Here's a gist of what we know so far: Evelyn Crantz, my wife's 1st cousin once removed, married a Clarence Marshall Peery circa 1920. Evelyn we believe was from Bluefield WV, the daughter of Mary "Mollie" Hodges and Harvey Crantz. It's possible that Mollie and Harvey lived in Tazewell County, but we know that Mollie's parents, sister and brother all lived in Bluefield WV, having moved there from Boones Mill VA sometime after the 1880 census. We found an Evelyn Peery on the Familysearch.org (Mormons) web site in the SSN index. This Evelyn was born in 1895 and died in Tazewell town area in 1978. That would be about the right timeframe for our Evelyn's birth as far as we can tell. Her mother, Mollie, was born in 1866. We also found a Clarence M. Peery, born in Sep 1896, Jeffersonville, Tazewell VA, on the familysearch.org IGI list for North America. We believe this is our Clarence and that the M stands for Marshall. His father was George (b. 1867) and his mother was Mary (b. 1879) and George's parents were Marshall (b. 1837) and Rebecca (b. 1847). Mary's birthplace is listed as Jeffersonville, Tazewell Va and George's as Tazewell Court, Tazewell VA. We found Marshall, Rebecca and family listed on the familysearch.org web site in the 1880 census. George's siblings, all younger than he, were Samuel, Nancy and Austin. The census district is listed as Jeffersonville. Also interesting is your county web site: http://www.rootsweb.com/~vatazewe/TCBI/TCBI.htm This lists a Marshall Peery born 1837 to a George and Nancy Peery. Sounds like the same Peery family to us. We don't know where Clarence and Evelyn were married, either Bluefield WV or Tazewell County, or when. We believe it took place sometime around 1920. We do know that had two children. Clarence Marshall Peery Jr. and Iris Peery. We don't know the birthdates of the children, but 1920s is the likely timeframe. We have been in touch with Ashley Nuckols, apparently a locally well-known genealogist in your county, and a Peery family relative, but so far she has not found a connection. I just happened across this web site in my search and decided to join your group. Finally, some of the Peery's in Tazewell County might recognize this information. You probably heard it from my wife, Carol, as she called nearly every Peery in Tazewell and Bluefield (VA and WV) trying to get a lead on her great aunt Mollie's family. She was pleased to find that everyone was very nice on the phone. This seems to hold true for southwest VA and southern WV. It makes her happy to know that she is related to people from such a friendly part of our country. Thank You for Your Time, John Otto Va Beach VA --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
