It will probably take a week or so to get here but this is what it has in it. Just let me know and I will put you in the look up file. I know it is for Monongalia Co. but who knows. Look at all the surnames covered. Thank you, Cathy Genealogical and Personal History of the Upper Monongahela Valley, West Virginia Bernard L. Butcher (1912), 1999 Softcover, two volumes, 1999 reprint of this 1912 two volume set, as new, Index, 1,037 total pages. According to the publisher: "These two volumes present in the aggregate the most exhaustive collection of West Virginia genealogies ever assembled. Some 400 families are treated, each family sketch commencing with the known ancestors of the first settler and proceeding in the direct line of descent to representatives of the family in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. >> Thank you so much for offering to do look-ups. I am interested in whatever you have on the COSTELLO and the MASON lines. My g-g-grandfather was William COSTOLO/ COSTELLO-spelled both ways) married to Anna PULLEN. My g-grandfather was their son, William Franklin COSTOLO, who supposedly was killed in the Civil War (I cannot verify this.) Any COSTELLO was probably a relative. Bianna MASON (m. Robert DEVERS 1807) and her father Thomas MASON are also ancestors of mine. I would certainly appreciate any information on any of these names when you have the time to do a look-up. Thanks again.
