Hi! I have a connection to James Newton Morehead who was a Physician, and a lieutenant in the CSA was killed at the battle of Chancellorsville. I believe it was in 1863 or 64. He was married to my Sarah Mayberry. See 1850 Census, she and two of her siblings were living in the household of her grandparents (Peter & Mary Hass) longtime residents of Hampshire County, Virginia. Do you have any information on what happened to Sarah, did they have any children? What happened to them? I am still looking for information (Dates of Death and where buried) for Catherine Hass Mayberry her mother, and her father was my gggrandfather Israel Mayberry. He was listed on the 1850 Census living in the household of John & Sarah Cooper. I don't know what happened to him. 1850 Census is the last info that I have on any of this family except my ggrandpa Francis aka Frank Mayberry who was Sarah Mayberry Morehouse's brother. He was listed as living in the household of Susan Taylor and eldest son Simon D. Taylor (who was apparently some relation to the Mayberry's or were close friends), my ggrandpa Francis was age 16 on the 1850 Census of Hampshire Co., he shows up later on the 1850 Census of Claiborne Co., Port Gibson, Ms in the household of H. C. Early (initial H stands for Henry) and E. A. Early (Initial stands for Elizabeth + her maiden name was Clark + they were married in Natchez, Adam County, Ms sometime in 1841). Later on the 1870 Census of Grand River Twp., Cass County, Missouri the family appeared on this Census and lo and behold next door was Simon D. Taylor and his family. Apparently they had kept in contact with each other and both moved to Cass County, sometime in 1866 and became next door neighbors. Simon D. Taylor and his family are buried in the Brady Cemetery there in Grand River Twp. Cass Co., Mo I have visited the gravesite. I did not find any marker for my ggrandpa Francis/Frank, so I am still searching for him, I may re-visit that cemetery later. If you make any connection please contact me. I may have contacted you prior to this, I can't remember if I did or not. Thanks, for listening to my story. Bye, Frank Mayberry in Muskogee, Ok Vaughn wrote: > Posted on: Hampshire County, WV Query Forum > Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/WV/Hampshire/1357 > > Surname: Muirhead > ------------------------- > > I'm looking for any info on George Muirhead Liveing Hampshire Co in1782. > He sometimes spelled his name George Morehead He had a land grant at Tear > Coat Creek in 1780 > He may have had a daughter Rebecca who married a Nutter, not sure of this. > Any info on this family would sure be appreciated. thanks Vaughn
