Don't know if you ever found this but i think i've found where Columbus' dad and several brothers and sisters are buried. i believe its the Lewis -Sehon cemetery in mason co. it appears that mason co. also has a Union district as does jackson co. It looks like Columbus' grandpa was Col. Andrew Lewis , hero and commander at the battle of Point Pleasant. Is this correct? Please check out site on yahoo...http:/ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/wv/mason/cemetery/cem0001.txt Various Lewis info is scattered throughout this whole page. If this turns out to be info you already had , let me know and i'll keep on looking. Wishing you luck, Jim Fletcher

Charles was my great great grandmother's nephew. She was Sarah Angelina Skidmore Reynolds. You can find them at www.wvpioneers.com I'd appreciate any more info on them that you want to share.

Emily was my grandmother. Unfortunately, she died when my father was 14 so I never knew her and I have no connections to her family. I can tell you she was born Emily Madaline Skidmore on Dec 6, 1906. Her parents were Charles Lushion Skidmore and Dora Staats. She died Feb 10th, 1940 and is buried in Fairplain Cemetery. As you mentioned she married Gerald Oris Bibbee who was my grandfather. They later divorced. I think the last sibling of Emily's, a sister, died about 10 or 12 years ago. She lived in a red brick home on a corner of the Fairplain exit of I-77. I can't remember her name now. I hope this helps. If you have more information on the Skidmore family tree, let me know. Keith

Hi Dan, Do you have a James David Hughes b 1871/2 in Ravenswood W.Va. He married a Rowena Bosworth.I need Parents names date of marrage and death. They are my g.grandparents. This my brick wall. Any help would be great. Thank You Ruth

I didn't catch the first email asking about this Hughes, but I have one William Hughs born in 1858 who had a twin named Aceneth S. C. Hughes and so maybe her brother William also had the two middle names too. Their parents were John Hughes b. 1835 and Martha Hamrick born 1835 married in 1850. But that's all I have other than more children for this couple. If this sounds like what you are looking for and you want the other children, let me know I will gladly send them to you. Janet in WV
