Hi, After having been away from my family searching for quite sometime, plus losing much of my research, I am back, I would like to access Jeanette Simkin's site. She has done extensive research on Isaac Harman and descendants. Does anyone have her e-mail address or her web site? I would really appreciate it if you would send it to me. Una Kisamore . . . formerly allegewi2 . . . now . . . [email protected]

Thanks everyone, this has been very helpful. I've ordered dozens [and I'm not exagerating] of films and will get on this on if/when I get home.

A university professor who specializes on old German once told me that the name Haniorg (as seen in the records of St. Michael's Church) was a fairly common nickname. He said the derivation went like this: Johannes Georg = Hans Georg = Haniorg New subject - The Haniorg and George Rexrode (of various spellings) mentioned in those church records do not appear to me to be George Rexrode Sr., son of Johannes Zacharias Rexrode the Pioneer. The wives, when named, don't match; the baptism dates of the children don't fit; and the geographical location of the church makes it impractical for him to have attended there. Also, it was not George of Zach who lived on the headwaters of Black Thorn. That was his son. This is seen in various land deeds and in the will of George Jr. Bill Rexroad Hutchinson, Kansas

Karon, Wow, I'm jealous. That is such a lovely area. I was there for the first time last summer. I visit my gr-aunt in Belington each year and try to explore all the counties in my family history lines. I planned to return this summer but Uncle Sam has other ideas and I've been called to active duty for the year. I'm a reservist nurse who also happens to be a wife, grandmother of 3, mother of 5 and as you might imagine I'm not very happy to be away from home. To make my off time go by I've decided to try to make some headway on some of my family lines from Ft. Sam Houston, Tx.. Anyhow, enough about my plight. :-) I wonder what one would have to do to "make" those marriage bonds accessible. With technology as it is it just doesn't seem like an impossible job for some historical society members. To me that would be a dream trip. To spend a month scanning the documents and then storing them in a proper way that would help prevent their deterioration would be a wonderful opportunity and something I'd love to do. After seeing the crates of documents that the Greenbrier Co. Courthouse put into their dumpster [they were then taken out by the historical society] to be taken to the dump I try to think of how I might be able to help. Obviously I can't do anything now, but do you think it could be planned and carried out if some volunteers were found? It would be something to look forward to in the next few years. Even if I didn't find the signature I want or other clues I need it would be a labor of love. Ok, here is the info I have from Harter's book: John Brady signed the marriage bond as "John Bready," on July 30, 1805. John Bready/Brady is my gggggrandfather and he was quit a itchy footed guy. He grew up in Berks Co. Pa., moved to Pendleton Co. for about 7 years, and then to Randolph Co. Va after the death of his wife in about 1806, and finally Lewis Co. where he died in 1850. I've been luck enough to find a signature of his in Berks Co. on a document from his fathers will. His father died when he was 16yrs old. And then another signature from 1842 in Lewis Co. Va.. It would be great to prove further if I had this in between time signature to lock my proof together. Thanks so much for responding!

This does not imply that John Bready was married or had a wife. A John Brady did marry in Pendleton County on 17 April 1828 (Marriage Record 1:22).

The marriage bonds of Pendleton County that Mary Harter used for her first book are available via microfilm through the LDS Family History Centers. These are housed in the Archives at WV University and includes the original bonds with signatures and consents. When Jackie Puffenberger retyped Mary's book she included all the corrections that I made after proof-reading from the microfilm of the originals. Generally these were mis-read names. The second major set of bonds are entered in a Marriage Bond book which is housed in the County Clerk's office. This is a ledger style book from 8 July 1843 to 20 July 1853. Mary included all of these in her 2nd book and the original Bond Book is also available on microfilm. Mary's 2nd book also includes many loose bonds which are not available to the public. We are VERY fortunate that most of the Pendleton County records have been microfilmed and are available to us. The only major missing record group is the marriage record before 1800. Also, during the early 1900's many loose bonds were given to family members, etc. Mary recorded all that she could find at the court house and I am sure was very thorough since the staff was fully cooperating with this project. While the records after 1853 are available, they are ledgers arranged by the date the info was entered and in small handwriting. There is NO alphabetical index so it is very difficult to send someone to search for a specific record. NOTE: virtually no records exist for the Civil War years when Franklin was often occupied by military forces--both sides. During the 1860's there is a group of Pendleton County marriages, performed in the North Fork region by Rev. Asa Harman, that were recorded in Tucker County. Perhaps it was a safer road to travel to a court house.

