    1. [WVCEN] McDowell, 1920, Fain
    2. I'm searching for info on the following family. I'm including all info I think may be of help. How the family would be listed in 1920 is hard to predict due to the mother had reportedly run off with the traveling preacher and father then commited suicide. Oldest kids reportedly were raising the younger kids, and the very oldest may have been married and gone. It is uncertain whether they were in McDowell County yet in 1920, or if they were in Greenbriar or in Va, KY or NC. But Howard raised his children in McDowell County. Fain, Nellie, 20 Howard, 17 Albert or Frank, 15 Cassie, 13 Minnie, 10 Elwood, ? Bill, ? Leonard, 3 the family: Samuel H. Fain, dob: 19 Jun 1877 VA Rosa E.
