    1. RE: New
    2. Coffield, Robert
    3. I just joined the Marshall Co. listserv and want to introduce myself. I am Bob Coffield, originally from New Martinsville WV and now living in Charleston WV. I have been involved in genealogy for a number of years - mainly working on the Coffield and Yoho lines in Wetzel and Marshall Co.. I also serve as the Editor of the Yoho Newsletter and involved with the Yoho Reunion annual planning (it is set for June 19, 1999 this year at Bruce Park in New Martinsville WV). I was intrigued by the post listed below because I have been looking for a similar occurrence with the McCreary cemetery in Marshall Co. Many of my early Coffield relatives were likely buried in the cemetery and was interested in finding whether someone had written down the markers in McCreary prior to Ms. Briggs' work. I have been in contact with the McCreary Association and they are not aware of any previous surveys of the markers. Any assistance would be welcomed. I am sure that the McCreary Association would like to have a more complete list and I would be very interested.

Our previous list was from Mrs. Briggs' more recent readings.... All of the differences, of which there are many, are indicated on the page by a *. Apparently this is a very old cemetery and stones were/are difficult to read. Does anyone know if people are still being buried in the First Street Cemetery? Karen also sent additional information about Brice and Leah Mace Eniex/Enochs..It has been added to her file in the Virtual Society. Just uploaded is a genealogy file from Frank B. Manning..... Descendants of John Manning (Grandfather of Benjamin of Marshall County). And, in case I didn't mention it earlier, Joel Robinson visited the Mt. Joy Cemetery last week and has provided additional information.... The new data is clearly indicated on the page. Thanks to all contributors. Linda
