    1. Re: [WVMONROE] YOUNG emma
    2. Sandy, I have this for Emma F. Young: b. July 1855 married 2 May 1878 Summers Co. Va. Washington Greenkee Meadows . Both listed as 22 years of age at time of marriage. Children: James Wilbur b. 1882 Ida M. b. 1884 Charles H. 1885 John Sydney b. 1889 W. Greenkee and Emma are both listed for the first time as a couple in the 1880 census of W.Va. In the census of 1900 W.Va. Cabin Creek district of Kanawha County they are listed with their 4 children. By the 1910 Census of West Virginia Malden District: Green Meadows 54 yrs and Emma 54 yrs are listed with son Wilbur 28 yrs his wife Laura 21 years , gdaughter Marsella 2yrs and Green's oldest son Sydney (John) age 21 years lists him as single. The census sates that Wilbur and Laura have been married 4 years. In a 1920 Census of West Virginia Malden District #6 it lists that G.W.Meadows is living in the household of his son John (Wilbur) and his wife Laura and their two daughters Marcella and Leona. G.W. is 64 years old and is a widower. Emma must have died sometime after 1910. The census states that G.W. was a carpenter with the R. R. and was born in W.Va. Death of Washington Greenkee Meadows was reported by his son John Wilbur Meadows. to be on Nov. 17, 1935 in Witcher W.Va. at the age of 80 years , 4 months and 20 days. This account lists his occupation as a handle maker and his birth place as Summers County. It lists his father as Harvey Meadows and his mother as Martha Boone? I never have been able to figure that out.!!! What I would give to have this much inforamtion on Harvey E. Meadows, Washington Greenkee's father. Debbie in So.
