Hello fellow researchers! I am hoping to connect with someone that can help me fill in some blanks on the Gandee family I am researching. Starting from William B. Gandee, born Sep 9, 1897 in Roane Co., WV . . . son of Ellis Everett Gandee and Ida Patton . . . William B. was married to a Grace ________ or Annie Branham?? about 1920. I haven't been able to locate a marriage record. Haven't been able to locate his death or his wife's death. Last found them in 1930 in Kanawha Co. Does anyone know where the Keiffer Cemetery is? This could be where father Ellis is buried. Ellis was born Aug 1, 1873 in Roane Co., WV and died July 30, 1957. He's supposed to be buried at Keiffer. His wife was Ida Patton married 3/6/1897. Cora is shown as wife on census record of 1930 and 1920. I haven't found him in 1910 or 1880. I don't know when Ida died or Cora died. Sure would love to hear from someone. I don't know when Karen

Would love to exchange information with anyone who is researching the following names in Kanawha County: Issac Pierce and wife Lottie Russell and second wife Russell May Samuel Russell born 1820 wives were Sirena Turley and Nancy Browden Cobb Lafayette Russell son of Samuel and Sirena and he was married first to Sarah Byard and then to Mary Agnes Midkiff. They adopted a son named Daner. When did Aggy die? Lafe died in 1900 of typhoid fever. Mary Childress/Childers who married Samuel Russell in 1844 James Tucker who was married to Emily Moles Joseph Arthur and his wife Maria Sandridge John Beverly Montague and his wife Luellen Cobb Thomas Roswell Cobb Russell Pierce (born about 1907) Dima Pierce believe she married Elmer Graham Lola Pierce Maggie Russell married James W Conner (he died in Kanawha in 1931) Olga Johnson believe she was second wife of James W Conner. Hezekiah Mills he drowned at the locks in Montgomery I believe about 1890. He is a son of Jesse Mills. I am also looking for three girls who were step children of Issac Pierce. Georgia CECIL, Mary CECIL and Hesper CECIL. I believe they all were married in Kanawha County. The girls were all born between 1907 and 1911. Thanks hope someone will have some information about some of these people. Pat

I am looking for information on the marriage and divorce of Helen Virginia PETERS and Fred Staunton GREYBILL Jr. They were married 26 Oct 1940 in Russell, KY. They were both residents of Charleston, WV. I have a copy of the marriage announcement from the Charleston Daily Mail (3 Nov 1940) but know nothing else of this marriage. I know they divorced before 2 Jul 1949 when Fred married Nellie Foster in Nevada. Fred and Nellie are my grandparents, but I am very curious about my grandfather's first marriage, especially whether or not there were any children born. I also wonder why they went to Kentucky to get married. And why the marriage was not announced until after the fact. Also, none of the bride's or my grandfather's family appear to have attended the wedding, as they are not listed among the guests. In a town where the birthday parties and engagement parties thrown for my grandfather and his siblings are listed, why would this one be left until after the fact. It just seems odd to me. Any help would be great.

Thank you to everyone that wrote with directions and information about where to find Kanawha County Court House. What a great group of people you are. Sincerely, Beth Lewis Searching For My Lost Family: BOWMAN, BROOKS, HAYDEN, HOSKINS, JOHNSON, LEWIS, MCCARTY, RUPE, STOTTS, or STURTZ

I am planning a trip to Kanawha County and wondered if anyone on the list had an address for the Court House. I am assuming Land Deeds, and Death records are kept there, also, where might I find Cemetery Books, to see where my family may have been buried? Thanks Beth Searching For My Lost Family: BOWMAN, BROOKS, HAYDEN, HOSKINS, JOHNSON, LEWIS, MCCARTY, RUPE, STOTTS, or STURTZ

Want to thank all who answered my query. Some thought the cemetery in Beckley. But the one I was looking for is in Dunbar. I did find someone on this list who is helping me that lives nearby the cemetery. This is a wonderful list!

I am looking for the burial place for: Samuel S Smith and his wife Osha Smith. I believe his son, Samuel, jr may be buried there also. I am told Osha is in Sunset Memorial Park, I feel Samuel should be there too, but I cannot find this cemetery on the internet. Thanks for your help.
