Speaking of these Giles, VA Wilburns..Several years ago, another Wilburn researcher e-mailed me saying that he had great difficulty locating his great grandfather who was born somewhere in SW VA... I was only too happy to try to help, thinking his missing Wilburn should be easy to locate......... WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! I have considered that this missing Wilburn ....who had a son named George William Wilburn b 1873, might be a brother of your George Chapman Wilburn... Do you have any information re: the silbings of your great-grandfather? Any tidbits will be gratefully welcomed in many quarters. Evajean has been a big help too with the records that she shared with us... So anything that you can think of....please send on this website...thanks heaps.. Family is connected to Holders or Holdens...and later lived in Mason co WV....Thanks for everything! Hope you have a great new year! Warmest regards, Vikky in San Diego, PS...Your Woodson line has a fascinating history...real movers and shakers.
