I've "rescued" an old photograph of Olive TALLMAN which was taken when she was 14 years old and sent to her Mother, Mrs. P. A. TALLMAN in Tariff, West Virginia on the back of a postcard. The photograph was taken along with a group of young men and women as notes "Dear Mama, I am sending you my picture. All these go to school but two." signed Olive. An "X" on the photograph indicates which one is Olive. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding Olive and her family: Olive TALLMAN was b. 24 or 27 Apr 1894 in Roane Co., WV to parents Peter A. TALLMAN (1856-1931) and Martha Josephine FERRELL (1860-1923). Olive was one of 11 children born to this couple including, Eliza Myrtle; William Smith; Orva or Orvia or Orvie; George G.; Clay Spencer; Olive; Clyde W.; Franklin Pascal; Brooks Bryan; Charles Cameron "Trusty"; Frank Pierce; and Boles TALLMAN, all born between 1880 and 1902. Olive married Guy G. DOWDY (1889-1980) in 1916 in Wood, WV and together they had 2 children including a son, Charles Tallman DOWDY (1920-2007). Olive died 1 Aug 1978 in Columbus, OH. Census records provide the following details: 1900 census of Smithfield, WV: Peter A. TALLMAN, age 44, born Feb 1856, married 20 years, born WV, parents born WV, a Farmer Martha J. TALLMAN, wife, age 40, born May 1860, 9 children/7 living, born WV, parents born VA Orvie TALLMAN, dau, age 14, born Dec 1885, born WV George TALLMAN, son, age 12, born Jan 1888, born WV Clay TALLMAN, son, age 10, born Feb 1890, born WV Clyde TALLMAN, son, age 8, born Apr 1892, born WV Olive TALLMAN, dau, age 6, born May 1894, born WV Brooks TALLMAN, son, age 3, born Jul 1896, born WV Boles TALLMAN, son, age 8 months, born Sept 1899, born WV 1910 census of Smithfield, WV: Peter A.

Dear researchers at WVRoane, roots web, I am looking for the PARENTS of James Newton Jordan. He seems to have gone by Newton Jordan. He was born in Spencer on April 14, 1841. He married Hannah Saffrona Westfall in Roane County on April 14, 1876. He moved his young family to Fredonia, Kansas shortly after his youngest son Perry Frederick Jordan (my grandfather) was born in 1887. James Newton Jordan died in Fredonia, Kansas in 1889. After his death, Hannah Saffrona (née Sophronia) Jordan filed, on July 7, 1892, with the probate court of Roane County, to be guardian of their children so they could collect an inheritance from their deceased father, J N Jordan. There may have been a farm he left behind in Roane County and I am speculating it was sold so his children could collect $1,000.00 in 1892. If there was property like this, perhaps it's Deed lists the previous owners which I hope may include the names of James Newton Jordan's parents or other relatives. Thank you for your help.
