Brian, STATLER is it also STOLLAR Seems I have seen it both ways. Let me know cousin maybe we cousin again. Susi

Brian, You may be interested to know that, late in the CW, the 3d WV Cav was assigned to the Division under the command of Gen Geo. A. Custer. George's 1st cousin, James William Custer, was fighting in the 3d WV Cav earlier in the war and was KIA in May 1863, during the Jones-Imboden Raid in the Shinston area, a month before WV actually became a state. The Custer GAR Post in Clarksburg was named in James' memory, not that of his much more famous cousin. God Bless the USA!

Andrew Jackson Statler married Prudence Henderson, who was the daughter of my g-g-g grandparents, David and Elizabeth (Morris) Henderson. I'm descended from Prudence Henderson's sister Charlotte, who married Alpheus Garrison.

Hello! I just thought that I'd update everyone on the "Head of Household" census index for 1930 that Mariana is transcribing. To date, we have indexes for the following enumeration districts of Harrison County: Sardis- ED #33 & ED #34 Eagle- ED #26 & ED #28 Coal- ED# 24 I've also just transcribed & posted the 1930 census for the West Virginia Industrial Girls Home, which was a correctional facility for the state of WV. This facility was located in Salem, and the inmates consisted of teenaged girls from throughout the state. More records online include: the Harrison County Poor House censuses from years 1850-1930; the1920 & 1930 Children's Home censuses; Patti Hickman's death records for 1853-1903, and approx 54 cemetery readings! http://www.rootsweb.com/~wvharris/rec-index.htm There is literally a ton of information on the Harrison Co GenWeb site. If you haven't visited us lately, I invite you to do so~ Happy hunting!

TO ALL FRIEND & FAMILY: I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT THE VAST MAJORITY OF MESSAGES THAT I SEND OUT HAVE A RELATIVELY LOW IMPORTANCE LEVEL.. IT MAY NOT APPEAR TO BE SO, BUT THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE HAS THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF IMPORT -- AT LEAST IN MY OPINION! -------------- LEE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------ "DO NOT FORGET" I sat in a movie theater watching "Schindler's List," asked myself, "Why didn't the Jews fight back?" Now I know why. I sat in a movie theater, watching "Pearl Harbor" and asked myself, "Why weren't we prepared?" Now I know why. Civilized people cannot fathom, much less predict, the actions of evil people. On September 11, dozens of capable airplane passengers allowed themselves to be overpowered by a handful of poorly armed terrorists because they did not comprehend the depth of hatred that motivated their captors. On September 11, thousands of innocent people were murdered because too many Americans naively reject the reality that some nations are dedicated to the dominance of others. Many political pundits, pacifists and media personnel want us to forget the carnage. They say we must focus on the bravery of the rescuers and ignore the cowardice of the killers. They implore us to understand the motivation of the perpetrators. Major television stations have announced they will assist the healing process by not replaying devastating footage of the planes crashing into the Twin Towers. I will not be manipulated. I will not pretend to understand. I will not forget. I will not forget the liberal media who abused freedom of the press to kick our country when it was vulnerable and hurting. I will not forget that CBS anchor Dan Rather preceded President Bush's address to the nation with the snide remark, "No matter how you feel about him, he is still our president." I will not forget that ABC TV anchor Peter Jennings questioned President Bush's motives for not returning immediately to Washington, DC and commented, "We're all pretty skeptical and cynical about Washington." And I will not forget that ABC's Mark Halperin warned if reporters weren't informed of every little detail of this war, they aren't "likely -- nor should they be expected -- to show deference." I will not isolate myself from my fellow Americans by pretending an attack on the USS Cole in Yemen was not an attack on the United States of America. I will not forget the Clinton administration equipped Islamic terrorists and their supporters with the world's most sophisticated telecommunications equipment and encryption technology, thereby compromising America's ability to trace terrorist radio, cell phone, land lines, faxes and modem communications. I will not be appeased with pointless, quick retaliatory strikes like those perfected by the previous administration. I will not be comforted by "feel-good, do nothing" regulations like the silly "Have your bags been under your control?" question at the airport. I will not be influenced by so called,"antiwar demonstrators" who exploit the right of expression to chant anti-American obscenities. I will not forget the moral victory handed the North Vietnamese by American war protesters who reviled and spat upon the returning soldiers, airmen, sailors and Marines. I will not be softened by the wishful thinking of pacifists who chose reassurance over reality. I will embrace the wise words of Prime Minister Tony Blair who told Labor Party conference, "They have no moral inhibition on the slaughter of the innocent. If they could have murdered not 7,000 but 70,000, does anyone doubt they would have done so and rejoiced in it? There is no compromise possible with such people, no meeting of minds, no point of understanding with such terror. Just a choice: defeat it or be defeated by it. And defeat it we must!" I will force myself to: ------hear the weeping ------feel the helplessness ------imagine the terror ------sense the panic ------smell the burning flesh ------experience the loss ------remember the hatred. I sat in a movie theater, watching "Private Ryan" and asked myself, "Where did they find the courage?" Now I know. We have no choice.

So far as I know, there isn't any match, but who knows what will turn up. I show a George Arnold (but not Wawshington), son of Isaac and Sarah Morton Arnold b 1737 in Richmond, Va. area and he died in 1833 but don't have where. No Samuel anywhere and these Arnold's go back to Rappahannock Co., Va. (Old Rappahannock near Richmond that is in 1649) Let me know if you ever think there may be a match. You might try Louise Righman if you haven't been in touch with her before. She has a lot of Arnold research. lrighman@westvirginia.net Good luck, Betty ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roy & Rosalie Miller" <roymiller@wyoming.com> To: <VA-Harrison-Monongalia-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2002 10:22 AM Subject: Re: [VA-Har-Mon] Genealogy Fair > Hi Betty, I could not make a connection.

Hi, My husband's family included Louisa " Kitturah" Arnold, born 14 Jun 1812, daughter of James Jackson and Tresea Board Arnold of Gilmer County area (which was probably Lewis County then)..
