Hi, I am looking for the decendants or information about Horace and James D. Arnott. They are both children of Jesse R. Arnott and Caroline Baker Arnott. Horace and James lived in the Springfield Dist. at the time Jesse died in 1902. I was wondering if anyone has the census that is indexed of 1900, 1910 or 1920 that they might locate both of them. I have had a difficult time. Adeath record might also help me. Thanks so much. Jason Arnott

Looking for information on John Humphreys son of William Anderson Humphreys and Hannah E. Dolan. John was born 1811 or 1814 in Monroe Co. Va. grew up there and married Lucy C. Tomlinson born 1817, daughter of David Tomlinson, and Sarah Dodd. Children Samuel D. Humphreys born 1838 Sarah C. Humphreys born 1840 Maybe more children. - -------------------------- Some say he was married to Rachel Parker Children : Lavinia A. Humphreys Charles or Add or Addison Humphreys John Manilius (Neel) If anyone has this family I can use some ideas. I know William Andrew and Hannah had a son named John, the wife's and children is what I need help getting better ideas. Sandy in Ohio

Mine is from a Samuel Lewis b. abt. 1740 d. 8/16/1811 Monroe County, WV that had at least the following brothers... Wilson Abner my Samuel of Augusta/Greenbrier/Monroe had at least the following children: John Zebulon Joshua Anna Mary Samuel Abner I have found two distinct Samuel Lewis's in Augusta/Greenbrier County prior to 1800; mine and Colonel Samuel Lewis; son of General Andrew Lewis; early Greenbrier tax lists identify them as two separate individuals and the census has two Samuel Lewis living in Greenbrier County in the 1790 Census... I have been unable to determine who the parents of my Samuel Lewis were or where he was born... he had land patents next to General Andrew & Colonel Samuel Lewis; maybe a coincidence? I would love to see what any one may have on the Augusta/Greenbrier/Monroe County Lewis's... I have all the descendants of my Samuel Lewis's info if interested... Best Regards, Patrick

Hello Gang, I am searching for a Charles Rose who married a Harless woman in Monroe Co. 1900-?. Looking for siblings for Charles,or any information on these 2. That's all the information I have to go on for now. Thanks Jerry Rose

Would your Charles have any relation to the Charles Allen Rose born 1846 in Monroe, who married Maryetta Calhoun? Louise

Try writing Ssechols@aol.com on the Rose family. She doesn't have a lot of time but has been working on the Rose family from that area for a long time. Louise

Melinda and other Humphries researchers, Sorry, I goofed. The birth date of Mary Etta Humphries should have been 26 Jan 1868. ...jane

Jane- Thank you for info on Mary Etta Humphreys-appreciate your time! Sandy- I have been told her parents were John M. Humphreys and Sarah E. Dunsmore. If anyone is interested info on Charles B. Beckner is: Born to Amanuel and Rebecca (Smith) Beckner Nov. 23, 1863 in Monroe Co. and died in Greenbrier Co. on June 12, 1946. Thanks again all!

[I hope I'm not breaking any rules by cross-posting this to three lists, but it may reach a larger audience and save some time. (I'll take flames off-line) :-)] I am researching descendants of James Jones/Mary (Molly) Leach, of Monroe Co., VA (now-WV). James (1760-3/16/1849) and Molly (abt. 1761-12/21/1852) had 12 children that I can account for. I have recently received and transcribed copies of both of their wills and will make them available upon request. Their children were: 1. William Jones (1782-1855) died in Shelby Co, IN; m. Martha Hawkins 1804 (3 children: Matthew, Mary and Jane); m. Susannah Barger abt. 1816 (3 children Samuel, Rebecca and James) 2. Eli Jones (1783-1850) d. in Shelby Co., IN; m. Joanna Fife 1809 (9 children: Oscar, Amanda, America, Rachel, James, Mary, Parthena, Catherine and Virginia) most all of whom settled in Indiana (some in Shelby, some in Decatur) 3. Samuel Evans Jones (1784-1843) d. in Shelby Co., IN, buried Row 7, Jones Cemetery, Noble Township; m. Rebecca Fife 1805 (10 children: Matilda, Alfred, James, Catherine, Mary, Rebecca, Samuel Francis, Charles Arbuckle, Rachel, Frances Ann Arbuckle) 4 John M. Jones (1786-1848) d. unknown; m. Elizabeth Lake 1804 (6 children: Mary, Edward, Elizabeth, Jane, Polly, Valentine); m. Jane Parker 1822 no children 5. Levina Jones (abt 1788-d. unk) m. Thomas Boggess 1812 in Monroe Co., VA 6. Uriah Jones (1790-1843) d. Shelby Co., IN buried Row 4 Jones Cemetery, Noble Township; m. Jane Fife 1815 in Monroe Co., VA (10 children: Thomas Jackson, Susanna, Morton, Adaline, Lutitia Ann, Mary Jane, Francis Wesley, Sarah Elizabeth, Rebecca and Valariah) [I am descended through Uriah/Jane's son Morton==>William Marshall==>Harry Edward==>Hiram Robert==>Glenn Charles] 7. Mary Jones (1792-?); m. Edward Fife 1815 (2 children: Andrew Fife, Kiles B. Fife) 8. Elizabeth Jones (1795-1843); no marriage information, apparently lived/died in Monroe Co. 9. Susanna Jones (1797-aft 1852); m. Archibald Campbell 1816 in Monroe Co., VA (figures prominently in her mother's will) (7 children: William, John, Albert Wentworth, Allen Kincade, Robert, Margaret and Mary) 10. James Jones, Jr. (abt 1800 - ?); m. Nancy Myers 1828 in Monroe Co., VA -- no known children 11. Francis Jones (1802-1856); m. (?) Nancy Hendricks Ellis 1828 in Monroe Co., VA. (3 children: Mary, Jane, Amanda). In his will, James Jones refers to his granddaughters as illegitimate, so it is unclear whether Francis and Nancy ever were married. Francis also figures prominently in his mother's will -- he was not in her favor. 12. Nancy Jones (abt.1804-aft.1852); no marriage or children information. I have descendant information on many of these lines, but am always looking to flesh them out. For example, Mary Jones, dau. of Wm. & Martha Jones, m. Azariah Casdorph and their family settled in Charlottesville, WV. I have been in contact with some Casdorph cousins there. I am particularly interested in finding cousins/descendants living in/around Shelby and Monroe counties. Thanks and I hope to hear from some of you. Glenn C. Jones Roseville, CA
