Hi Carol Rose et al. .... Thank you for your follow-up message to my query regarding the location of Industrial Street, Dunbar. I am especially happy to receive the updated list of renamed streets. I had a number of family connections (SAUNDERS) there (Dunbar) many years ago and this listing will help me reorientate myself to the changes in the *lay of the land.* Many thanks for your help with this!

Hi Sherry.... I tried using the "Mapquest" website before I sent my posting to the list. This usually works for me but in this case all I got was the location of Dunbar, Kanawha County... a place that I already know the location of. I thought that the address would still be current since it was referenced in an 1927 obituary. Perhaps Industrial Street has been obliterated in an urban renewal project or something of the like. Any other ideas would be appreciated.

Since so many of us had ancestors in the Civil War, I thought some of you might find an ancestor here. http://genforum.genealogy.com/wv/messages/12444.html ___________________________________________________ IS THIS YOUR CIVIL WAR ANCESTOR'S SIGNATURE? e B a y Item # 2985776065 E b a y Id - scottishpeddler PLEASE DO NOT BID, this information is being provided completely FREE hoping the right persons and families will contact us at the City of Fairfax. - historicfairfax@aol.com BACKGROUND -- You are here because your search included a name, listed below, and it may be your Civil War soldier ancestor. We are the Blenheim Research Group and, as part of an ongoing historical project, we are researching the large number of Civil War soldiers who passed through Fairfax, Virginia. Over 100 of those soldiers signed their names, regimental designations, and much more on the walls of what is now called the Blenheim House in the City of Fairfax. The actual soldier's signatures are still on the walls, and it is considered one of the largest Civil War graffiti collections in the United States. Our historical group works with the City of Fairfax to help preserve Blenheim House, along with the entire collection, and to research their signatures and families. The building itself was used both as a military headquarters and as a hospital during the war, and is now a historical property owned by the City of Fairfax. We are offering the free exchange of historical i! nformation on those soldiers, and asking interested parties to contact us directly. Where possible, we are contacting their descendents to learn more of their stories. If you have any information or questions regarding the below listed soldiers, their families, or their regiments, please contact us through e-bay's "ask a question" above, or at historicfairfax@aol.com. Again, this is a free service, no charges are involved, and we will be happy to share our information. Hopefully, you can find your ancestors name below, and we will be able to add to each other's data. HISTORY OF THE BLENHEIM HOUSE -- Only twenty miles west of the White House, the town of Fairfax Court House, Virginia, changed hands twice during the early part of the Civil War. Centrally located, the town was where both Union and Confederate military leaders planned strategic movements. Close to 100,000 soldiers passed through this major crossroads. Some stayed only overnight; others stayed on for two to three months. By the winter and early spring of 1862, Fairfax was securely in the Union's hands. It was a staging ground for the advance on Manassas, and part of the outer perimeter of the Defenses of Washington. The Wilcoxon family had just finished their sizeable brick farm home by the onset of the Civil War. Due to its size and location, the home was seized and used as a temporary Union headquarters by March of 1862. From September of that year and into 1863, the house served as a Union Hospital. By June of 1863, prior to the advance to Gettysburg, troops again occupied! the house. Approximately 100 individual soldiers' signed names are still visible on the attic walls of what is now called Blenheim House, as well as drawings, prose and other scribbling. More names are still to be uncovered under layers of wallpaper on the other two floors. The result is the largest collection of Civil War graffiti in the United States. The estate is owned by the City of Fairfax, and research has been underway for several years to identify and create a full file on each named soldier. The goal is to learn more about the individual soldiers who left their mark at Blenheim. What was their life like before and, if they survived, after the war? Where did they go, and what did they do for the remainder of their lives. Of all those who signed the walls, 88 soldiers have been positively identified to date. They represent 19 regiments from New York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, and West Virginia; including units of the Baxters Philadelphia Fire Zouaves, 72nd ! Pennsylvania Infantry. Perhaps your ancestor was one of those soldiers, listed below, who signed their name at Blenheim.

Hi, two of us Moran kissin cousins in Florida are trying to find our ancestor James Madison Moran and his place of birth. We have located him with his wife Mary Jane Caldwell Moran (born in North Carolina) in a Charleston Census but can't seem to learn where he came from. They had a rather large family and were affiliated with the now 100 year old Kanawha Manufacturing on Dixie Street in Charleston. Any Moran genealogists out there? Thanks!

I am researching the above surnames connected with my wife who is from Kanawha county, but I am having the most problems with finding information regarding the Couch side. My wife's maternal grandfather was Paul Michael Couch, b. June 18, 1914 in Charleston, WV and d. April 21, 1947 and is buried in the Hanshaw family cemetery, Indian Creek, Kanawha county. Does anyone know where this cemetery is located? His parents were Richard Couch (born Texas) and Ella M. Hanshaw (born Kanawha county). They also had son, Lewis and daughter Ida. Anyone know more about these Couches? Any info will be most appreciated.
