MO (same page, 295), Martin in the same county and state, p. 307, John in Polk Co. MO, p. 503. There is a Margret V in Iowa, also -- Des Moines Co., p 464. In a search using Bash?r, I got one likely prospect in WV: CHRISTAIN BASHAR, Ohio Co., 5th W. Wheeling Twp., page 280. Now, in the 1880 LDS transcription, I see 2 McBee women who were born within 5 years of 1857 in OH, and living in WV. One was Sophia McBee (husband Jesse) in Hancock Co, and the other Sarah Ann Bee in Union Co. (husband Eudolphuas BEE!) There were no Bash* women born within 5 years of 1857 in OH, and living in WV in the LDS transcription. Here are the details of the McBee women and their families: Census Place: Grant, Hancock, West Virginia Source: FHL Film 1255403 National Archives Film T9-1403 Page 52D Relation Sex Marr Race Age Birthplace Jesse MCBEE Self M M W 39 OH Occ: Farm Laborer Fa: OH Mo: OH Sophia MCBEE Wife F M W 28 OH Occ: Keeping House Fa: OH Mo: OH Leonora MCBEE Dau F S W 11 OH Fa: OH Mo: OH Mary MCBEE Dau F S W 8 WV Fa: OH Mo: OH William MCBEE Son M S W 6 WV Fa: OH Mo: OH Charles MCBEE Son M S W 4 WV Fa: OH Mo: OH Ruth MCBEE Dau F S W 3M WV Fa: OH Mo: OH John MCBEE Son M S W 1 WV Fa: OH Mo: OH Census Place: Union, Ritchie, West Virginia Source: FHL Film 1255413 National Archives Film T9-1413 Page 328B Relation Sex Marr Race Age Birthplace Eudolphuas BEE Self M M W 27 WV Occ: Farmer Fa: --- Mo: --- Sarah Ann BEE Wife F M W 19 OH Occ: Keeps House Fa: OH Mo: OH Delpha BEE Dau F S W 2 WV Fa: WV Mo: OH Leslie L.
