Posted on: Jackson County, WV Bios Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/WV/JacksonBios/171 Surname: MITCHELL, HOFFMAN, LUDWICK ------------------------- This sketch taken from "Pioneers of Jackson County", by John House, it appears in the section "Upper Mill Creek". Marshall Mitchell had come from Barbour County, to Jackson County, sometime before the war. William Hoffman, who had married Mitchell's sister, came in 1866. Bet, a daughter of Henry Ludwick, was to marry a Hoffman, a cousin of Daniel and William Hoffman. The old folks approved of the marriage, but she fell out with Hoffman, and "ran off" with "Jake" Mitchell, got married and came to Jackson County. It was while on a visit to her that Henry Ludwick became so pleased with the country that he sold his farm in Barbour County, and came to the waters of Little Creek, of Mill Creek.
