Dear listers, I am annotating the 1860 Bath census with maiden names, and some have proved elusive. Does anybody know the maiden names (with sources, please) of the following women found in the 1860 Bath county census? I have checked Bath and Pocahontas county marriage records, Highland marriages 1847-1853, the post-1850 Rockbridge marriage book online, and am in the process of checking marriages in surrounding counties, but thought I'd check with fellow researchers also, since it seems like one of you must have these people in your files! (I've also checked Morton's History of Highland co. online for leads.) These are all names I have *not* sent to these lists before. The dates mean "married in or before this year", based on the age of their eldest child in the census. ADKINS, James & Virginia/Jenny/Jane, abt 1852 (not in >1850 Rockbridge bk) AILSTOCK, Levi & Elizabeth -1854 (not in Rockbridge >1850 bk online) BISHOP, William H. & Mary E. -1857 BLAKEY, Judson S. & Mary -1857 try Greenbrier (can't find in 1850) BRIDGET, James & Angeline -1855 (not in Ritchie or >1850 Rockbridge bk) BRIGHT, Peter & Elizabeth 1828-1846 BROOKS, George & Mary, -1848 BROWN, Elijah F. & Mary -1860 (not Rockbridge >1850 BRYAN/BRIAN, Cyrus P. & Mary, 1850-1860 try Campbell; not in Alleghany, Rockbridge BURKLEY/BERKLEY, John & Jane (Drumheller?) -1850 CLARK, John N. & __ -1854 CONNAUGHT, John & Henrietta -1854 DAWSON, George B. & Grizzey, -1848 DEMPSEY, John & Mary -1853 DRUMHELLER, John R. & Elizabeth 1840-1860 GIBSON, David & Elizabeth -1855 he old (2nd mrg), she young; not Rockbridge GILLEN, Norman & Patsy/Martha -1856 GOODE, Thomas & Mary Ann -1825 try Mecklenburg, Norfolk, Roanoke I'm offering free lookups in the 1850 VA and 1860 Bath/Highland census in return for any help, and a free annotated 1860 Bath census book (when it's published) if you send me 5 or more maiden names with sources. Thanks heaps for any help or pointers, Holly ------------------ Holly Wanless Cochran Please visit my 3 websites: Hollyhock Press: http://id.mind.net/~cochran/hollyhock/ My Wanless Family Genealogy: http://id.mind.net/~cochran/ralphdsc/ Wan(d)less One-Name Study: http://id.mind.net/~cochran/wanlessweb/
