While researching my family roots in Jackson County, WV, I noticed many familiar surnames. Apparently, other families moved from Jackson County, WV to the Akron, OH area as my family did years ago. With the hope of helping somebody find family that moved to the Akron, OH area, I am listing below the names from Death Notices in the Akron Beacon Journal that have surnames that I recognize as being in Jackson County or that state that the person was from WV. These obits will eventually appear online. You can search for them at the following site. <A HREF="http://www.ohio.com/bj/news/obits.html#search">http://www.ohio.com/bj/news/obits.html#search</A> If you would like additional information from the obit before it is available online, let me know.
