Judi, About the only politician that was in my line was Grandpa Aubrey McClung. He was a member of UMWA and a delegate to the 1946 District 17 convention in Atlantic City, NJ. He also ran for magistrate of either Logan or Mingo County sometime in the 50's. I have a picture of Grandpa dressed in his "Sunday best" standing handsomely behind John Lewis at the convention. I was one of the ten persons who brought UMWA to my work place and in 1999, I became a proud member of District 17. I was also elected to an office -- Grievance Chairperson (go figure? :-). In 2000, I was involved in the "March on Washington to help save the Coal Act". That is one experience I will never forget. I felt like what I was saying really matter to people and their lives. I was a part of the crew that stopped the Fayette County high schools from being consolidated and I was there the day that the superintendent was asked to leave and I was in court when we were asking to have two illegal board members removed. And then campaigned to put board members in that really care about the children and their futures. I have no plans for a future in politics. For now, I plan to stick with my job as a mother and in the little political arena known in these parts as the FHS Football Boosters. Sometimes I think that it is more political than anything that happens in Washington! Anita

Anita, Girl, it sounds like it is in your blood! You have been busy. It all sounds exciting.

Hello everyone, I would be interested in hearing any history you might have concerning persons in your line who were or became politicians or people of importance(although all are important to us). In making notations about our W.V folks, and particularly Mingo county. I am pretty much in the dark, and since so many of our lines intertwine, would enjoy knowing. Anxious to hear. Judi

Are there any relatives out there to John H. Bias that married Lucinda Baisden d/o Sarah Ann "Tena" Dempsey (married John Baisden) she is my great-great-grandmother. I still haven't found out when Tena died. In the 1910 Boone County, WV Census Tena is 87 living with son-in-law John H. Bias & daughter Lucinda Baisden Bias. Thanks, Johnny

That's okay Judi not to many Dreama's out there in the world. LOL...

Sorry i have been so slow getting these out for you. I guess its just old age. and then we had another death in the family my frist cousin's wife mother passed away at about 3:00 this morning in Dayton, Ohio. Francis Johnson she was the wife of the late Rev Henry Johnson of Huber Hights, Ohio. Henry also married my two sisters in a double wedding in 1966. Donald Givens. TED DAMRON It is with a sad and lonely heart that I attempt to write a few words in memory of my beloved husband, Ted Damron, who has gone to rest with God. With all the grief we felt in his passing we are thankful that all of his children were able to be with him during his final days of affictionand they could be present to hear him ask for membership in the Old Regular Baptist Church at Caney Creek, Kentucky, on March 9, 1968, at Jenkins Clinic Hospital, thereby.... assuring us completely that we could let him go knowing he was going to a better place. He was born the son of Auxier and Jane Moore Damron on October 28, 1895 in Mingo county, West Virginia and departed this life on April 3, 1968. He was first married to Hannah Roberts in 1918 who preceded him in death. Unto this union was born four sons, ..... Troy Damron Jenkins, Ky,'; Roy Damron Columbiana, Ala,; Edward Damron Alexandria, Va; and Fred Damron Jenkins, Ky. Also one daughter Mrs. Mildred Marples, Louisville, Ky., who preceded him in death on August 28, 1953. He was married to Eula Short in 1932. Unto this union was born three sons, Kermit Damron, Jenkins, Ky, Glenn Damron, Berea Ohio and Mark Damron Berea. Ohio. Also two daughters Mrs. Patty Darmon, Rittman, Ohio and Mrs. Madolyn Sampson, Alexandria, Va. He leaves 26 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren. Also one brot- her Buck Damron, Pikeville, Ky and four sisters Maude Blackburn... Jenkins, Ky, Mrs. Minnie Robinson, Jenkins, Ky, Mrs. Edna Puckett, Detroit, Michigan, and Mrs. Ethel Payett, San Diego, California. Even though we mourn his leaving us and we will never forget him or the vacancy he has left in our family circle can once again br unbroken in Heaven through the Hope God has given us if we believe upon the name of his Son and Our Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ. Al- so we know that if our beloved one could speak to us again he would tell us to continue to strive for the Lord in this life, that we might once again join him in a better and sweeter life than we had before. Th family would also like to take this opportunity to thank the many friends who showed such kindness and love during our time of bereavement. Written by his wife: Eula Damron and daughter-in-law Barbara Damron ============================================================= HENRY AND NANCY HICKS OUSLEY It is with a sad and broken heart that try to write an obituary of my dear father and mother, Henry and Nancy Hicks Ousley. Father was born February 22,1887 and deceased July 27, 1967, and mother... was born in 1887 and deceased April 7, 1968. They were married in 1905 and they had seven children: Darsie Ousley, McArthur, Ohio; ... Bertha Bradley, Risner, Ky; Lula Prater, Sidney, Ind; Edna Brodley,... Claypoole, Ind; Oliver and Willie Ousley both of Risner, Ky, Dewey Ousley deceased. Father was the son of Ned Ousley and Lisha Coffey Ousley. He has seven living brothers and sisters and thirteen deceased Bro- thers and sisters.

Mother was the daughter of Emory Hicks and Jemima Sammons Hicks. Brothers and sisters: Doug, Dan Hicks, Emaline Moore, Rebecca Shepherd of David, Ky and several others we cannot remember. Mom and Dad belonged to the Regular Baptist Church for 45 years. Dad was sick for several years before he died and mama was sick two weeks before she passed away, about nine months after he passed away. They went to church as long as they were able to go. They lived a happy life together for sixty some years. All the children and neighbors and the Cold Spring Church will miss them. We believe without a doubt that they are sleeping under the altar of God and will have a Heavenly home some day where there will be no sickness nor sorrow. I want to say to all the children to not forget mama and papa and try to follow their advice and counsel. Written by their oldest daughter Darsie Ousley. ============================================================= POLKIE PRATER Polkie Prater was born November17, 1886 the youngest daughter of the late Elias and Sally Crisp Bradley.

Glenna, Working on those McClungs, again. I took the list of my great grandpa's brothers and sisters and have been searching census records for each family. Believe it or not, there are only two that I cannot find some information on. One daughter, we only have a date of birth, but know that she never married, I cannot find after her father died. I am thinking that perhaps she preceeded him in death. And another daughter I cannot find in the 1920 census. Even though the 1920 census is indexed, they may have mispelled the surname (Burr) or her husband would not have been listed as "head of household" if they were living with someone else. From 1880-1910, they were in Nicholas County. However, in 1930, they were in Summers County. So, who knows where they were in 1920. Go figure. Anita

Anita: Thanks, What are you working on? Glenna

Glenna, I got you here. Just doesn't seem to be anyone posting right now. As for me, I am working on another line of family. Bet everyone has wondered where my big mouth (or in this case, big fingers) have been! Have a wonderful day. Anita
