Hi Fellow Ancestor Searchers, This is a first attempt to use the Puget Sound resource as a means to try to locate family members. I am told that one of my Uncles spent most of his life in WA. His name was Lilburn (Leburn) Pilkenton and was born March 7, 1904, in VA. He had a son named Donald and that's the extent of my knowledge about him. The second relative, a Great Uncle, that I'm looking for data on is Nero Pilkenton. He was born about May 1869, married Lizzie Whitaker in 1909 and Nettie G. Sowards at some later date. I have been told that Nero and his family may have lived in the Centralia area. Children of Nero are said to have been Lee and Lula. I would be most be most appreciative if someone has more knowledge about these individuals, or can point me to the most logical place(s) to begin searching for more data. Thanks in advance for any help you may offer. An Oregon transplant with roots in Wise County, VA.
