Around 1936-37, my oldest brother started school somewhere along what is now Union School Road near Burks Fork Church of the Brethren. Does anyone know what school that would have been and if the building still stands? He and I believe it was converted into a dwelling house. Bernie Hylton

WOW - what a sight. I tried the L of G website and I must say, for someone who can find their way around a computer, I found that site just a little difficult. I found the death records index and ended up with 90+ records for Reeds from Floyd County. What shocked me was the number of children, there were so many. The dates of death range from 1853-1893, and the cause of death is listed. I'm sure most of the genealogists out there have seen all this, but this was a real find to me. I haven't been able to tear myself away from it. My sister is the genealogist in the family, I just dapple in it. When we cleaned the Charlie Reed cemetery we found three children, two sisters and a brother that all died close to the same time and I found out on this website that they died from diphtheria. Keep in mind, that the information is only as good as the person entering it. I found a George listed as a female and a one year and eight year old listed as farmers. I'm sure some of the writing on the records is difficult to read also. If any of you haven't visited this site, I highly recommend it. If you want to know anything about a Reed death, I made an index from the list and I can look it up for you. Rena, thanks for telling us about it.

Rika Shepherd wrote: Hi Folks, There was a notice in the current issue, February 2008, of the Virginia Genealogical Society Newsletter pertaining to Virginia's chancery records. It states in part: "The Library of Virginia (LVA) is pleased to announce that the digital imaging of the King & Queen, New Kent, and Shenandoah County chancery causes is now complete. The images have been added to the Library's on-line Chancery Records Index at http://www.lva.lib.va.us/whatwehave/local/chancery/index.htm and are now available for searching through the LVA web site." You all might want to check the LVA web site and see what's there. I know of another county in Virginia that is waiting to get its chancery records digitized at the LVA. It all takes money and we're in a slow economy right now. It would be nice if a fund could be established to get certain counties done and people could donate to the fund for their counties of interest. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I believe only the index for Floyd is avaliable.

I was scanning some copies of marriage records and came across one that was in my data base. It was for Archabald Thompson s/o William & Cahterine Thompson and Emeline Catherine Thompson d/o Randolph & Catherine Thompson. They were married in Floyd County 10 Feb 1859 by Owen Sumner. He was 24 and she was 20 when they got their license. Ive racked my poor ole brain, such as it is, and can't figure for the life of me who they are. I can't find any of those names in my genealogy data base. Can any one give me a clue as I have no idea why I have the copy of their marriage reocrd.

When we have the chance, we are going to sit down with a cousin, and see if she knows who some of these might be.

Maybe we can help identify some of the photos. If we coyld post scans on the Floyd site, Maybe a relative will come forth. It worked before. I can make a page for them.

Carol, You're so very right - LABEL THOSE PHOTOS!! If you reach the point that you want to throw them away, please think about donating them to the Floyd County Historical Society. It's remotely possible that somebody, sometime, might identify them. Even so, rather than tossing them out completely, they're beautiful for the dress/auto/home/whatever of the era. They can be put in the upcoming (someday!) museum with the family from whence they came named, which would be a lead.

Carol, I know what you mean. My mother whom I loved dearly, had a bad habit of puting cute saying under the picture in her albums and not namem=s. I was able to find out whot the 2 were in one pictur she had mared "Virginia 1921". I had made contact with one of Dad's 1st cousins and she told me who they were. One was my Dad and the other 2 wer her and one of her brothers. I don't have anyone left who can indetify any of them. I am the oldest that is left of my fmaily and have no aunts or uncles and only a very few 1st cousins left. So I would incourage any one who has blank pictures to get older relatives to look at them to identify those in the pictures.
