This couple is in Battelle Twp, Monongalia County in the 1900 census. Their daughter was born late 1900 after the census. In this census, the # of years married is zero, so they were married in 1899 or 1900. Mary was born in Harrison COunty Ohio about 1877 , daughter of Jeptha BARGAR and Sarah Spiker. He was born in Canada about Dec 1864, son of John WOOD and Mary COLWELL. Harvey was an oil pumper in 1900. He had 2 borthers in law who were oil drillers- James R Grant and RObert Cook. They both moved around quite a bit - Venango, PA to Cattaraugus, NY to Findlay, Hancock Ohio, to Ritchie ,West Virginia. James Grant was in Ritchie by about 1898 and then Harrison Co so I was wondering if Harvey was with them. Mary had a brother in Hancock Co WV so they might have been married there too. I did check the marriage film for Harrison CO Ohioo and they weren't there. I would appreciate it if you would check Monongalia co and Hancock Co for me if you have books for them. I checked Harrison on the state database website. I am not sure where else to check. I appreciate your help. Joanna
