Elizabeth, Does this mean they are connected? I don't know.....but if Edward(brother of your John) is connected to the McCullough's of WV...then perhaps a look into it is in order. I would try to get to Romney, WV and Moorefield, WV and do some local searching in the Libraries in that area. If you do find more info on the McCullough's, please let me know.......I saw this previously....look at the VA land grants for McCollough/McCullock: http://eagle.vsla.edu/lonn/ Thanks for this link Lori!!!!
