I just recieved a copy of my gg-grandfather's death certificate. His name was R.G. Thomas. Some documents say the R stands for Rice and others say Robert. His marriage record in Bland Co., Va says he was born in Wythe Co., Va. He died in Bland Co., Va. (DOB=3 August 1851, DOD=2 Feb. 1922.) I know he was married in Bland, and at one point lived in Princeton, WV. He was married to Susan Virginia Woodyard, daughter of Almarine Woodyard and Jane Thorn. I believe R.G. to have a brother, Charles. Charles was born in Bland in 1848, married to Nannie Thompson in Bland and he died 1915 in Bland. On both R.G. and Charles marriage records, their parents are listed as John and Katie Thomas. On R.G.'s death certificate his father is listed as John Thomas born in Mingo Co., WV and his mother is Katie Dillon born Pulaski Co., Va. By the way I figure it they had to have been born in the 1820's or earlier. This is the only info that has been found on John and Katie thus far. No marriage records, no census records, no birth records. My question is, Does any one out there know anything else about John or Katie? Beth
