    3. Jim, That looks accurate, according to the Boone County censuses. There was a big difference in their ages, wasn't there? In the 1870 Boone County WV census, Calvary Bias age 41 was married to Julia Ann age 39. I see Calvary's first marriage record in the early Logan County marriages file. He married Julia Ann Perry on August 2, 1855, daughter of Henry Perry. Calvary Bias was son of Obediah and Rachel. By 1900, Calvary was widowed. He was listed as age 67, born in May 1833. In 1910, he was listed as Calvin Bias, age 76, married twice, this time for 5 years. His wife Rosella was 28, married once, two children, one of them living. Their son was listed as Frank D., age 4. In 1920, he was again listed as Calvin Bias, and he was age 86. His wife Rosella was 39, and their son was listed as Dennis age 13. The marriage record of Calvary and Rosella on Sept. 8, 1904 said that Calvary was age 70 and widowed, born in and a resident of Boone County, WV, and Rosella Nichols was age 23 and single, born in and a resident of Logan County, WV. Rosella's parents were listed as "Emphrym" Nichols and Nervy Blankenship. 1900 Boone Co, WV, Washington Dist, p. 215B. 1910 Boone Co, WV, Washington Dist, p. 241B. 1920 Boone Co, WV, Washington Dist, p. 139B.

Record shows that they were married 8 Sep 1904 in Logan County, West Virginia. Then they had a son Dennis Franklin Bias born 6 Feb 1906 Is this possible. Jim Burgess ==============================
