She died (of toxemia) while expecting their first child. It so devastated him that he NEVER married again. I do not know who her parents were - my aunt says they "may" have been WILLIAM & BETTY VIAR. She is buried in an unmarked grave in a VIAR family cemetery on the Old Wrightshop Road in Madison Heights, Amherst county, VA. Do you have her in your records? > > Thanks! > Debbie Ullom > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Buddy Viers" <[email protected]> > Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2002 19:45:03 -0500 > To: [email protected] > Subject: [VAAMHERS-L] Amherst Marriage Record Book > > > > Hello Group: This is my first posting.
