Do you have any Mitchells married into Nelsons in your family tree? I have Mitchel(l), Nelson, Cearfoss, McCreary. Lambright is an Enon Valley, PA and East Palestine, OH name. There are some Thompsons buried in Hillsville Cemetery that I have not found any family for. I am not a Thompson researcher, I have been checking names of people buried in the Hillsville Cemetery in hopes of finding a relationship to my McCreary family buried there.
