Hi Donna, I tell you I am so impressed and grateful for all the responses I have gotten to my message. I really didn't expect this. I am very grateful. Actually, the Roscoe Salyer you write about is not my grandfather. My grandfather was married to Laura Hampton (ironically also in 1906) in Magoffin county. My grandfather (Powell Roscoe Salyer (he rarely used "Powell") was 26 years old when he married in 1906. We know that he lived with his aunt and uncle (James E. and Tilithia Salyer) and brother (Hamilton Preston Salyer) when the 1900 census was taken. Our problem is that we cannot find any information about his father (possibly Richard or Dick Salyer). He may have been born in VA and we are going to search there now. I sometimes think it is amazing that my mom didn't know who her grandparents were but, then, I never met my grandparents either and know little about them. Again, I want to express my sincere appreciation to you for taking the time to do this research and to write me. God bless you and I hope that someday I may be able to return the kindness.
