Rootsweb.com Then go to USArchives and Search State by State files if you are searching anyone in 1700's up they have a wealth of information. I use the data base search engine to research a certain area like "Tulpehocken, P" and then go down the list. I found ancestors, dates, names of Churches, tax lists and a lot of history. ----- Original Message ----- From: "A.J.Mom" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, September 21, 2000 11:50 PM Subject: [WVMINERA] Computer carshed > > Hello Everyone, > > Today my computer crashed and I lost everything....My family tree and all. > > All my genealogy sites..I am just sick about all this.

This happened to me last year. You might want to consider sending your hard drive off to a recovery place. It was well worth the couple hundred it cost to recover my years worth of unsaved family info. (long story). As well as all the other stuff on the hard drive. I got it all back!

To add to what Bill wrote, the little road to the cemetery is just to the right of the Springfield Post Office which is on the left from the Romney direction. My paternal g-grandparents are buried there. I discovered them there two years ago after driving past there many times over the years, not even knowing the cemetery was there, let alone my g-grandparents for whom I had searched in Va. many years earlier.

Hey Lonnie, You are the one who started all of this tear jerker stuffy today and got everyone near tears. After I read what others were going through I just had to walk down memory lane with them. I live in Minnesota and our leaves are just about to their peak. It looks like a fairy land around here. But when you are from WVA there is something that really stirs in the heart. Pretty soon it will be 40 below zero. Hope we don't have trouble with trying to have fuel oil this winter.

I should have guessed 101 would be a good place to start. Is this stuff addicting or what? Since I got back from WVA I have been on a roll. It's like finally figuring out who you are.

My moms name was Dolly Kathleen Stonebraker (her parents were George and Elva Stonebraker - I don't know my grandma's maiden name) My father is William Kenneth Kuhn (his parents were Clyde Virgil Kuhn and Gladys Iman) My stepdad was Thomas Richard Warnick.

Me Again (I know Dr Bess, I must have filled your inbox by now hee hee hee) Just a reminder that the Burlington Apple Harvest Festival will be held the week-end of Sept 30 to Oct 1. I'll post the activities when they appear in the paper. :) Patti Maybe some of you could come and see "Lonny's trees" for yourself (PS If you think Lonny's descriptions of the scenery is great, you should read some of her letters to the editor. Wow!)

Mary, The BP Station, is known around these parts as the Van Myra. Steve and Lena own and operate the gas station/store and restaurant. They're "good people" work very hard and long hours. I printed off your letter and took it to Steve today.

What a >sweet lady and we never had a chance to tell her thank you! If any of you >run into Anita please tell her thanks a million for us! > We stopped in Burlington for breakfast the following morning on our way >to Petersburg. Several of our relatives lived in Burlington for years and >wanted to check out a few of the cemeteries there. We stopped for gas at the >B&P Gas Station and Cafe there and ran into some extra special people. In >addition to one of the most helpful waitresses we have ever met, and an >outstanding breakfast of double-yoked eggs, bacon and trimmings fixed to >perfection, we were introduced to a tall elderly gentleman by the name of >Bill Funderberg who not only gave us directions to several cemeteries -- he >knew several of my relatives and knew where many of them were buried. (We >came home with over 25 pictures of gravestones thanks to Bill!) So if you >are searching for information on some of the old-timers of the surrounding >Mineral counties, you can't go wrong stopping in at the B&P. You will get >much more than your monies worth -- a heaping helping of West Virginia >hospitality. Many thanks B&P. We definitely will be stopping by our next >trip through town. > I emailed a copy of some of our ancestors to Patti for the Mineral > County >Page. I sure hope someone can help identify the people in the picture. It >is a great picture sent to me by a cousin who found me on the Mineral Co.
