Margie, Glad to meet you cousin! We share a ggg-grandfather Samuel H. Humphreys who was married to Grizelda Vance. My mother was Mary Susan Humphreys daughter of Robert Garland Humphreys and Ruth Compton. They lived outside of Union on the Knobb until the mid sixties. I don't have my Humphreys data in order just now but some of the information is on line at the Early Va/WV Genealogy-RainesResearch site Go to: www.sonic.net/~melvaw/raines.htm This will get you to the surname list, scroll down to Humphreys, then pick Thomas and you've got it right there back to the first Samuel . I'll get back in touch with you once I've got the files in order. Email me and let me know if this is your line-. Barbara Scott Jacobs
