We had,as I remember,Nathan Morgan's Jr-Sr and Enoch Morgan a few miles from the Ohio River,here in s Clermont Co,Oh. Say,1805,for 1814,son Enoch Morgan bought my Capt-Lt-Rev-JP George Brown big,or pulpit Bible at his estate sale. Couple ladies told me about them 20 years ago. Had a circut migration that started at the Welsh Tract of Pecander Hundred,n Del-Cecil Co Md. iron mining Welsh colony of 1710. But you don't show Welsh 1st names. Maybe even Jacob and Valentine might be Germanic. Thomas Shelton,MARRYING JP ,of Aberdeen,Ohio's marriages,in most part,were put in the Mason Co Historical Soc library,Sutton St, Maysville,by Pat Donaldson Mills. JP Massie Beasley's marriages ,OF Aberdeen,Oh are said to be lost,except those recorded in their home county by the young couple. 1863 was when WV was cut from Va.
