I've seen CH used as a common appreviation for Court House. I'm no expert on District #29 or Washington District, but I've seen CH used for court house about a million times. -- Cara Showers Anchorage, Alaska [email protected] From: [email protected] Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 17:02:27 EDT To: [email protected] Subject: [WVKANAWH] Question Resent-From: [email protected] Resent-Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 14:02:37 -0700 Hello All, On the 1860 Kanawha County Census, it has Post Office: Kanawha C H. (at least it looks like CH). It seems be in the same area that was later referred to as District #29, Washington District. Could someone tell me what CH stood for?
