I was wondering if anyone has a date of birth or death for Hannah LAVERTY, daughter of Sarah LAVERTY and William MASSEY. Rebecca Moore

I am searching for information on the Jarrell family. My grandfather, Ervan D. Coiner b. 8/10/1898. married Claudia Marie Jarrell ca 1918 in Raleigh County at Jarrell's Valley. I was told she died in childbirth but I am unsure if the child died also or was raised by Claudia Marie's family. If the child did not die, then I would like to find them. I do know that my Grandfather Ervan Coiner and Claudia Marie Jarrell were married and that she died in childbirth but I can find no documentation to prove this fact. Any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated. Lynn Coiner Stover

Hi: Is there a published Cemetery book(s) for Raleigh County? If so, does anyone have a copy that could do a look up? give info on a family cemetery? Thanks, Amber am1@stratos.net

Sandy, According to my "Giles County, Virginia History-Families" Vol 1 Dec. 8, 1835 Bond-Jacob Meadows and Elizabeth Gore; surety; Jacob Meadows and Henry Gore. Sorry to add to your confusion. Phyllis

Sandy, yes,no problem on forgiveness, your Meadows is something which can drive anybody crazy.My grandmother line goes back to Meadows and Lilly, both lines are closely tied together. There were so many and in the same area that they could not help but be related if they married anyone at all.The Lilly family reunion is so big at Beckley,Raleigh Co, WV that the gov. was there for one.

First, please forgive me for sending this to several lists, I need as wide an area as possible, please delete the duplicates, or triplicates and don't berate me!! We on the Meadows list have been working on a big problem that has arisen on which Jacob Meador/Meadows was married to several women and who were their fathers. The Jacob's were born in the mid to late 1700s. The various women include Sarah Berry Mary Overington Nancy Davis Roach-widow Miss Nossman If anyone has concrete proof on these men and their several wives please write to me, this is making me crazy!! Sandy in Fla

Hi Norma, I just found my "best friend" so I didn't know about the other Reunions, althought I have been in West Virgina every July for the last 10 years, or more, attending the McKinney & Graham reunions. I graduated in 1955. Hope to see you there next year. Until next year, Doris At 08:48 PM 16/03/1999 -0500, you wrote: >Doris, This will be the third reunion.

Hi All; I'm writing to say thank you to the ones who responded to my query yesterday about how to find the Shriners in Mount Hope . Following your advice I was able to get records of my Grandfather he died a very young man and no-one living today knows anything about him . The only way I knew he was a Shriner was by the emblem on his headstone . Thank You for your help Mary Shannon Neal

Sorry, didn't mean to send personal message thru list, promise to watch that from now on.. Thanks Ellie
