Hi again everyone, Seems that the other children have been researched. Except for Margaret and Melvin B. So I did what I love to do, research. I have seen Melvin's middle name as Blackburn. I have no proof of that but it could well be. Also have seen his wife as Nancy Jane Farley. Can someone confirm all this. This is what I found for Melvin and his family. Hope I got it right. Oh, carp means carpenter. Gotta love my shorthand typing. Slsmn gen str means Salesman in General Store. hse=house. Anyone have any idea about that General Store in Logan, Logan Co.????? Gracie Who can't get past 1848 for Sellers grandfather and 1857 for (Golliher/Gallagher,etc) Sellers grandmother. He was born in Wv area. She was born in Missouri And yes those dates are right for my grandparents, as I had a dinosaur for a pet as a child. ========================================= Name: Melvin B Mullins Age: 60 Estimated birth year: abt 1870 Birthplace: West Virginia Relation to head-of-house: Head Spouse's Name: Nancy J Mullins Race: White Home in 1930: Logan, Logan, West Virginia ------------------------------------------ Image source: Year: 1930; Census Place: Logan, Logan, West Virginia; Roll: 2540; Page: 6B; Enumeration District: 27; Image: 1087.0. -------------------------------------------------------------- Mullins, Melvin B O $5000 m w 60 M 26 Wv/Wv/Wv none wife: Nancy J. f w 48 M 15 Wv/Wv/Wv none son: Frank m w 18 S Wv/Wv/Wv slsmn gen str daug: Kathrine f w 13 S Wv/Wv/Wv none ============================================= Name: M B Mullins Age: 50 years Estimated birth year: abt 1870 Birthplace: West Virginia Race: White Home in 1920: Logan, Logan, West Virginia Home owned: Own Sex: Male Marital status: Married Relation to Head of House: Head Able to read: Yes Able to Write: Yes Mother's Birth Place: West Virginia Father's Birth Place: West Virginia Image: 269 ------------------------------------------------- Image Source: Year: 1920; Census Place: Logan, Logan, West Virginia; Roll: T625_1955; Page: 2B; Enumeration District: 25; Image: 269. ------------------------------------------------- Mullins, M.
