Anita, You are right, there are 2 James Wriston. The James Wriston that married Rebecca Moles is my great great grandparents. The misunderstanding is the other James Wriston is the son of Zacariah Wriston. James & Rebecca had only one child, Almira Wriston who married Ulysses Grant Maynor. Janes & Rebecca Wriston and Grant & Almira Maynor are buried in the White Oak Cemetery (behind Lynn Maynor's house) at Artie, up White Oak Hollow, Clear Fork Valley, Raleigh County. I will email more information about the 2 James Wristons, later.

Now, I am confused. Zachariah Wriston does say in his will that he has a son named James. Do you know who this James was married to? I don't have any children for him. I have Almira Wriston(who md Ulysses Grant Maynor) as the d/o James Wriston and Rebecca Moles. 1880 census, Fayette Co. Kanawha District, Kingston Prec. Wriston, James 38 " Beckie 34 " Callaway 21 " Sarah 18 " Equilla 16 " Jennie 14 " Isaac 12 " Susan 6 " Mollie 4 " Margaret 1 Living beside Jasper Stover 42, & wife Jennie 52 Robert Wriston was given as the grandfather of Aquilla Wriston's birth and James listed as the father. This James Wriston was the s/o Robert Wriston and Keziah Scarboro. ----- Original Message ----- From: "G.L.
