I have an Aleena FARLEY who was born in the 1870's in Monroe County, Ohio, and married Osborne GORBY in Tyler county, WV. My question has to do with her father.. Robert S. FARLEY. Does anyone know who he married? I know that the FARLEY's, GORBY's and RICHMOND's have a tendency to marry in together a few times, is this one of those lines? Dawn.

Dawn, Have you or anyone else been able to place ARTA GORBY ? Born Dec. 1863 in WVA. Married in 1855 to John Brison QUIGLEY b. Mar 1858 PA. Just thought I'd try again to see if she turned up anywhere.......... Thanks, Sandy

Does anyone know the name of the man that Ellen GORBY married? Ellen (possibly Eleanore) was born between 1846-1850 in Marshall County (West) Virgina. Their children were Frank and Walter CAMPBELL. There may be more children that I don't know about. I have no idea when they were married, or when Frank and Walter were born. Dawn.

Jasper was born about 1844, and is nice enough to show up in the 1850 and 1860 census. He even put in an appearance in the Civil War, being with the 6th West Virginia Calvalry. However, I can't find him after that. I show that he had two children: Irving and Jesse. I however, don't have a spouce for him. Does anyone know who Jasper married? Does anyone know if he stayed in West Virginia or moved to Ohio? Any help appreciated. Dawn.

Looking for any information on the David T. Burton who lived in the Marshall County around the Proctor area and around some of the ridges. This is my wife's side of the family. David T. Burton is her 7th generation grandfather and is wanting to get some of her family located. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated and Thanks in advance.

In case someone is confused by all this sudden activity, yes, I am trying to clean up a bunch of loose ends in my database. I have a William GORBY who was born about 1874 in Marshall County to VP and Sarah GORBY. William married twice (as far as I know) once in about 1906 or and the other time, some time before that, as he had a child from the first marriage. He died in Brooke County, at some unspecified date. I know this isn't much help, but can someone please let me know who he married? Dawn.

I am showing Hannah (GORBY) ANGUISH in the 1850 census living with her husband David, and being all of 42 years old. Also in this household is her sister, Rebecca GORBY, also showing as being 42 years old. Are they twins???? Since they are in the same household, with the same age, I am inclined to think that. Also, my records show that these two are buried in Bowman Ridge, but I can't find them on a list. Do they really have tombstones? or are they in unmarked graves? I also show (Barbara) Jane (GORBY) CLARK and Anne (GORBY) SAMPSON as age 31 in 1850 and 40 in 1860. Are they twins? Again I have no idea where they were are buried. Please help!!! Dawn.

I am looking for information on my family. Believed to have originally been Hind. Variations of the name include HINDS [My current} HIND / HINES / HYNES / HYND, etc. My direct ancestory was in Beaver County, PA after the Revolution, but may have been descendent from Chester, PA, -- Albemarle, Augusta Counties in VA. Family members migrated through VA, PA, KY, TN, AL, AR, IN. Early names were James, William, Thomas, John, Samuel. At Beaver County, PA (Sewickley and N. Sewickley) John Hind - Revolutionary War [fifer] John, jr., George, Peter, and Jacob. Also Sampson and others. Related families included PIERSOL and OLDHAM. Descendents were known to have moved to Jennings (and surrounding) Counties, IN in the 1830/40 time frame. Included John, jr., Sampson (at least one with that name.), My great great grandfather Jason (also a John) who moved with his family into North Western Indiana. His wife Catherine (Oldham) and some Children are burried in Hemphill Cemetery. Jason died in Remington, IN. My great grandfather and some of his brothers (Includes Roark and George) served in the Civil war from that area. Reply to Clif Hinds at: [email protected]

Thank you, thank you, thank you Elizabeth Swiger and Linda!! I have had a black hole in my Sampson research for months now. The 1900 Sand Hill Census helped fix it!!!!! Christina

My daughter knows a Criswell. I have given her the letters that have been written so far in hopes that she may shed some light. If the friend can help I will post all her replies here.

Hi Again Terry, Sorry, I'm a couple of days behind in reading my mail lists due to a computer club meeting yesterday. I didn't realize that you were so lacking in information about your father's family or the reasons why. I think this conversation should be kept on line to everyone, then people like Gail Meeks can offer the military information she knows and everyone else with knowledge can add to this conversation. In my last email I stated that I've not been able to tie John Ross into any of the other Criswell families. I assume since John Ross started a family in 1919, he was probably born in the 1890s, so I check the birth records, I submitted, which are listed in the Marshall Co GenWeb archives. A John D. b 1895 was a possiblilty, but I checked in other records and the D wasn't a R mistakenly read. Also he marrieds Irene Hall and had 3 children, but not the 3 you're interested in. The other possibility is a male born 1898 to James Alex Criswell & Nancy J. Syhock, But I have no other information on this family. And then of course there is a 3rd possibilty that John Ross's birth wasn't registered. Does anyone out there have any information on the family of James Alex Criswell & Nancy J. Syhock? Sylvia

Hi Terry, I think your John Criswell is the Arthur J. I sent you who was born in 1919 and had a brother Forrest.The birth record info had his parents names, and I also gave you the sister's name. Have you contacted the county for a death record. More information would be on the death record. I have many Criswell families, but have been unable to connect the father of the 3 children Terry is lookling for to any of my Criswell families. Father is John Ross Criswell. Does anyone know who his paremnts were? Sylvia

George Washington EVANS and Eleanore GORBY we married in 1841 in Marshall County, Virginia (West). Eleanore proceeded to die in 1845. Does anyone know if they had children? My records show that he died in 1891, so I am sure that he remarried. Any help appreciated. Dawn.

Hi SYLIA, Thanks for taking the time to e-mail me .I only have a little info too go on . John Criswell (my father) was born 1919 died 1988 .He listed Sgt. U.S. Army as occupation ,his social security no. 235-14-5188 . Brother Forrest is the only name I have & I'm not to sure about that. My mother mentioned a brother Forrest to me about 25 years ago Sylvia I never saw or talked t o my dad ,nor do I know any living relatives on my dads side.They split up about the time I was born.Mom never let me know about my dad,I always thought he died when I was pre-schooler.As a teen ,mom told me the marriage just did not work out. She did not know what happen to my dad.So my approach to was ;if he did not want to know me then I did not want to know him,never even tried.May be I was afraid too find out anything. But I'm 51 now,and all those questions are knocking around in my head.It seems strange too me that all these years i tried to forget what little i did know and now i just can not wait for the next door to open. thanks terry lee criswell P.S. Janice (Criswell) Griffin e-mailed me & told me how nice you are ...... thanks again tlc
