Hi: In I was reviewing the above last night, I made an interesting discovery. For the period stated, there were 251 people listed as having died in Logan Co. Of that number, 87 people - primarily died in the years 1875 or 76. Cause listed most often was Sore Throat; some said dyptheria, which I'm sure was the real cause of the sore throat notations. In a 2 yr period, that is almost 35% of total deaths reported over the 20 yr period. Another year that was significantly hit by dyptheria was 1885, but deaths were no where nearly as high. I would suspect that adjoining counties may have had similar stats. Families located in Logan Co 1870 census (and possibly adjacent counties) that were missing children in 1880 census - this could well be the reason. BTW, I do not sub to the Logan List; perhaps someone on this List who does could forward the info. Source: Logan Co, WV Birth & Deaths 1872-1892 Compiled by: Donna L Brown. This book is probably still available for purchase. Her address: P.O. Box 188, Bruno, WV 25611. Gloria [email protected]

My brother and I will be in WV in middle of Sept to research our Hickman line. We are desended from Sotha/Thomas/Maxamelia/Thomas/Milton/Myrle (our grandmother). When I was there about 4-5 years ago I stayed in a little motel just north of highway 50 - between West Union and Clarksburg. I can't find the name of the motel. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thanking y'all in advance Lynn B, Gammon

Hi Does anyone have any info. on NANCY CACKLER FARLEY I dont no the year . She Married Isiah Farley Thats all i know EMMA

I am researching the full GOSNEY family in the hopes I can locate my g.g.grandfather - William Gosney's parents. My William was born in VA in 1788. Big state at that time. First located in Clermont Co., OH when married and owned land. Later moved to KY. Please look thru your databases and any mention of GOSNEY, I would love to hear about. They do show up in the most remote areas. Name also spelled GOSNAY / GAUSNEY / GAWSNEY. May all of your brick walls come tumbling down. Beth Shields (FL) grand daughter of a Gosney.

Hello: I live in St Mary's County Maryland which is 40 miles SE of Washington DC. We have a huge Mattingly population here. I believe that Mattingly was one of the original founding names of Maryland. Our county was settled in 1634 and the Mattingly family has stayed and intermarried here. Maryland keeps its old records at the Hall of Records in Annapolis (I think). I am not sure because my family is all from WV. I moved here as a child and don't do Maryland research. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Sunday, August 15, 1999 2:19 PM Subject: [WVA] Moorefield, WVA >Hi, everyone!

Hello! Was really quite surprised to see that my GGF was from Moorefield, West Virginia...always thought that he was, indeed, from St. Mary's County, Southern Maryland...and, indeed, maybe they will be traced to there way back when! Thanks for responding to my posting...I appreciate any suggestions/support I can get and would be most happy to share my information on Thomas J. Mattingly born in Moorefield, West Virginia with any others who are also looking for genealogy information on that Moorefield, WVA family or extended family...thanks! Elizabeth

Hello, My name is Lana Jewell Self. I am looking for my information about my grandmother's family. Her father was Edgar Hale and he died when she was very little, about 1919. He was married to Minnie Dexter Epperly. If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it.

Is anyone researching any of the THOMPSONs that settled in Cabell Co.? Some of these THOMPSONs are buried with my family of THOMPSONs in Springhill Cemetery in Huntington, does anyone know anything about them??? Luther, listed above, Josephani, d. 30 Jun 1890, he is a male, age 26 years,10 months,24 days James, buried 10 Nov 1916, Edward, buried 1 Feb 1916 They are buried with Sarah S. THOMPSON, b. 13 Aug 1831, Nelson Co.,VA.? d. 16 Dec 1921. She was a THOMPSON, who married a THOMPSON, namely Charles E., in Nelson Co.,VA. on 14 Oct 1846. I know they had a daughter, born in Fluvanna Co.,VA., Mahala, b. 1849, and a son, Silas, b. ca 1855, d. 5 Aug 1923. Any help, or information would be greatly appreciated! Brenda

Hi, everyone! Just received an obit yesterday on my GGF from the Baltimore Sun...seems he was born in Moorefield, W VA...is that in Hardy Co? He lived there (in Moorefield, W. Va) for six years before moving to the capital (Washington DC). Would anyone have any information on a Thomas J.

A small world it is. I am from Logan County and my grandparents actually met and knew Devil Anse. They told me numerous stories about both Hatfields and McCoys. When I was a young child (I'm not 66 years old), I use to play in the areas where the feud took place.

Hello Ron: I too am interested in Hatfield line. I have relatives in that line and know a couple of your living relatives namely two brothers Harold Hatfield and Mack Robinson. I'll try and see if I have any information this week and get back to you. I am also interested in Damron, Queen, Webb & Browning. Best wishes.

I too am interested in the Lambert line. I have some information and will dig it out this evening. It is now Sunday 8/15 at 12:00 noon MST. I will be in touch this evening. Perhaps I can help you. I am also doing research on Webb, Browning, Queen and Damron. Let's stay in touch.

Thanks for your notice about research in W.Va. I too am going there within the near future. What lines were you researching? I am mainly interested in Webb, Damron, Queen, & Browning.

There are Gartons in Lewis Co.