Cara, I live just outside town. The original marriage bonds are not accessible, but Mary Harter copied them and published them. Later some others were found. I have a copy of Mary Harter's two books -- Marriage Bonds and Marriage Records, that cover 1788-1853. I also have Jackie Puffenbarger's book which compiles both of Mary's works plus has the records that were found later. I will look up in them for you if you send me the names. If it is after 1853, I can check in the court house. Before 1788, you will have to look in Augusta County, VA records. Sometimes I 'm a little slow, but I will try to do it asap. Koren-Fae Rev.

Does anyone on this list live in the area near the Pendleton Co. Courthouse? I need to get a copy of a marriage bond from the early 1800s and don't expect I'll be able to get to the courthouse this year. Has the courthouse copied the old bonds? Cara

Where is it documented that Anna Maria Voegel, wife of Johannes Zacharias Rexroth, died before he went down the Shenandoah valley to Virginia? Where is her death documented at all? Where is it documented that Zach Sr. took a second wife whose name was Catherine? Walter Eye's book does not count. Bill Rexroad Hutchinson, Kansas

Another (small) printing of Walter Eye's book on Rexrode was done a year or so ago. Copies sell for $70 each, which includes shipping. Order from: Leslie Harper 2116 Courtland Street Waynesboro, VA 22980 His phone number is 540-949-4488 Bill Rexroad Hutchinson, Kansas

On Walter Eye's books. The only one I am familiar with is the Simmons one that I was stupid enough to buy. It is worthless, don't waste any time on it. My whole family, beginning with the first one was wrong. It is the only book I ever bought that I threw away because it was so bad. Jean

Where did you find the Propst book? I have been looking all over for it!! I called Mr. Eye's sister yesterday and she told me that the Dayton, VA Historical Society had all of the extra copies of his books. When I called them, they told me they had the Hoover, Crummett and Simmett books. Their phone number is 540-879-2681. Teresa Are any of these "Walter Eye" books still in print? I have the one for the Propst but that's it. What others family books does he have in print and how reliable are they. Thanks, Gene

Thanks, Gene >>> [email protected] 01/26/03 05:30PM >>> Bill, I have the Rexrode book written by Walter Eye. He lists three children by the pioneer Johannes Zacharias Rexrode, (Feb. 22, 1725-1799) and his first wife Anna Marie Voegel, ( - died about 1760) Married Nov. 19, 1751 in Tulpehocken, Burke County, PA. Came to Virginia about 1760-1762. Then seven by his second wife Catherine _____. I am guess that Anna must of died in childbirth as he lists her death in 1760 and the birth of Johann George in 1760. Then there is another child listed as born in 1761, so he must of remarried very quickly. Johann George Rexrode (1760-about 1835) m. Margaret Elizabeth Hevener about 1780 - was in Pendleton County in Census of 1830, then to Highland County. Lived on headwaters of Black Thorn - records at St. Michaels Lutheran Church, Sugar Grove, WV., listed George as Haniorg - German for George ? I don't know if this information will help you at all, but might give you a place to seach for more records. If I can help you any more from this book let me know.

