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. In the 1900 Raleigh County census, James Wriston, the s/o of Zachariah and Oma, has died. His widow, Rebecca, is living in HH 36 in Clear Fork District. She states that she is 60 years old, and had 10 children, with 6 living. Living in her household are the following: Callancy C. b. Jan 1860, 40 years old Farm Laborer Maggie L. b. Jun 1880 19 years old Maried 6 years Belyira b. Dec 1897 2 years old Granddaughter HH # 39 James Wriston, s/o Reason Wriston and Rachel Scarbrough James b. March 1840 60 years old Married 34 yrs. Rebecka Moles b. Feb 1846 54 They state they had 9 children, with only 1 living Living next door to James, who was called "Good Jim" Wriston, is his only living daughter, Almira, who is married to Grant Maynor. Grant and Almira are my Great-grandparents. I believe that the James and Rebecca Wriston who are buried in the White Oak Cemetery behind Lynn Maynor's house is Zachariah's son, James. The reason I believe this is that I know for a fact that there is a Rebecka Moles who is buried beside James Moles in the Moles Cemetery at Artie. Rebecka Moles spelled her name with a "k" in it, and that is how it was spelled on her stone. I suspect that her husband James is buried there too, but can't recall seeing his grave. The cemetery has been vandalized several times, and Rebecka's stone was broken into two pieces. Sue
