Hi: I read your message and was delighted. I, too, descend from William Malone and Mary West. My great-grandmother was their daughter. Her name was Nancy Catherine Malone. I have seen it spelled Melone relating to her. She married William Weems and had my grandpa in 1850. His name was William D. Weems. they called him Billie Weems. He had my dad in 1903. I had looked a little into Mary West's parents, but had not looked at the Malones yet. Sure would like to share information with you, although you will have more than me, I believe. Let me know, will you?
