Can you give me alittle info regarding your family background. I have gather info on my grandparents but their are some that I have no ideal who they married or what relationship they are. Some of the one that I am trying to locate is a Robert Bolling. He may have been my grandfathers brother or maybe his uncle. My grandfathers name was pierson, his fathers name was Elijah or ES Bolling, his fathers name was Sam Bolling. they came from wise west virginia and moved into the Letcher co area, mostly Elk creek. I know that dad had some family there still. his oldest brother Liege whom was killed in the mines had several children, including one that we frequently heard "Arnold". I also think that Dad and maybe one brother had other children that were not mentioned to our families. Be careful what you did up! I would love to correspond with you regarding your family to see if we have a connection. thank you connie Bowlilng Rice
