Seems to me I saw a sign that said "PACO" not too long ago.. could you be looking for that instead of PECO? Is there some one that knows where Paco is? I think I saw a sign that read Paco just last week driving through the area. I am not from there, just remember seeing a sign with that name on it. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~firebird/Coil.htm pamrooney@prodigy.net ----- Original Message ----- From: <Birish644@aol.com> To: <WVPENDLE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: November 15, 1999 9:48 PM Subject: Re: IS PECO (TOWN) IN PENDLETON? > Rich, > > Thanks for checking. > > Betty >

Nothing listed in my W.Va. Gazetteer for "Peco" ... Maybe someone else will know if it formerly existed or just isn't listed for some reason.

Stephanie, Thank you so much for going to all the trouble of locating the Eagle house. My gr. gr. grandfather, George W. Hill, lived next door to them. Could you describe the house enough so a stranger could find it? Again, thanks, Diane Hill Zimmerman Tichenor, Stephanie wrote: > I was in Pendleton County this weekend to visit my grandparents.

I was in Pendleton County this weekend to visit my grandparents. I drove to Upper Tract to see if I could find your house. The Eagle house is still standing. It's on 220. Stephanie Tichenor 558-8551

However, once they get in there it's hard to If one defines documentation as simply telling where you got the information, whether it is "Pend. Co. Marriages 1800, page 10," "family records kept by Aunt Minnie" or "Joe Bob's web page at www.joebob.com" then there is absolutely no reason not to document EVERY statement of fact and item entered into your database. If you genealogical software does not allow you to note specifically where you received what, then perhaps you should look for a method that does. The genealogical database I have used for 10+ years through several versions of DOS allowed me to place a number to the right of each line of info (birth, death, buried, etc.) and it was a simple matter in the notes/comments section to put lines that started with that number: 1) Tombstone in Oak Cemetery, Mytown, GA. More modern programs are much more sophisticated in handling footnotes, but either method accomplishes the same result--you can tell where you got the information. While automated databases are nice, if you truly want to include every tidbit you have and to be able to discuss everything with total flexibility, any word processor is the answer. The Hinkle data has always been in this format with different files for each colonial line. Granted, it is arranged by common ancestor and then uses the NGS modified numbering system. I also have an unidentified file which is arranged by geographic location. Thus, if someone asks about a Hinkle not identified in an established family, we can search by location for possible other information. I had a response that documentation of all facts is an ideal, not a practical reality. The current issue of the NGS Quarterly is devoted to documentation and should be read by everyone. IF you do not know where you acquired a name/date/link, how can you tell if it might be accurate? Or more accurate than mine? Historically, we have names of famous genealogists that invented not only dates and names, but entire English parishes so that their clients would be happy with the results. The old-timers on the list will remember when we used to have "he said" "she said" exchanges that accomplished nothing but filling up all of our in-boxes. We recently had another example. How many messages did we all read that said, "My info says Susie" while another person wrote "My info says Mary" (or whatever names were involved.) We never did learn why anyone believed their information was more correct than the others! <G> So many, many published books have mixed up the Pendleton County families badly!!! Especially Morton's History of Pendleton County. Unless you keep track, you will not know the right stuff from the wrong, Morton's from the original will books. A practical example--my data has Susie Smith born 1 Jan 1850 because her marriage record shows she was aged 22-2-2. You have her death certificate which shows she was born 28 Dec. 1849. Knowing the particulars, it is easy to speculate that perhaps this was her age when she obtained the license and not on her actual wedding day. We really do not have to debate the subject very long. Julia, I am sure this answered far more that you asked but did want to clarify. Many of you are just beginning and I guarantee within one year you will find an instance of saying "where did I get that date?" or spend hours in the library because you now want to photocopy the information and cannot remember which book "I think it was red and on this shelf!" <G> It is so hard to make a database spot blank when it was once filled, but if you want to be able to TRUST your genealogical database, you MUST include a source citation for everything there.

Evelyn I have a Sarah Jane FLESHER b, 1819 OH, who married a John DUNKLE abt 1839. This is the same FLESHER group that has a JANES connection. Sarah Jane had a brother, Adam, who married Elizabeth SIMMONS in 1831 Fayette Ohio. This couple had a dau. Amanda who married Henry C. JANES (son of William h., son of Edward and Elizabeth FLESHER JANES). (Confusing as it is, Elizabeth is Adam FLESHER'S aunt----just a little part of the tree that doesn't branch!)

