    3. Hi, Folks, In honor of Black History Month, thought I'd share this tidbit spotted in Samuel Wiley's History of Monongalia pub'd in 1883. I was looking in the section on the Clinton District for the KISNER family requested this morning and found, instead, the following on p. 610: "Henry Dolton, a colored man, who had fought in the Revolutionary war, was among the early settlers in this district. He raised three sons --- Bethuel, Levi, and John. His remains lie buried in the woods a mile from clinton Furnace, and an oak tree over a foot in diameter grows on his grave." Best regards, Jane ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jane McCann Walsh [email protected]
