I believe the William Sites that died 19 Oct 1966 (he actually died over in Huntington, WV and has a death record in BOTH states....not uncommon in that area) is not the one that was married to Beatrice Johnson. This Wm. Sites wife's name was Lucretia (more commonly known as Cretia). He was the son of Hugh and Cloe Ferris Sites and was born and raised in the Chesapeake/Proctorville area. Cretia died before Wm and he is listed as a widower on his death records. He and Cretia farmed and owned a small grocery store up in the east end of Chesapeake for many years and they went to Chesapeake Christian Church (when I was a child....they may have attended other churches at some time). I have found the three sons of your Wm., but have been unable to find Wm.'s death info. I did find his WWI Draft Registration which list his birth date as 14 Feb 1892 in Lawrence Co., Ohio. He was living in the Columbus area 05 Jun 1917 with a wife and 3 children (Pearl, Frank, and Ralph). He was a boiler maker at Carnegie Steel Co. The Wm. b. 1891 d. 1966 also registered for the draft 05 Jun 1917, was living in Proctorville with his wife and 1 child (Raymond). Both are listed in the 1920 census. I hope I haven't confused the issue too much. I wish our forefather's had left us a little better "road map". I've been trying to untangle my Chapman (3 lines and counting) and Byas/Byus/Bias (at least 2 lines) for years! My frustration level gets high that my kids automatically know when they call that I'm at my wits end! Good luck!