We have Number 1, Vaolume 1, of THE HERALD newspaper, published 31 Aug 1929, in Franklin, Pendleton Co., WV. The following article is transcribed from that issue. ************** 28 WANT TO WED IN '29 Twenty-eight couples have been issued marriage licenses since January 1, according to E.W. Dolly, county clerk of Pendleton county. The combined ages of these couples totaled 1,418 years, the total ages of the men being 763 years, while the sum of the ages of the women was 655 years. Women were found to marry earlier in life than men, the average age of marriage for the women of Pendleton county being 23.4 years while the average age at which men married in Pendleton county this year was 27.2. The oldest man to apply for a marriage license was 50 years old, and the oldest woman was 49 years of age. The youngest man to desire matrimony was 19, and the youngest woman was 16.

The people are so friendly and helpful and the area is clean and free from pollution. I haven't been to Franklin, but have been thru Seneca Rocks on my way to Harman. Just last year, I got to visit the Germany Valley and see the log cabin that Isaac Harman the first built for his bride in the 1780s. I felt that the Germany Valley was just spectacular and I was there in August. I'd love to see it in the fall with the leaves in their fall colors. I've travelled from Nova Scotia to Florida and almost to the Mississippi, but I'll take the northeastern section of WVA any day. It's so pretty. Evelyn Roy

Hi All! My computer's been down for several days, so I'm catching up. Before I retired & moved to Las Vegas, I lived in annandale, VA for about 13 years. Every chance I got, I'd "head for the hills" and go exploring West Virginia (this was before I even started genealogy). I loved it.....the mountains, greenery, clean air, small towns. About 6 months ago I discovered that my paternal ancestors were from Pendleton County! No wonder I love WV....it's in my genes!!!!! I'm researching the BORROR/BORRER and JUDY/TSCHUDI families. Jacob BORER was my 1st WV ancestor. Don't know when he arrived but he died in 1778 in Hampshire Co. His son Thomas BORRER is my 6-great-grandfather. He was born about 1758 in PA; died 1810, Pendleton County. Andrew BORRER was born about 1774. In 1798 he married Mary CONOVER/COHONOVEN in Pendleton County. My grgrgr grandfather Ichabod BORRER/BOYER was born in May 1811. Sometime after that Andrew and family moved to Jackson co., OH and between 1837-1840 Ichabod moved to Warren County, Indiana. Other than what I've stated here, I've have been able to find NOTHING on Andrew or Mary. I can't even find any Conover/Cohonoven in Pendleton Co. Would anybody out there know anything about the elusive Andrew and Mary?? I'm desperate to fill in this generation....have lots of info before and after Andrew. Will query about JUDYs later. This is too long as it is. Thanks for listening. Betteann in Las Vegas

When mine were about 2 and 3 we stopped along the road to watch Momma Pig and a lot of little piglets. Adding to Koren's comments, the book "'Twixt North and South," pp. 53-54, does tell us that there were hospitals in Franklin during the Civil War. The Union forces used several homes during their occupation of Franklin, and perhaps their most noteworthy hospital was the Union Church, Franklin's only church at the time. The pews were used to make coffins, as long as they lasted. Presumably, once the occupying forces left, so did the hospital.

Hello: My personal and work email go directly to my office so it doesn't matter which one you use. I must have typed it in wrong before. I took Band instead of typing. gphares@nilfisk-advance.com (work) genep@sihope.com (home) Billy's uncle Lester Brown Vance married my aunt Marie (Raines) so I spent a fair amount of time up Roaring visiting Mason and Bertha. Unfortunately, Marie died just this summer. I was back in the summer and caught her shortly before she died. My dad and Bill's dad Marvin was without question the two best fishermen in the county. I don't know how much of that Bill and I inherited??? I moved to Minnesota 14 years ago and have been fishing in the land of 10,000 lakes. I do miss fishing Roaring, Seneca, and Brushy Run. Me, I am related to the Vances from my mom' sides through John A. Vance, the civil war soldier that you guys had the new tombstone made for. My grandmother was was Millie (Propst) Phares from Upper Tract so I'm related to the Simmons and Propsts from the South fork area as well. I've been trying to straighten out the Propst's and Simmons but I'm still light years from it and that's a topic for another day. Anyway, gotta get back to work. Take care and maybe we'll run into each other the next time I get back to Pendleton co.