There has appeared on this list conflicting information about Peter Thomas Hull and his wife. The latest message (from [email protected]) has Susan Dieffenbach as his wife. What is the consensus? And is there any documentation superior to this? I greatly appreciate its posting but the wife, Susan Dieffenbach, whom I also had as the wife, is not consistent with other postings. -- [email protected] Dan Hamrick 402 23rd Street NW Canton OH 44709-3818 Telephone: 330-454-2376 This was sent to me by a former Regent of the DAR, she was most helpful to me in my Perkins of Greenbrier County research. Betty Jane Perkins One of the most colorful couples to decorate the landscape of early Greenbrier county was George and Hannah (Keister) Hull. George and Hannah were among the first non-native Americans born west of the Shenandoah Mountains. = George Hull was born October 15, 1757 in August= a County, Virginia and Hannah Keister was born in what is now Pendleton County, West Virginia the same year. George's father, Peter Thomas (a widower) had immigrated from Germany in 1742 with two sons. He married Susannah Dieffenbach in Pennsylvania a= and moved into the Valley of Virginia. George's half-brother, Peter, was prominent in the political and military life of early Western Virginia. It was he who anglicized the family name from Hohl (with an umlaut over the o) to Hull. George Hull's native language was German, but he learned English and also spoke a little of the Shawnee Indian dialect. Hannah Keister, on the other hand, was the daughter of Friedrich Keister - who served in the American Revolution as a lieutenant. Hannah's maternal grandfather was Roger Dyer. = Roger was murdered by Shawnee Chief Killibuck at the infamous Fort Seybert Massacre on April 28, 1758. Family tradition states that Hannah's mother (Hannah Dyer Keister) hid with her behind large rocks and overheard the pitiful cries of friends and relatives being tomahawked to death. George Hull, Sr. served four tours of duty in The American Revolution as an Indian spy and scout. He was sent back to guard the home front after= r some Indians murdered women working in a hemp field. He was in the Battle of Jamestown and on the Yorktown Peninsula before the close of the Revolution. George Hull married Hannah Keister in about 1781, probably at the Old Props Lutheran Church in Pendleton County. = They had all their nine children before moving into Greenbrier County about 1812. Their children were: 1. Elizabeth (b. 1782) m. David Bird. Geor= ge Washington (b. Feb. 14, 1787) m. Polly Ann Smith. Rachel (b. 17= 93) m. Joseph Smith (bro. to Polly Ann). 4.

Charle= s Perkins ( my ggg grandfather) = 8 Jesse (b. 1802) m. Elizabeth Ann = Cleek James Keister (b. 1806) - never married. some of their children moved to Greenbrier with them. George Hull was a major in the 79th Regiment of the Greenbrier Militia. The militia protected the homes and families of old Greenbrier County. In March, 1818 George was on jury duty at the courthouse. The case involved a charge brought against a lady whose servant had "used insolent language and threatened the life of said plaintiff". The jur y found the sassy soul guilty as charged and the jailor inflicted 39 lashes on his bare back. Lashes - well laid on- were a standard punishment for less serious crimes in early Greenbrier. We find old George Hull again in the Greenbrier courthouse in September 1832. Then he came to apply for his Revolutionary War Pension as an o= ld man. "I am frail in both body and mind and therefore I cannot recolle= ct the minutia of my services." he deposed. Nonetheless George Hull live= d until September, 1849 and drew his $32.00 monthly pension until he died. Hannah preceded George in death by several years. The two of them are buried in unmarked graves on what was once part of the family plantation, but is now a part of the Monongahela National Forest. George and Hannah Hull were large land holders in the Anthony's Creek District. There is also a biography of George Hull, Jr. and Polly Ann Smith, submitted by Graydon Smales Love (SAR Number 142549) **This is the brothe= r of Hannah who married Charles T Perkins. George and Hannah named their first son after both his father and The Guardian of the Western Frontier; George Washington Hull, Jr.. Washington's work to secure the Virgina Frontier from Indian attack had made him a hero to Greenbrier County long before The Revolution. George, Jr. married Polly Ann Smith (daughter of William Smith and Mary Ann Wright) on August 9, 1812. = They moved from Anthony's Creek into t= he part of Greenbrier county that later became Fayette County, West Virginia..
