is my second line. 1. William Addington + Nancy Kilgore 2. James Robert Addington + Ferbia Roxia Anna Fleming 3. Margaret "Maggie" "Peggy" Addington + Mitchell Clayton Kilgore 4. Curtis Mitchell Kilgore + Dorthea "Dorothy" Keith 5. Arlene Jane "Janie" Kilgore + Allen Dean Cummings 6. Christy Cummings--me + Steven Chrysler 7. Aidan Chrysler Thank you all so much for the warm welcomes.
