Seeking to make contact with Hardy researchers for EVANS surname. A 20 year futile search...Thanks...Mike Foreman...Winchester, VA

Try Forzetting over in Clarksburg, WV or the surrounding area. There is a large Italian community in the Clarksburg/Bridgeport area. That is not a name from around here (Potomac Highlands region). Nazelrod is a name from around here, though mostly in Hampshire County. Terry Gruber [email protected] wrote: > Hi, I am searching the surnames for FORZETTING and NAZELROD.

Happy New Year to all the wonderful folks on this Hardy Co WVA list! You all have been most helpful to me in my research and I wish to thank everyone and wish their families a most healthy and prosperous New Years! I have noted on the 1820 Hardy Co Census a Joseph Walker (8)..perhaps 8 people in the household...would anyone have any information on this Joseph Walker and his family (there is a Jane Walker (63) who married a Thomas Mattingly (76) both born in VA who are listed in the 1850 DC Census)? Still trying to find a connection to my Thomas J. (Joseph) Mattingly and Moorefield, WVA where he was born. It is a long shot, but in 2000, I'm ready to try anything !!! Best to all, Elizabeth

Hi everyone - I hope this isn't too hard to follow............ The Beans I am researching come from the early Beans of St.Marys Co, MD. My earliest is JOHN BEAN( wife Mary), born before 1700, and died 1745 in St,Marys Co ( will on file there). His son ROBERT BEAN (wife Margaret) was born 1720 in St.Marys Co, and moved to Hagerstown,MD in the mid to late 1700s. His son, BENNETT BEAN ( wife Ruth Tucker)was born in 1771 in MD, and sometime after 1790 he moved to Hardy Co, WV, along with his father Robert and most of his siblings. They settled in an area near Inkerman, called the "BEAN SETTLEMENT". Next in line is JOSEPH BEAN ( wife Chloe Ann Masters), born 1790 in MD. His son, ERASMUS BEAN (wife Emily Evans), was born in 1822 and died in 1896, buried in the Bean Settlement. Their daughter, FRANCELIA BEAN, born 1853, was my gr gr grandmother . Many of the Hardy Co Beans moved on to Athens, Ohio in the early/mid 1800s. I do have additional information on my Bean line that I'd be happy to share. What I'd really love to find is the missing generation between my JOHN BEAN, who was born before 1700, and the first Bean settlers in St.Marys Co, WALTER and RALPH BEAN. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. Laura

Shenandoah (originally Dunmore County) was never a part of Hampshire or Hardy County---so no Mathias or Lost City people are going to show up in Shenandoah County. In 1805, Shenandoah County was already formed, so any records you need to look at would be there. Shenandoah County was originally Dunmore County and was formed around 1770 (changed from Dunmore to Shenandoah because of Lord Dunmore's actions at the beginnings of the Am. Revolution[he was governor at the time]) from Augusta County.

So if you were listed as being married in 1805 in Shenandoah Co. it could mean that you were living in Mathias or Lost City or Moorefield WV as we know them today, but it was recorded as Shenandoah Co.VA back then??? before Shenandoah Co. was known as it is today, before WV became a state? So Shenandoah Co. Court House is the place to look? Thanks for any help. Lela Hite Newell -- MZ

In 1827, he was born in Moorefield, VA not WV. If you are looking for him as a youth in WV, you will never find him. Try Virginia records. Have you looked in land or tax records?
