reply to John Buckingham...........John your reply may be very useful to me. My ggGrandfather Benjamin moved to Hardin County about 1833. (Son of James and Elizabeth Rightmire) Long after Benjamins death a short biography was published and the information that his family was from Morgan County Ohio has been suspected as being in error for some time. Especially since census reports say James, Elizabeth and there two oldest children were born in Virginia. Someone must have made an error somewhere in the biography. I already know that there was a Rightmire family in the Morgantown area in that time period. (also in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania) so your reply may have narrowed my search for me. Can I ask what name you are researching from that area.....Alice
