Hello you know I have no info on the Mayes at all except Elizabeth Jane Mayes who married a Chris Bonecutter from Mason co WV sorry I have been trying to find info on her but no luck yet thanks Shirley

I have a number of Mayes ancestors with variant spellings Mays and Mayse. Can anyone tell me if all these names are connected? My closest connection is Peter S. Mayse, who m. Margaret E. Hughes/Hughs on Sep 12, 1867 in Mason Co., WV. I have no other info on Peter Mayse himself although, as I said, I have other ancestors with the surnames Mays and Mayes. Margaret E. Hughes Mayse is the d/o Christopher Hughes (1809-1891) and his first wife Rebecca Clemons (1813-Bef. 1891). They had 14 children including one child who died either at birth or in infancy in 1856. Margaret was probably their eldest child, born about 1841. I do not have a death date on her or Peter Mayse but I haven't searched that line in a while. They had 2 children that I know of: Joseph Mayse b. abt. 1864 and Ashebelle Mayse (female) born c 1866. Ashebelle may have been named after her older 1st cousin (once removed) Ashbell Hughes (1847-1926) who was the son of Margaret Hughes (1815-1913) and John Bechtle. Margaret Hughes (1815-1913) was a sister to Christopher Hughes. Both were children of John C. Hughes and Elizabeth Ott and their sister, Jemima Hughes (b. bet. 1819-1822 - d. 1890) is my gg-grandmother and m. Thomas Christy (c1830-1893). Ashbell (male) Hughes appears to have been married 3 times: 1) Viola Catherine Grice (1856-1893) -m. June 23, 1870, in Mason Co. 2) Laura F. Pusey m. August 27, 1898 in Mason Co. 3) Fannie Logue (1853-1903) .m. 1903, place unk. I would be grateful if anyone could tell me if Peter Mayse is connected to the Mays or Mayes names. Thank you, Mary Cervantes Searching Christy, Bush, Hughes, Eads, Doss and other names from Mason and Cabell Counties, WV. -----Original Message----- From: wvmason-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:wvmason-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Ernie Wright Sent: Sunday, November 13, 2011 7:49 AM To: wvmason@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [WVMASON] Family surnames Do you have Edison Mayes Sr 1904-1969 ?
