Hi Walt: Sorry, I wasn't any help. "Hoye's Pioneer Families of Garrett County", page 434; 'Children of Michael Paugh'- Joseph H., William H. (b. June 3, 1818, m. Matilda Harvey), Lewis F., Thomas D., Simon, Catharine, (m. Andrew Sollars), Malinda, (m. Neil Kite)........" The Paugh family history has Joseph H. Paugh married to Malinda Kite, but shows no supporting marriage record. I have Joseph H. Paugh (son of Michael, Jr.; nothing to indicate his middle name was "Henan", other than the fact that he had a son "John Henan" in the 1860 census); married to "Malinda" (unknown). If Hoye was right, Joseph H. Paugh no doubt married a cousin.
