Myrna SG-I have answered this question before, my great uncle has done a lot of research on them, this info is from him, Marshall Co. was formed from Ohio in 1835, but in 1805 it was part of Ohio Co.; do you have a birth cert for her? I may just delete the Moundsville part, but keep the Ohio Co part, what does everyone else have? Sandy in Florida [Sandra Sommerville Wells Griffith]

I have been searching for my great-great grandfather George Robinson. They were from Wheeling area. George is thought to have been married to a Sarah Clifton or Clifford. Grandma was not quite sure. If anyone could look up the 1860 and 1870 census for me I would greatly appreciate it. My great grandfather was Leroy Curtis Robinson b. 2-2-1865. But I have not been able to find this name any place. He married Hannah Gates. Leroy had a sister that they called Emma that supposedly married and went west. Grandma said they came to visit in early 1930's and that they never mentioned having any children. George Robinson remarried again after Sarah died of the black fever. Her sister Mary lived with them and she died also. I am looking for any death records on George Robinson who had moved to Wood County. I found an Emma Robinson who married a William Riley Heldreth November 22, 1897 Marion, WV. Is Marion WV near Wheeling, WV or Ohio County? Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
