I hate to be the bearer of bad news. but from what I've heard, most of the records at the court house in Mon county have been removed to an underground vault in PA. Those of us who live here don't even have access to them anymore. I might suggest you contact the WVU Library_WVU Libraries: Home_ (http://www.libraries.wvu.edu/) _WVU Libraries: West Virginia Collection: Guide to Genealogical Research_ (http://www.libraries.wvu.edu/wvcollection/genealogy/) _West Virginia Vital Research Records - Select Search Type_ (http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_select.aspx) The above are three links that MAY help you some.
