I have William Keene b) abt 1843 married to Nancy Ratliff b) abt 1850, I show them having 14 children (Jacob, Louise, Harvey Jessee, Barbara, Charles "Charlie" E, William, John H, Patty Caroline, Robert O, Marenda A, Louisa, Elizabeth, Shadrack E, Bessie L). I have some dates on these if you want them. The George (William) that you refer to in your message that was married to Louise E Ratliff I believe is actually George Whitten Keen. I have George Whitten Keen married to Mary Elizabeth Meadows on 31 Jan 1895 in Buchanan Co, VA (I have a copy of this marriage license-this marriage license states that George was the son of Jas L and Letitia Keen). I believe that this is James Logan Keene and Lutissa "Luticia" Vandyke. George and Mary had 8 children. Then George married Louise E Ratliff on 5 Nov 1903 in Buchanan Co, VA. If any of this sounds familiar please feel free to email me privately.! Thanks, Vicky
