From late June to July 1, I posted messages on this list and about 20 others. I want to thank all those who gave and offered help. Bottom line though, I’m still in search for a clue to Silas Fannin’s last days, with place and date of death. Several who replied had found the information posted by Deborah Maynard Chatley saying Silas and Polly died in Wyoming county, WV. I’ve checked those statements in every way I know and found no verification. I suspect they are not true. Replies to my message have dwindled away, so I will be unsubscribing soon. I’m getting too much mail not applicable to my situation. If anyone should find any record pertaining to Silas Fannin after 1887 somewhere, please email me at [email protected] I need to point out again that Silas had a grandson named Silas Fannin who settled in Lincoln county, WV about 1900. I’m interested in finding information about the older Silas Fannin, b. about 1822 in KY. Thank you. Ralph H. Sayre [email protected]
