I've enjoyed reading the messages from the list. I was born in Beckley in 1950. (at the old Raleigh General Hospital). This is my question: My mother, Hazel ERWIN married my dad, Harlan E. MOHR at Harper on May 13, 1949. I have not been able to find a record of their marriage - although my mom's youngest sister and her husband (Dallas HINKLE and Sybil ERWIN) were witnesses. Is there anyone that I could contact who might do a search for me? Since I now live in Texas, this would be much appreciated. Thank you, Nina Mohr Christmas (yes, that really is my married name!)

I am sorry, but I don't have much information on the Blair family, but I am interested in your .... 2 Silvia Blair 1873 - 1957 who married + James Harvey Lee 1852. Do you know who James' parents were? Were they married in Raleigh County? I have some Lee relatives through my grandmother's side, but I don't have James Harvey Lee.

That is okay. At least we now know that he has a coal mining book, and I would love to have that as my other project is the WV Coal Mining Site at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~wvcoal/ Coal mining is a big part of our WV heritage. This site can use contributions too.

Mike, The News Notes for the Raleigh/Fayette Genealogical Society dated winter 2002 has a small paragraph on Daniel Shumate the original. It states that he is used as an ancestor for membership to SAR and DAR. The DAR at Mullens had some of the papers. It says he was an ensign in the Virginia militia in 1783 and lieutenant 1784. I know this is not your question but having tried to figure out the Shu mate and the James Ellison I, II, III, I wish you luck. Anyway I got some of my answers out of the Revolution War from the DAR.. Also someone in the Society may be able to help you. The Shumate and Ellison families have been printed a few times.
