John Jesse Wade Leffel and Nancy Virginia Caldwell have a Ruba Leffel? Such seems to be the case, according to Craig Births on Ancestry... Vince

Were there two Mary Etta Leffel's, both born in the same year, a month or so apart, one to William and Elmira Leffel, the other to Samuel Leffel and Sarah A. Craft Leffel? Vince

This is a name I did not have... Dollie Leffel. Was there such a one as the daughter of John (Jesse) Wade Leffel and Nancy Virginia Caldwell Leffel? The birth date given on the Craig Births was January 24, 1890. Thanks, Vince

Steve, I've had the same problem and spoke with a certified computer tech (my grandson). It's your server. I'm switching from mine. You can get it through cable TV and it's super fast and no problems. I'm checking on it tomorrow. Every area is different but you might consider it. A lot of indivdual's doing genealogy on various lists I belong to, have mentioned numerous problems aol.

When individual's try to access a site and have difficulty, the problem is too many individual's are trying to access at the same time. Just like when you get a bizzy signal on the phone, only thing, you don't get a clue. Try later. Vincent Edward Summers wrote: > This does not seem to be functional at present.

This B. Ernest Carper is listed as the child of Charles and Elizabeth Carper. Now, I wonder. Byrd Emmet Carper was born 1874, though not listed by me as that month. Is this name a different person, or what? Vince

This person, whoever they may be, is listed by the new online database Craig County, Virginia Births, 1853-1896 as the daughter of O.W. and A. I believe this to be Oscar Washington and Amanda Leffel Carper. Does anyone know who this E. Carper is? Thanks, Vince

They are working now. Great! Vince

This does not seem to be functional at present. Ancestry is good at this. They promise something, and then 1/2 the time it does not work. Are others having trouble with this?

Vince I got through and half way while printing I got bumped off line and then was told I could not get back in. Also missed you at the Eakin reunion last Sunday. Steve

Somehow, dear friends, I lost the email address of Mary Curnutte! This may not seem a tragedy, upon first inspection. We all do this. But she sent me pages of ***PHOTOS*** of ancestors! Horrors. How could I lose this. Mary, if you see this post, won't you contact me, to let me know? Vince

Hi: I would like to order the will of my gggrandfather however I am not quite sure if he died in Craig or Montgomery Co. Does anyone have a will book that could look up: Mark Bigler Sessler died - 8/6/1892 somewhere down there...........I understand my great grandmother is mentioned in the will. Also, if found, does anyone have the address or know how to obtain a will from either courthouse? Thanks so much, Debi
